Codename: "Mass Guardians", shoot 'em up in a high fantasy setting

Hey everyone!

My name is Alexey and I'm looking for a team to work on this hobby project.

At first, a bit info about myself:

• programmer
• 10+ years of web-development (and counting)
• 0.5 year learning game dev and especially Unreal Engine 4
• have not so much time for this project (roughly 2h/day)
• English is not my native language, so I'm sorry for mistakes...
• Related to the previous item: text communications preferred (probably, Discord – I have a channel)

About the project:

• Hobby project, mostly for self-learning
• Unreal Engine 4
• Shoot 'em up game, similar to Crimsonland (top-down view, fast-paced gameplay, tons of enemies from all directions, different weapons, power ups and so on)
• High fantasy theme with magic
• Multiple play styles: melee, ranged, mage
• RPG elements: leveling, learning skills
• Single-player
• [optional/to discuss] Party/group gameplay when the player should control multiple characters at once (damage dealer, tank, healer roles and so on)
• [optional] Cross-platform release: all PCs – Windows, macOS, Linux; mobile platforms – iOS, Android.

About who's needed:

• Everyone interested! (at the current stage mostly wanted: programmers, 3D modellers)
• Can work without guides from myself (I'm not a manager at all)
• Can discuss things but at the same time can agree with other's opinion

More details about the project:

I have a small video from the very first days where I've tried to make a group controls (this become an "optional" feature right now, because I'm not sure it's suitable for a fast-paced gameplay).

Also I have The Plan, in it's current state :-)

And, of course, the game's repository.

Welcome!

p.s. Also would be glad just to discuss, if you're interested
