So i started a mod back in sometime around 2013. Gained quite a bit of traction too! Around 300 fans and no one was more bummed to let them down but work on it slowed to a halt unfortunately. This mod was conceived in my my college dorm and unfortunately I didnt really have the hardware or the team to make serious progress. We do have some really nice concepts by the talented Jesse Markonnen though (who is behind the sleeper indie hit silence of the sleep, go check it out Silenceofthesleep.com) He did several very nice paintings that should give you a fairly good idea what im going for. But basically this is a twist on the zombie genre. What if instead of the outbreak being completely out of the blue someone knew about it? That is to say, some kind of contingency was put into place? I know 2012 is probably coming to mind for a lot of of you and that's sort of what im actually going for.. more or less minus john cusack's crazy antics haha. But yeah, anyway sort of zombie apoclapyse and your goal is to find your way to a big ark.. But you'r not out of it yet, as the ark wouldn't be entirely safe. At this point things would start to sort of take on a dead space feel.. It would probably be around 70/30 mix of outdoor to indoor. Gameplay wise it would be about exploration and using your surroundings. No going in guns blazing. Combat would be fairly minimal. Going off the "using your surroundings theme" you would be able to you know use things you find as improvised weapons but the emphasis is really sort on survival and taking a smart approach to things. You wouldn't be some super soldier, just an ordinary person caught up in an unordinary situation. I really want to kind of recreate the feeling of of found footage movies. Along those lines there would be a very minimal ui, if any. Emphasis would be on conserving what you have. So right now, im looking for a team to make this happen. I would handle most of the visual desiggn. |

Very Interesting. I like your idea alot. Sounds sort of like the typical Dayz kind of visuals you are looking for but without the guns and the weapons etc. When you say you will handle visuals do yo mean you would be doing the concept and modelling etc on your own? If not, send me a message dude and let's talk about this further. (here is some of my work to show you my skill). |

I Would love to hear more about the game and possibly chime in with some ideas too. I am looking for some sound design work (SFX/Ambient/Score) so let me know what you're looking for and I can throw some stuff together for you. |

Yeah, I can see somebody beat me to it But I'd like to offer my music services myself. I think i'd be able to make something cool for this. I can do some SFX too. -- I write, compose, record, produce and play music. If you have anything to record, mix, write etc. You have me! Looking specifically for a bigger game project. |
