<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Are you passionate about creating immersive and thought-provoking games? We’re building </span><strong>ZeroTrace</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;">, a cyber-hacking simulation game with a focus on depth, atmosphere, and strategic gameplay—and we need talented individuals to join the team.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">About the Project: </span><strong>ZeroTrace</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is set in a world where information is power, and hackers are the unseen forces shaping society. Players will navigate the underbelly of a dark, oppressive city, breaking into corporate networks, exposing secrets, and fighting to remain anonymous.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Inspired by the strategic depth of games like </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Bitburner</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;"> and the tension-filled mechanics of </span><em><span style="font-weight: 400;">Welcome to the Game</span></em><span style="font-weight: 400;">, </span><strong>ZeroTrace</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> challenges players to outthink their adversaries while exploring a city that is both gloomy and beautiful—filled with mystery, threat, and the ever-present watch of authority.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">What We've Built So Far:</span></p> <ul> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Grid-based Desktop Simulation: Players interact with a fully functional desktop, managing files, folders, and tools in real-time as they explore and hack systems. Files can be renamed, moved, or dragged into directories, with dynamic file management to keep the desktop clean and functional.</span></li> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Drag-and-Drop Mechanics: Intuitive dragging of files and directories, with logic to prevent conflicts and ensure smooth interaction with the game’s file system.</span></li> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Immersive Hacking Mechanics: We’re building a rich, strategic hacking system where players must infiltrate networks, bypass firewalls, decrypt data, and avoid being traced. The gameplay focuses on tension, problem-solving, and critical thinking.</span></li> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">A Beautiful, Gloomy World: Unlike the neon-lit cyberpunk cities you might expect, </span><strong>ZeroTrace</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> takes place in a more grounded, dark, and oppressive world. The city is shrouded in perpetual gloom, but its intricate design and atmosphere create a strangely beautiful, haunting experience.</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Where We Need Help:</span></p> <ul> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Gameplay Programmers: We’re looking for developers who can help build out our hacking systems, from network infiltration to interactive in-game tools. If you have experience in Unity and C#, we’d love to collaborate.</span></li> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">UI/UX Designers: Design immersive interfaces for the in-game terminals, hacking dashboards, and file management systems. We want to make every interaction feel authentic and tense.</span></li> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;"><strong>[No longer Needed]</strong> <del>3D Modelers/Environment Artists: Help us craft a city that is oppressive yet captivating. We need talented artists to bring this gritty world to life through atmospheric environments and detailed props that capture the essence of our setting.</del></span></li> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Writers and Narrative Designers: The story of </span><strong>ZeroTrace</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> revolves around more than just hacking—it’s about uncovering the truth in a society on the brink of collapse. We’re looking for writers to create missions, dialogue, and lore that drive the game’s deep narrative.</span></li> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Cybersecurity/Hacking Experts: We are also looking for individuals with experience or knowledge in cyber security, ethical hacking, or network infiltration to help design authentic and challenging hacking mechanics that feel grounded and realistic within the game.</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Why Join Us:</span></p> <ul> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Collaborative and Creative Freedom: You’ll have the chance to bring your creative ideas to life. We value collaboration and new perspectives, and your contributions will directly shape the game.</span></li> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Explore a Unique Setting: This isn’t your typical neon-lit cyberpunk world. The city of </span><strong>ZeroTrace</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;"> is a place of shadows, intrigue, and hidden beauty—a setting that offers endless possibilities for creative exploration.</span></li> <li aria-level="1"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Learn and Grow: Whether you’re an industry professional or an aspiring developer, there’s room to expand your skills while working with a passionate team on a project that’s as rewarding as it is challenging.</span></li> </ul> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">How to Get Involved: We’re looking for passionate developers, designers, and artists who want to work together on something special. If you’re interested in contributing to </span><strong>ZeroTrace</strong><span style="font-weight: 400;">, send us your portfolio, GitHub, or just a message explaining why you’d like to be involved.</span></p> <p><span style="font-weight: 400;">Together, we can bring this dark, beautiful world to life.</span></p>

<p>Hello Web Developers!</p> <p><img src="https://media.moddb.com/images/members/4/3766/3765305/profile/Konsinjager.png" alt="Konsinjager" width="1920" height="1304" /></p> <p>We are almost six years into development creating something even better in the FPS/RTS/Moba genre using the Unreal Engine.</p> <p>We are currently seeking a web developer who can assist with finishing our Web Panel. We currently have it wired into our game, but we need someone to finish setting up parameters for player search, player stats, teams system ( create a team, search for a team ), and general permissions. The layouts are completed. Minimal design work required.</p> <p>We would love it if you also had at least one of these skills.</p> <p>*UE4 Blueprint experience (to connect via Rest API to specific functions of game).<br />*Photoshop<br />*PHP/CSS/HTML/MySql/ JavaScript.</p> <p>If your PHP tech stack knowledge is proficient and/or think you can still contribute in some form or another, I'd still love to meet with you!</p> <p>We are currently a team of fifteen professionals all working under the same arrangement ranging from programmers, to artists, to professional mappers (with 3D FPS maps in successful indie titles), to business professionals; We know that in order to be successful, we have to work hard, be dedicated, and have excellent communication skills. We're all gamers. Like yourself.. And we're going against the big guys now. So we need more talent to assist us. The game design documents are in a living state (changing, updating) and you're free to contribute ideas to us. We want you as part of our team!</p> <p>How we operate is simple. All we need is a copy of your portfolio. We'll ask you to complete a task. You either choose to accept it, and if you do so - you let us know how long it'll take you based on your real life ventures, and when we can expect it back. (This keeps the train moving) We track the amount of work and time people are putting in over the course of the project and once the game is released, we'll be awarding those contributors based on the amount of work they've successfully submitted.</p> <p>The new game we're creating is a unique style of gameplay. It's a FPS / RTS / Moba. We're not creating an "Evolve" or "Call of Duty". We're creating something totally new. Specializing in FPS/RTS/Moba/CTF/Tower Defence Hybrid with advanced movement mechanics, better competitive matchmaking, a real solid game design, and extremely addictive gameplay. The best part about all of this is we're currently doing it UNPAID in our spare time! ( Except for some of us who love to work insane hours to create something awesome in the end. )</p> <p>If you're not a web developer but would still like to contribute small pieces to the project, such as props, audio, concept art designs, etc. We'll take a look at what you have to offer.</p> <p>Thank you for taking the time to read this post. I wanted to try and answer as many questions as I could without a wall of spam, so I hope this is conclusive enough.</p> <p>If you're interested, or have more questions - please send me an EMAIL [rusty at dmdgames.com] with your portfolio/resume, and please include availability over the course of the next few years (we're realistic), and tell us all about yourself and where you'd like to be in five years.</p> <p>Thank you!</p> <p>~Rusty</p> <p>***Extra Information:</p> <p>Here is our new Patreon link in which you can get additional information.</p> <p><a href="https://www.patreon.com/DiamondGames">Patreon.com</a></p>

<p>Greetings,</p> <p>I am tackling a project I've had in concept for a while, and require the aid of a programmer to get things going. I'm not really set on Unity or Unreal, so dealer's choice. I've got visuals covered, animations in progress, models done and ready, I can make anything we'll need for the environment, so as said all I need is a programmer and we're full steam ahead.</p> <p>The project itself is relatively small, with a lot of room to grow. It's a beta test to introduce the concept and give me a starting platform to start building the full finished product. The concept is simple, but highly effective: Navigating a snowed-over wasteland in pitch black darkness, relying on sound and VERY limited visuals to evade mysterious creatures that have adapted to hunt in the dark and bitterly cold world. And that's just the synopsis, I've got a dense Doc to get you set up in the world I've crafted.</p> <p>A combination of interesting mechanics revolving on sound, an atmosphere full of dread and tension, and a rich story told through the limited visuals of the environment should make for a stand-out, or at least decently memorable experience. If any of that sounds at interesting, or if you've just got nothing better to do, reach out at my email or on Discord!</p>

<p>In Legends of Learning, we’re transforming education through games. We currently teach math and science to nearly 10 million students across over +30,000 schools, and growing fast!</p> <p>We’re looking to partner with passionate game developers to create FUN and educational games. Our platform offers a revenue-share model where you can earn money by building games that teach specific academic topics. Most games on our platform are short, about 10-15 minutes long, and you have complete creative freedom to decide how to teach those topics in your games.</p> <p>The longer your game stays on our platform, the more you can earn. Last year, we distributed over $1 million to game developers. Many of them have multiple games on the platform, which significantly increases their total earnings.</p> <p>One of the best parts? You retain the rights to your game IP and can even reuse assets from previous projects, as long as they fit within an educational context.</p> <p>Whether you're an indie developer or part of a big studio, we want to work with you. Our model rewards all developers, with great payouts for top performers.</p>

<h3>[Revenue Share] 3D Animator Wanted</h3> <p>We are a Polish-based remote studio working on a medieval multiplayer title, FIEFDOM – more details here: https://playfiefdom.com/</p> <p>Currently, we are missing an animator of any skill level to bring our pipeline and our mocap to the best it can realistically be.</p> <p>We welcome all levels of experience and professional qualifications – what we care for is the end result and how you fit into the team, not where you come from or the titles you’ve accumulated.</p> <p>We are currently preparing for a Kickstarter and improving our demo for better pitching to publishers and investors.

Beautiful pre rendered backgrounds to take a knee with while relaxing to the masterfully composed soundtrack after clutching that last scrappy heart pounding battle.</p> <p>Our programmer finished laying significant ground work, but needs to step back a little and limit his time to the project and suggested picking someone up to help bring it all together. They would still be involved and part of the discord so you would not be thrown into the dark.</p> <p>We're looking for someone who is familiar with NavGrid (to implement movement of battlers during combat), and experience implementing Enemy AI.</p> <p>We're using Unity(C#) as the engine with DevOps for version control. We have one extra seat to add to the project.</p> <p>We're also looking to add one more environment Artist to collaborate with our current artist on bringing the pre-rendered scenes to life.</p> <p>We have a discord for the team that requires an NDA signed for access. The Discord also includes 100+pages of design documents as well as a programming focused document that details the mechanics and interactions between the player and the game world.</p> <p>It's unpaid until picked up by a publisher and a budget is received, I want to make sure that's clear. Once picked up by a publisher/successful crowdfunding, jobs will be offered to everyone involved with this project.</p> <p>thirtyfourrockets@gmail.com</p> <p>Let's Mosey</p>
