Hello artists,
Ennoble Studios is a perspective indie game making team dedicated to bringing you fun, high-octane gameplay games in image of old school games, but developed with latest technology. Ennoble Studios is a firm believer in PC platform, but also in values of gameplay and game design that brought us here as gamers. Ennoble is also a believer in real artistry of gaming as a medium. Through vision in quality of work instead of bare sufficiency, through depth, insight and worth of your time Ennoble will in the future bring you games to enjoy and remember.
http://www.ennoble-studios.comA few months ago I started creating a game in Unity engine, a vertical scrolling shoot-em-up (aka shmup) of euro style that we rarely see these days. Being a lone developer, I started a relatively small project that would be fun, manageable and completable. Some of the influences are: Aero Fighters, Giga Wing, Espgaluda, R-Type Delta, Raiden, more recent Jamestown and mostly DoDonPachi and Ikaruga. Target platforms would be Windows, Mac & Linux.
The goal is to create a game which will be really fun to play, challenging, but at the same time in a modern package that is sure to impress with art style. Games like this aren't seen often these days, and this game is going to be no-nonsense, no-gimmicks, full-blown visual & audio art coupled with fast-paced gameplay.

We are looking for a 3D artist to make the backgrounds.The base coding is mostly done. That means:
• Fast paced gameplay
• Artistic patterns with random seeds
• 5 levels
• 2 players coop
• Controls for 2 players on Keyboard or Gamepads
• Scoring system based on speed and efficiency
• Huge epic bosses
• Memorable tunes: techno score with guitar riffs
• Distinctive style

• Saving level progression, in single or multi-player
• In-game leatherboards: local and global
• On-line leaderboards
