Create games together

Project A

A dystopic futuristic FPS game set in 2062

Project Overview:

Set in 2062, in the middle of several security crises, an international intelligence agency which has been secretly operating since the 20th Century will have to neutralize the threats so as to ensure safety for its country-members.

PLEASE, KEEP IN MIND THAT WE ARE A SMALL TEAM AND WE ARE STILL DESIGNING THE GAME. WE HAVE NOT REACHED THE DEVELOPMENT STAGE SO WE WILL NOT BE ABLE TO EMPLOY ALL THE STAFF.

Game Details

Language/Software: UNITY / C#

Theme/Setting: FUTURE

Genre: FPS

Musical Direction: The music must be appealing and will have to "tell a message", so it must be coherent with the different moments of the story.

Artistic Direction: Regarding the visual field of our game, the Art director will have to find a balance between detail and efficiency. Our aim, however, is to make photorealistic environments.

Marketing Details

Payment Terms: SPLIT REVENUE

Target Market: As this game is going to be kind of violent, the age range will start from teenagers. Also, translation is a useful tool to reach other markets.

Profit Plan: AS WE ARE STILL IN THE DESIGN STAGE OF OUR GAME, THIS IS SOMETHING WE HAVE YET TO DISCUSS.
