Aeon Versus needs a Conceptual Designer and 3D Artist job

Prelude:

Many of you have likely visited our previous post and after much consideration and discussion with the team, and based on the feedback I have received across multiple platforms, we are pivoting our project, and I think you'll appreciate the direction...let's begin.

A bit about me, the founder, I went to school for animation and focused on conceptual design out of college. I can model, animate, etc, etc, but my love is painting. I worked in the industry on 2 titles over 3 years and unfortunately, the 2008 crash took out the company I was involved with and I had to leave the industry in 2009 to pursue other economic options. Since that time, I have worked in many different areas, most recently in app development as an art director. However, nothing has ever been as fulfilling as creating games and I have yearned to return to it. So here I am, not just making a game, but building a company.

The Project:

This will be an up to one-year project to create an arena game for pre-release on Steam. The project is narrowly focused on creating two complete playable character types in one environment in a 1v1 battle. Think of it as the Dark Souls of WoW arena.

Development needs:

• A talent tree system with two specializations--one melee, and one magic.
• A PvP combat system.
• A movement and mobility system.
• A resource management system (stamina/mana).
• Targeting, hit detection, and collision.
• A matchmaking system.

Requirements:

• Experience with Unreal Engine 5
• Strong passion for game development.
• Excellent communication and teamwork skills.
• Demonstrated skills in respective fields.
• Availability for one weekly meeting with updates.
• Willingness to dedicate time and effort to the project.

After this project is complete:

If you choose to stay with the team, we will be adding:

• An elo system.
• A lobby system.
• Socialization features (lobby and game chat).
• Three additional character types.
• A character creation system.
• 15 additional classes (talent specializations).
• Additional arenas.
• Expanding team sizes to include 2v2, 3v3, and 5v5 combat.
• Creation of a system of in-game rewards that can be used to level up your gear.
• Creation of a system to purchase cosmetic items for your characters.

Eventually leading up to the creation of battlegrounds with 10v10/25v25 and if it takes off, even a massive army vs army with as many as 200+ player involvement.

And much more...

All of this will be a stand-alone game but, and here is the kicker, this is essentially a prototype for a much larger experience and we plan to institute this system into an MMORPG that can communicate across both games making these arenas and battlegrounds accessible to players that don't want the RPG grind, but love the combat.

Note:

This will be a passion project at the start. We are submitting our project for crowdfunding and there will be Company Share and Rev Share according to the quality and quantity of work that is submitted. My goal is to get devs paid asap. I want this to be a company (not just a project) that recognizes hard work and dedication.
