Brief description:
[color="#1c2837"]Aethro Prelude has been in development for a few years now working on the story line and job systems. With those being hashed out and completed, we are now looking into getting it put all together. We are not doing a quest driven game. Our story is progressed by using story telling Game Masters, and primary NPC's to create an interactive world, with game changing events that, based off what players do, can change the next expansion and the world.
Target aim:
[color="#1C2837"]The game is a Freemium meaning, Free to Play with Subscription and micro-transaction options.
[color="#1C2837"]Compensation:
[color="#1C2837"]Revenue share is available after launch.
[color="#1C2837"]Technology:
[color="#1c2837"]Most of the core work is done using Hero Engine, which allows for developing the world in a live environment with other developers. All scripting is done using primarily Hero Scripting
[color="#1c2837"]Language, and our art exporters are designed for Maya and 3DS Max (including 2012). Launch will be focused on a PC version, with the possibility of expanding to other consoles, mediums at a later date.Talent needed:
