   Grand Heist - Recruiting Artists!
Team name:Grand GamesProject name: Grand HeistBrief description:This game has been under development since March of 2009. We have around 15 developers and are a very friendly, mature, and talented team. Brief Game Synopsis:Every human bears the consequences of his own actions... alone. But for an entire race to face the ramifications of their own doing is destruction. Eventually, humanity have reaped what they saw. GOD, Nature, Gaia, whatever you believe in apparently have finally put an end to mankind's toil on the planet. As a race we always thought, the universe is ours. That we could control and manipulate anything, but in a future with little hope of survival, we were proven wrong. In the past 11 years you have seen the result of humanity's ignorance. A series of cataclysmic natural events have taken toll to reshape Earth, pointing to mankind that they are no more than a speck in a cloud of dust. Volcanic eruptions, cyclones, hurricanes and earth quakes, wrath of nature. No one knows how, why or where it began. The results, however, were the vanishing of two contents entirely - Asia and South America; The rest of the continents were damaged severely, Africa lost its northern half, Australia while claimed as the largest island over Earth became nothing more than two loosely connected islands, each the size of Greenland. Water -sea water- around the globe vanished. Huge craters exist now to replace the blue oceans that once existed. Survivors around the globe gathered around “nodes”, however, with the constant change of the world and the gravity of the present situation not many survived. Few now are able to live in this world. You arive in Africa, an infamous node for its riches. Meeting with your friend, you trek through the wilds searching for your desire in life, your purpose, your goals! But would fate leave you alone? Would destiny unravel its mysteries to you and unlock your future? Would you redeem yourself?

Custom gameplay elements such as the camera and part of the HUD have been programmed in, but still require additional work by another programmer4.)
