SCREENSHOTS

What is it?

Nanoforge , codenamed Facade, is a first-person, sci-fi sandbox-adventure game, built in Unity (C#).

Target: Digital Distribution (Steam, Humble, etc.)

What have we accomplished?

• Greenlit, and approved for distribution on Steam
• Detailed GDD, narrative, and gameplay documents (27000+ words) to make development simple
• Established code base: All of the basic gameplay mechanics are in place, and usable! We've developed custom tools to make the level creation and modular level design a snap!
• Proper management: We've successfully used project management tools since the project's inception, that allow us to complete tasks, communicate, and see the big picture.
• Modular from the start: We've developed custom tools to facilitate rapid creation of levels that are rich in detail!
• Perseverance: The game began (as a concept) in 2011, and has survived transitions between game engines, project management tools, programming languages, business models, and countless Skype calls.
• Detailed analytics: Every play session is tracked extensively via custom metrics, allowing us to view heatmaps of player movement, monitor enjoyment, and optimize the game to eliminate confusion
• Music/SFX: Over a dozen tracks posted on our Soundcloud page, as well as several custom SFX, made exclusively for the game.
• You can play it. Right now. Fully-functioning first-person sandbox gameplay, in fact.

What do we offer?

• Powerful portfolio pieces and references Committed to the project? Your future employers will hear about it.
• Welcoming and determined team members: Ever lost track of time and stayed up late creating art? We're like that.
• Flexibility: We've worked with team members from China, Italy, the U.K., Germany, Canada, the U.S., Poland, Russia, and Libya, in countless time-zones. We value your time, and work to create a consensus for all meeting times, so everyone is equally grumpy.
• Consistency: We've easily passed our hundredth sprint review/planning Skype call.
• Simple, efficient tools: In-house tools empower you to produce art that looks fantastic, whether in-game or on news sites.
• Industry experience: Over half of our contributors have worked on major titles in the past, or have had professional development experience, including work on titles such as Deus Ex: Human Revolution,Thief, and Halo 2.
• Minimal revisions required: We use a multi-stage process to minimize revisions to work, making development far more efficient!
• Presence at prominent game conventions, including PAX South, PlayOnCon, EGX Rezzed, and PAX East.
• We are part of the 5%: Virtually all remote-work-based game projects fail within the first six months. We didn't.

What do we need?

• C# Programmers

  • C# experience required
  • Prior experience with Unity a plus
  • Communication skills
• Lighting Artists
• Level Designers
• Anyone who fits

Note: Other programmers, LEVEL DESIGNERS, and writers are also invited to apply!
