We need a small team to develope a full sport videogame for PC.
We need the availability from the end of this month.
The sport category is very simple how complexity (no soccer, no basket, no rugby, ...).
Our budget for the full game is (about) $8,000.
We are looking:
1 Experienced 3D Artist
1 Experienced Torque 3D Licensed Programmer

- design of 3 human characters (high quality/resolution).
- a simple face morph to customize 2 of the 3 characters. We need only few options for each face zone: hair, eyes, ...
- to add about 30-50 people for the crowd in the sport center (low quality/resolution). To speed the work you can use non original models ready to buy, example: http://www.turbosquid.com/FullPreview/Index.cfm/ID/275781.

- design of HUD, buttons, intro, ...
# PROGRAMMER

We don't own a Torque license, as said is the First videogame that we have to develope for PC.
For PC we have developed some demo (mostly FPS), but not with Torque.
As said our data will be given via email.
The people that receive our answer can confirm this.

Contract work is not the place for exercising an aura of mystery, less the mystery turn out to be,
"The Case Of the Missing Paycheck And Stolen IP" (A very aggravating plot, by the way).
How about you email me the 'data', then I could edit my posts to reflect a less suspicious attitude?

How do you expect to hook experienced freelancers, without them first being able to check into the "serious company" credentials? Contract work is not the place for exercising an aura of mystery, less the mystery turn out to be,
"The Case Of the Missing Paycheck And Stolen IP" (A very aggravating plot, by the way).
How about you email me the 'data', then I could edit my posts to reflect a less suspicious attitude?

I do not understand why you do not wish to share the information openly, because it makes this job seem much more promising and legitimate then the above Job Ad description.

Your credentials seem good. I do not understand why you do not wish to share the information openly, because it makes this job seem much more promising and legitimate then the above Job Ad description.

We wish to hide our data because we work mostly in outsourcing with other suppliers, but we sell and manage directly the services to our clients.
So our clients don't meet/know never the name of our suppliers.
And we don't wish that our clients know this our model business (otherwise could be more difficult to sell our services).
When we buy a service/software from a supplier, all the rights/copyright (when available) of use/own/develope have to go to us, as will be now for this game project.

Ah, fascinating concept. Sorta like a contract broker, or a subcontract broker. I actually can see the value of that type of service in the game development industry.

Also quite abnormal (among other parts) is:
Just an observation from a longtime freelancer who have learned how NOT to get burned by contract work.
