Multiverse project looking for a few people

[Linbog]

I'm working on Islands of War, one of the few Multiverse highlighted "Worlds in Progress" projects for multiverse and we are looking for more people for our team. Primarily we are looking for another programmer to do basic game systems(combat and quest primarily) and user interface but we are always looking for another modeler or texture artist.

This is a volunteer/hobby position so don't expect anything regarding compensation anytime soon. However we are looking for consistent people who aren't going to walk away in a month.

If you're interested send me a PM.

Correction: Looking for an animator more than another modeler.

Mostly Python and some Java. The UI is XML.

I met Andrew and the guys at Islands of War at the last GDC and shared a booth with them. Great folks. This project has been in development and stable for a very long time and Andrew is one of the most knowledgable people about Multiverse bar none. The devs even have him test stuff and what not.

So if you are looking for a good project I agree that this is a good one.
