Ambitious & cool RTS classic strategy game needs you! 17.000 wishlists and counting!

Do you like real time strategy games? Or are you looking for a project with a clear goal in mind? Then this might be for you :)

I'm looking for unity programmers for an RTS inspired by Red Alert, Tiberian Sun, Supreme Commander and other games from the golden age of RTS games.

This game will take place in the near future and will feature slightly scifi units but with a very military feel to them. We are currently working on a demo for publishers and we are at about 90% of the way there. We already have a great audio SFX guy and some good programmers.

What are we looking for?

- Programmers (at minimum 5 hours per week. Direct correlation between time spent & quality)   

- 3D artists (show portfolio) 

- 2D artists (concept art, GUI art) 

- Map creators (who can actually create the map in unity or are willing to learn) 

- General game developers (basically any role that knows a bit about development in unity but can spend a lot of time creating or improving levels, visuals, explosions, particle effects, animations or anything else that increases the projects quality even more

- People with an interest in marketing and are willing to post a bunch on social media consistently or reach out to streamers for us for example

What are you getting?

Once funding comes in (roughly 3 months after the demo is completed, but no guarantee of course) you will get the choice of either a percentage of the profit or being paid an hourly amount of money, or a combination of both. Whatever you prefer at that point.

This game is also guaranteed to finish and the odds of getting a decent publisher are also higher than average. This is based both on past experience and the current agency that already does this professionally.

Future prospects

If working together is pleasant and productive then I also intend to actually hire you for future projects should you be interested.

Interested in completing a decent quality game?

Send me a message with your portfolio / experience and why you want to join and let's talk! If you're applying as a programmer and don't have a portfolio just tell me a bit about what networking experience you have and if there are any projects you've completed so far ^^. You can also just send me your discord handle (although I'd recommend you to remove it after I've added you :P)

Hello TenseGames! 

I see your offert and I cant wait to join to this proyect, If you don't mind, I would like you to contact me so we can see how to plan the execution of the development.

Thanks in advance

Hi TenseGames, 

I might be interested in participating as level designer, depending on the commitment per week, as I have a daily full-time job and family. I cannot see your discord so you add me _scr_ and I can send you my portfolio. The game looks honestly really good, and rather finished, you were not wrong about that. Although I know very well how much the last 10-20% of a game can take... 

I might be able to help on other areas as well, like game design or QA. 

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello,

I am a skilled programmer with extensive game development experience. I’ve recently started working with Unity (about half a year ago) to expand my skill set and see it as an exciting direction for the future. I’m looking for an interesting project to contribute to. I’ve also played all the games you referenced, as well as Total Annihilation, which I enjoyed thoroughly.

I am currently working on a personal project, so I’m seeking a part-time role. I can dedicate at least 10 hours per week to your project.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hello, I am a graphics programmer, and I have about a year of daily experience in post processing and creating volumetric shaders not counting all the research on different post processing and graphics effects that I have done outside of that. I can see from the trailer that you game already has some good post but if you want anything more complex or want to upgrade your graphics then hit me up at aduck1753 on discord.

(willing to work for experience but a little money would be appreciated)

Wow! This is really cool! I literally was just browsing Itch for fun and came across this post. I had to make an account right away to let you know this is project looks super exciting. The amount of hours I put into Red Alert... I don't even wanna know!

I have over a decade experience in game business/marketing. I currently work full-time for a business in the games industry too. I have helped various (indie) developers with their launches on PC, mobile and console. If needed, more than happy to help in that area.
