Hello,
I am planning a MMORPG game and am in need of a developer on a contracted basis. The exact work given to you, hasn't been finalized.
Luckily we have a Games Engine, so the only changes you'll have to make is AI scripting, combat and Game Master (Staff functions). While there could be a few more things you'd work on, you wouldn't be programming the games engine, since it is already bought.
The product is called: HeroEngine ([login to view URL]). A lot of pre-configured things are drop down boxes and parameters. I do not have an hourly rate in mind, I am hoping its fairly reasonable though.
This project isn't a serious thing, we are making parts of the game, step-by-step. We first plan to make a concept version, very simple. The amount of hours a month that can be given aren't confirmed either.
I am MMORPG server developer, I know AI very well, and I have worked in this filed for 5 years, I know the lua language very well, please let me do this.
I would love to work on this game for you. I have made games before in XNA, which is different but the concept is still there. I have also done AI before as well as item designs, map designs, monsters, etc. We can talk more on Skype :).
