Hiring: Kingdoms iPhone
Overview
Well, it has been quite a long time since I have announced any plans for Graal Kingdoms and I am happy to announce today that we are working on a Kingdoms iPhone project. Looking at GK's current systems, I have decided to scrap them. As a result, I have completely rebuilt GK's system from the ground up. This includes the spell system, combat system, monsters, humans, interface and much more. We are no longer using any portion of the mudlib on this server. Not a single piece of script has been copied over from Graal Kingdoms at this point. Currently I have completed enough work on the server to create playable content, but we're not done yet. I am not going to go in depth describing the server plans, however, I will say that it is planned to be similar to most other MMORPG (but simpler), and using Graal Kingdoms' graphics. Most of the aesthetic effects on the server are using the latest technologies. What Positions Are Available (in order of importance, subject to change as project nears completion)
We will be collaborating and communicating via AIM, email and google docs. Requirements
Aside from working with the latest technologies in Graal, you may be compensated (depending on your work ethic) with access to Graalv6, gelats, promised staff position upon release, working with an organized goal-oriented team, resumé material, access to Kingdoms Debug and Kingdoms iPhone, and even more. Contact Please forum PM or email me ([email protected]) concerning your interest in the project. Please submit your portfolio and/or a brief overview of your experience including samples of your favorite and best work that you've done. Note: This thread is not available to discuss any of your grievances. This thread is only remaining open for questions relevant to this project. |
Will this new server be cross platform?

Thanks for the prompt response! How many LAT's are you looking to hire?

Sorry for all the questions but I'm interested in the project :) If we apply and assuming we get in will the tileset LATs use be the same as the current GK?

It was a legit question meanie:\:\
Better questions so this post isn't deleted: Will it use the same concepts/items as the real game, just shrunken with different controls? Or will it be a brand new idea? Will it be 3D terrain, with hills and stuff? Will the work be done using the current Graal tools? Ie. Editor? :confused::confused: |
Quote:
3D terrain is being used at this point, but could change. Current graal tools, yes. |
You know, I'm all for anything positive that's Kingdom's related. But I'm saddened that the PC version isn't getting attention. I hope, and i guess it's sort of a question, that any success Kingdoms iPhone gets would in turn benefit the PC version by way of development/advertisement.
Another question. Would this be available to play on the Motorola Milestone/Android? |
Quote:
And to answer your other question: Android is planned for Graal in the future, aiming for the end of the year (as quoted by Stefan). |
Can I see an example of some GFXes to see the point of perspective before I apply? Maybe like a tree, plant, and maybe a house or somethin. Thanks :p

Can we develop/play using a compor is an iphone required?

Sounds promising, I hope it's cross platform, otherwise it seems like the PC server is getting totally shafted.
|
Guys, please try to keep it to relevant questions only. Not comments.
|
Payment and compensation... Does that mean actual money for use in the real world?

I wouldn't be sure If I'd want to have Graal on my resumé.
Best of luck. Actual question, Why not simply combine the iphone servers together? You can put the worlds into a "Pick a Server!" like picking planets on zone? Bigger Count which means bandwagon opportunities. I might be answering my own question but would it have to do with server problems like too much to handle at once..? |

I'm completely interested in this project. I could be of some assistance with gains and levels. Some of my stuff could be found on the forums but I have no problem making something new and fresh. As these posts are supposed to be for questions I have a good one...
Will the staff have access to it via iPhone/iPod prior to release in the official app store? |

Questions.
A) Do I NEED an iphone for this job? and B) Do I get paid? Keep in mind I'm a full-time bartender but only work nights meaning I'm available from 8 am - 5 pm EST everyday. |
Read the full post your first question has been answered, and it doesn't look like you'll payed by monetary means
|
Why would I need a Google account to apply?
Sorry, but I don't see the point. I don't have a Google account and I would not give any information to that company by registering an account. If it was for sharing documents or whatever through GoogleDocs, this company should have enough possibilities to set up some document share. |
Quote:
If you don't want to "share" your Google information, it would make sense to make a "spam" account so that you can access documents, I would think. |

Also, to the applicants: If I haven't responded yet it's not because you're not accepted. It is because I've made very few decisions yet about who I am going to hire. |
What exactly does the storyline writer do? Do they write something like a novella? Do they write NPC dialogue? To what extent is the storyline based on preplanned aspects of actual development (levels, etc.)

Do you need gold to work on the server?

Quote:

Im trying to decide whether I should apply or not, I can LAT and all that but i don't really wanna disappoint anybody. Would you be willing to hire anyone as a trial LAT so you can decide if they are good enough? (by trial I don't mean doesn't have gold)
