Brief description:
This is a modification of the Torque MMO Kit. The game’s main aim is to become a roleplaying in-character only game playing down on the usual ooc and power gaming found in many mmorpgs these days.
The existing engine itself will be modified to focus on socialisers and explorers and give heavy focus to the act of roleplaying.
The project will be free and use a micro-transaction donation model for non-game affecting items used for roleplay.
Target aim:
The main aim is to provide a 3d in-character roleplaying only online game. It will be freeware and available initially as a download and making use of the proven 3dJam software to integrate the software into facebook.
Compensation:
This project is not designed to make any money other than pay for hosting costs (0.30c per user running costs) that will be covered by a $1 optional donation for non-game affecting roleplay items (per month). Anyone applying should be aware of this and ideally it should fit those looking to add some additional work to their portfolio. However, we are more than willing to share our services with you and offer whatever skills we may have that you may not for your own personal projects. You are also free to use your art anywhere else you see fit.
Technology:
Content modifications of the Torque MMO Kit C++/Python/Sql-lite
Wikia used for lore/storyline and game design.
Also some use of standard torque tools such as constructor for structures and the in game editor for terrain and milkshape3d for characters and objects.
