Brief description:
Apox is an new and establishing independent game development studio
located in Kristiansand, Norway. We are currently working on our first
company title which is our own IP and is a Multiplayer RPG game with a
dark fantasy setting inspired by and based on Norse Mythology and the
game combines aspects from several genres with our own innovative
gamestyle. We are a structured team with a solid plan for everything
from the game and the company to the marketing even without a
publisher, however we will go for a publisher after we have engaged our
marketing plan to ensure a high value publisher.
Target aim:
Retail.
Compensation:
Paid work. Payment depends on the position, but we believe it is good payment for the positions.
Technology:
We have been evaluating several middleware packages, but have
settled on Torque Game Engine Advanced. All fees for game engine and
additional software are covered by Apox Entertainment with some
exceptions. We have worked a lot already on the TGEA and have a solid
codestructure and a network base which our two current programmers have
worked on and have modified the engine and will continue to modify it
for our needs.
We are also creating our own technology that is very unique and
never seen before in a game which will bring the competitive gameplay
to a new level, however this remains confidential. This technology is
currently being prototyped internally.
