Website:5ringsonline.comTeam (Currently):Me (Joe): Hello! I’m the lead programmer for the project. I'm 24 w/ a bachelors in computer science. I'm working on this project full-time. I would love to hear from you!
Talent Needed:It has become exceedingly clear to me that the only thing standing in the way of 5 Rings Online becoming a reality is content. Those who contribute will have proportional control over the direction of the project. I would prefer not to lead, but will do so if I have to.
The project requires:
- 3D Modeler(s) (1-4): For environments and creatures.. (we only need 6ish environments and 10ish polished creatures for the video) not an impossible task.
- Concept artist(s) (0-1): For title, gui, logo and concept/inspiration images.
- Composer(s) (0-2): For audio..

Previous Work:I've been the sole programmer for:
A HTML5 online trading card game- Viv A previous failed attempt
And here's my
Resume.
Target Aim:A Kickstarter, four months from now (42,000$ish initial goal) / Orders/Pre-orders from website
Compensation Plan:The key to success via kickstarter as far as I can tell is a compelling video and an adequately sized audience - this will be the focus of the four months leading up to the launch.
Alternatively pre-orders/orders will in theory provide comfortable living throughout development and beyond.
For your valuable time and effort you will receive a percentage of the kickstarter/pre-order profits. Up to 50%. I would be more than happy to discuss this with you.
Technology:The game is intended for Windows only (to begin with)
THE GAME’S ENGINE IS FROM SCRATCH.
For content creation you can use whatever programs you like. I will write import/export scripts for your favorite software.
