Epoch Games is currently recruiting for graphic designers to fill the role of UI Artist! (Note: We are a volunteer team and cannot offer pay)

Our current project is called Lays of Althas: Sundered Order. LoA: SO is a single-player, medieval-low-fantasy RPG being developed utilising Epic Games' Unreal Engine 4, for Windows PCs. The game is set to feature an expansive, living world that will evolve and grow by itself, instead of revolving around the player’s actions. The game is currently planned to be released Chapter by Chapter, with each bringing new regional content and gameplay features.

As this project is very large in scope, we are constantly on the search for new team-members in order to help us further our vision to create an immersive and fun RPG. As our team is comprised of volunteers who work at their own pace, we do not expect full-time work, but some degree of dedication to the project is expected. Interested individuals should visit our forums and post an application under the Applications subforum (a link is provided below).

Additional information about Epoch Games and the Lays of Althas: Sundered Order may be found on our respective IndieDB pages:

We are currently working on implementing the base gameplay mechanics, and as such, require an UI designer who is able to design and create 2d assets for the game. Apart from graphic designers, our team is also still recruiting for 3d Modellers.
In addition to the basic skills required for each particular post, a list of skills that would be required include:

-A solid grasp of English. Our team uses English as our main means of communication. As our team is international, perfect English is not expected, but it is required in order to coordinate.
-Dedication. As mentioned above, we do not expect full-time work, but some degree of constancy is required.
-Team-working skills. Team members must be able to work well with others.
-Skype account. Our team conducts meetings and coordination through Skype, and while it is not required for team members to be online all the time, it is advisable to have an account linked to our developer-chat.

For applicants, please note that we usually conduct interviews (generally through Skype) and require a portfolio of some kind in order to keep up with quality control.

If additional information is required, we may be reached by our IndieDB page(s) or forums. I may personally be reached through PM or at my email at runescaperian@gmail.com - I will be glad to answer any questions about our team and project. We will also reply to any posts on this thread.

Some examples of our previous work: (All assets are original. Note that environmental work is outdated - the images were taken in CryEngine, and we have since switched to Unreal Engine 4)
