Zion
Brief description:
Zion is a strategy/rpg Cyberpunk game. The game code has come very far, and we are currently producing some great music, models, and concept art. However,with only a handful of dedicated artists/modelers, etc, we are always on the lookout for like-minded people to join our team. See our website for more details.
Target aim:
We haven’t made a final decision on how we’ll market ‘Zion’. The concensus seems to be for releasing a free trial version, then selling and marketing the game proper ourselves.
This is essentially a non-pay entry level project, though of course monetary compensation will be distributed in the event we market and sell the game succesfully. It is being produced as a ‘stepping stone’ into the industry for (most) of our team members, and if our team works well together- a stepping stone to our next project. We are all learning a lot about the game development process quite fast, and the game is showing a lot of promise thus far.
Compensation:
We are offering a percentage of potential revenue, in the event that we market the game commercially.
Technology:
Our target system is the PC.
"We’re using Ogre3D which is capable of rendering to OpenGL and DIrectX. We’re using C++ right now and at this point virtually all of the code I have written is completely portable."

Previous Work by Team:
This is the Moesaverage team’s first serious game project.
Additional Info:
The game is just getting off it’s feet in terms of game assets, concepts art/models etc. (We have around fifty unique concept art pieces and a dozen or so models) The game engine coding itself is however, well underway. We also have some wonderfully atmospheric score for the first few chapters of ZION, composed by Curtis, one of our more experienced team members. We look forward to hearing from you!
