A downloadable game

An RTS style game where characters are designed via an artificial-selection process.

"The Next Stage" uses a simple genetic algorithm to generate characters, by manipulating variables and morph targets, based on multiple parent-genes. Difficulty is adaptive based on battles won/lost. 

All content was created during the game jam timeframe, with the exception of:

- The leg animations use an (unfinished) procedural walk design system (made by myself) to allow various run speeds / character sizes.
- Bullet & blood particle FX which I created previously and adapted to this project.
- Level materials were created using Substance Painter.
- Hit/Shoot sounds modified from previous projects.
- Text font: Oxanium.

All other assets & code were created specifically for this project.

Hi.  I'm looking for someone to fulfill the roll of level designer and programmer on a Star Fox like game.
For compensation all I can offer is a revenue share, your cut would between 40-30%.

I cannot say much about the project because I want our programmer to be involved in the creative process very early on.  What I can say
is the game will be hand drawn animations.  We have an artist onboard and myself I have a basic understanding of UE4, will pay for the sound/music,
handle misc tasks like marketing, and provide team leadership.

Our goal is to be done with the game in 6 months.

Please let me know if you are interested or have any questions.
