   Talented Game Designer looking for work
  I'm not looking for any new projects.[Edited by - SirFreak on February 4, 2008 12:21:32 PM]
  Ello, sire. I (as in my team and I) are working on a 2D Action RPG that takes place in a fantasy version of Medieval times. Before you dismiss my idea and damn the setting, note that I have a serious intention to get somewhere with this. The key features are below:--------------------------------------------------------------------------------More complex dialogue, and multiple other ways of interaction that explain the rest of the backstory. This is all dealt with using a new conversational engine. Also, NPCs finally get tired of you if you spend too long without answering.-A new interactive storytelling method, which gives you freedom, but that do what you want, that makes sense, only within the game's setting.-An unpredictable and epic magic system which makes extensive use of the game's environment.-A powerful and emotion invoking combat system which makes use of the three stages of drama-equilibrium, disequilibrium, and equilibrium, and also emphasizes scale and rhythm.-The illusion of limitless emergence within it. Less interactions are provided than some games aim to, but all interactions are fleshed out to the brink. Many different ways of handling interactions are used.-------------------------------------------------------------------------------This is all I can tell you without making you sign the NDA. If you want to join, also sign the team member contract.And yes, we have multiple designers already.-OmnibladeEdit: Ah yes, you will have to submit either a fantasy story or game mechanics document to be considered seriously. A game design document, or at least a sizeable amount of information from one, will be a reasonable substitute.We have never worked on a project before, but we have serious inspirations. I have inspiration in form of the innovative Peter Molyneux, Chris Crawford, and the list goes on.   ;  Hello Martin,Please check out my post here: http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=475952 we are always looking for skilled team mates!Mark   ;  Hi Martin.I'm curious as to whether you are still looking for a role as a game designer? The Viking Age has a relatively complete GDD so there shouldn't be an issue with workload. However it needs some revisions and perhaps alterations and I would appreciate some of your insight if you are interested.
