I am currently looking to build a small indie team. to help start a project I been wanting to start for a long time now using unity3d, if anyone would like to talk more just post and ill sort a discord link for you, this will be a long project and not easy so please make sure you are willing to put in the time before contacting me, thank you and this will be a fresh project there are no pre made files to share.
I will be doing this project in stages to cut down on the work load starting with general game UI and account sections. all team members will need to use discord so that we can talk to each other and see what we have done and keep progress on deadlines and github will be setup to store files .
below is my basic idea it may change or most of it may not happen but thats how I right now invision the game. for ideas on what am looking for check out Arma3 S.O.G. Prairie Fire on youtube that as basic game ideas but i want a more standalone game with better interface and graphics but the game play is some what how i would like this game to be with co-op players working as team to secure locations so on.
this is a massive project, I will not lie to you, but if done right this will be best vietnam game on market and you will be a part of it :D
