Since our last lead artist quit for a job in the industry we need someone to fill the huge gap he left in the project.
Team name:
vermin
Project name:
Fierce Talon Episode One: Dreams Of A Dead Man
Brief description:
Fierce Talon is is a 3D adventure/detective game with a strong film noir mood, set in an alternative near future. The game will be distributed and sold via online distribution channels. The game has been in production for around 2+ years with a fairly regular team. We are currently switching to the Ogre3D graphics engine, because at the moment our in-house engine would take too long to complete and we are pressed for time. The game itself has an unique mood and setting, made to immerse the player completely.
It will also feature full modability for the community aswell as a multiplayer mode.
