Cocked, looking for an animator and programmer (UDK) (Forums : Recruiting & Resumes : Cocked, looking for an animator and programmer (UDK)) Locked

Hi all,

My name's Martin Donald, I'm a sound designer and composer and I've been working solo on a UDK project of my own for the past few weeks.

Premise
The game is called 'Cocked' and it's an adult comedy based around a gun-weilding cockerel who finds himself in all sorts of unlikely scenarios which he must blast, platform and puzzle his way out of. The game is also cell-shaded for the most part.

Positions

I'm not recruiting a full team for now, just people to carry out essential tasks to get the game into a playable state, later on a texture artist and perhaps a modeller will be required, but for now here's what I'm after.

Animator - The characters (most importantly the main character) need animating and put into the game. Getting our hero animated and turned into a usable pawn is the biggest priority.

Programmer(s) - I need someone to lay out the gameplay's foundations (ie, classes for a health system, pickups, inventory, weapons etc). A firm grasp of UnrealScript is really essential here.

When the game finally goes to commercial release anyone who contributes towards the completion of the game will of course be entitled to a proportional amount of royalties.

The Game Thus Far
Here is the layout of a level I made in UDK which is designed to slot directly into the finished game, it's the first section of a level named 'Chickenburger Hill' and it's set in (you guessed it!) 1960's Vietnam.

So that should give you an quick idea as to how the game is played out, screenshots of that level can be seen on the image I put at the beginning of this thread.

If anyone's interested in getting involved with this don't hesitate to contact me via the contact details below and I'll give you all the info you need to get started,

Various Screenshots! (because everyone loves screenshots)

Our Hero

A Golden Egg, you collect these to unlock new levels, like the gold stars in Mario 64/Galaxy.

A crate of Whoop-Ass! In Chickenburger Hill these are what you fire from the mortar cannon.

Hope you all like what you see!

This is one of the greatest concepts I've ever seen, good luck!

Haha, thanks very much!

Think I can get by without an animator for now, here's a vid of our hero fully rigged in my green 'test-room', just being 'idle':

Still in dire need of a programmer though, if anyone's interested in getting involved with this project don't hesitate to drop me an email or skype me!
