<img src="http://i.imgur.com/5dm0bug.png"></img> <strong>About</strong> Unvanquished is a free, open-source FPS game with RTS elements, facing off technologically advanced humans against monstrous aliens. Players can choose either team, and must maintain a base while attempting to destroy enemy base structures. Humans rely on a broad variety of weapons and futuristic equipment, while aliens utilize claws, poisonous bites, and more. <img src="http://i.imgur.com/qsLuQJd.png"></img> The game itself is under highly active development, with monthly alpha releases made on the first Sunday of each month, bringing new artwork, gameplay, and engine features to the community. Pre-alpha began September 2011, and our first alpha release was March 2012. We have made more than forty alpha releases since then, and we expect to reach beta sometime next year. Here are a few articles to give a sense of what we've been up to as a project:<br /><ul><li><a href="https://www.unvanquished.net/?p=521">2014: year in review</a></li><li><a href="https://www.unvanquished.net/?p=611">Special effects</a></li><li><a href="https://www.unvanquished.net/?p=591">Maps of Unvanquished</a></li><li><a href="https://www.unvanquished.net/?p=562">Summary of gameplay changes</a><br /></li></ul> Our project receives regular coverage on major sites like Phoronix, where we have been praised for the quality of our artwork for an open source project. The team behind Unvanquished is an international one, and developers range from experienced hobbyists to professionals contributing their free time, all of whom are centrally coordinated on our IRC channel and forums. <strong>Position</strong> We presently have concept art for multiple weapons that need to be modeled. It would be desirable if you could provide the assets for a firing effect as well, but this is not a requirement. We may also be able to offer hard surface props if you are interested in doing a human base structure or map objects. <img src="http://i.imgur.com/aOfiGyJ.png"></img> Our engine supports diffuse, specular, and normal maps, with emissive (glow) and gloss (roughness) maps being optional. The renderer offers a variety of effects, including bloom, rim lighting, SSAO, heat haze, soft particles, and more. Polycount limits (in triangles) are negotiable per-model, and can be discussed. To get a taste of our art style, look at the screenshots above, as well as the ones on our site. A few examples of our weapon concept art can be found below. <img src="http://i.imgur.com/OwOokS1.jpg"></img> <img src="http://i.imgur.com/BpyIQjj.jpg"></img> <img src="http://i.imgur.com/sfRFdlN.jpg"></img>
