Dark Phantom Studio
Hello Everyone my name is Steven Barrion and I am the co-founder of Dark Phantom Studios, which is a group consisting of B.A. graduates and students from the United States and the UK that have taking game design (Art) , graphic design, and animation courses over the years. My co-founder Donnell Gammage and I have done various school projects together, freelance work, and are always pushing each other talents to the limit, and decided to take what we have learn from our courses and put them into various mod projects to get our break into the industry. This is our first project we have done outside of school using the UDK engine, and are always learning new techniques to make our mod look superb.
Project name:
Revelations: The Chronicles of Jericho Fox
Brief description:
"Revelations: The Chronicles of Jericho Fox," is a UT3 total conversion mod that tells of Armageddon from the New Testament Revelations brought by the Egyptian god deity of Chaos and Storms Seth. This mod will merge both Egyptian and biblical testaments into a story driving third person shooter that will fulfill the player's knowledge as well as intense action in the mythological world of the Egyptian gods.
You play as Jericho Fox a French archeologist and well known theft to most, who is cursed with immortality by the god deity of the Sky Horus for bringing the world's end by releasing Seth from the Urns of Ra in London, England on January 1, 1912. Now Jericho has become the weapon of Horus, and with the aid of the warriors of the Heru Temple known as the, "Wadjet of Ra," He will have to continue the war that split Egypt into two nations since the beginning of the 1st dynasty. Jericho must collect pieces of the urn of Isis (Urns of Ra), which is the sister urn of Osiris, that is scattered throughout the world before Seth merges the three dimensions of Heaven, Earth, and Hell to bring the Apocalypse to fruition. His cursed path for redemption is the world's only chance for salvation.
Target aim:
The target audience is generally a male audience between the ages of 17 to 35 that are big third person shooter fans and also action adventure games that are somewhat platform based. This game will bring a combination of both gender types that they would enjoy.

Team Work Expected:
We are a hard working team that are all dedicated in producing work to push this project as well as to help ourselves gain exposure. We all have our share to complete, and work on the project when we have the time too.

Technology:
Target system: Windows
Engine: UDK Engine Mar 2011
Programming language and/or tools: C++/Unreal Script, and ActionScript 2.0
Artist tools: Modo, XSI, Maya, 3D Studio Max, Zbrush, Photoshop, Illustrator, Flash, and After Effects,
Talent needed:
Level Designer:
(Student or Pro): Level designers bring all of the content and game play together. Their tool of choice is the Unreal Engine editor. They block out the level for flow, later adding decorative touches, including lighting and effects. Some level designers focus on the overall experience, while others focus on one area such as scripting or lighting.
Recommended Knowledge
Unreal Kismet, a world-class visual scripting language for games.
Unreal Matinee, a scene animation tool that brings your game to life, and allows you to create in-game cinematics.
Level Construction tools, including geometry editing features and BSP-based model creation.
An added plus would be an understandable knowledge about C++ or Unreal Script, but it isn't recommended.
Particle Effects Creation: Using as back ground atmosphere, obstacles, and barricades
Sound Design Set up: adding in custom Sound design if needed to.
Level One Summary:
Level One: Nigel's Corporation Building (The Awaking)
Game Level Setup
Nigel's Corporation Building is the first level of Revelations: The Chronicles of Jericho Fox, taking place in 1912 London. Jericho Fox (the player) has arrived to Nigel's office on the 20th floor to give and receive his payment for the urns of Ra he has stolen from the temple of Horus. After Jericho and Nigel has made an agreement for the jewel as Jericho's payment instead of money, Nigel accidently reads the seal incantation on the back of the urn of Hours and releases Seth from his eternal prison. Jericho must now escape the building before Seth 1st form consumes the entire building, the people inside, and him along with it.
Primary Player Focus
The primary focus of Nigel's Corporation Building is for the player to escape the building before Jericho falls into the collapsing floor, burned alive by fire, and without touching Seth 1st form. The player must run down six floors and go through different types of obstacles on each floor. At the same time the player must also watch out for Seth 1st form which if the player touches it he will die instantly. The player must use speed and wits to progress through each floor, and if the player gets caught by too many traps or touches the mist he/she will die and will have to start over at the last checkpoint.
Tasks for Level One: (The Level Designer focus will be completing the remaining kismet, particle effects, and Matinee creations we need for this level, to move to the next two level creations)
