Free Time Begins

Well we finally have some free time to work on what we want to do. Apparently what we want to do is a lot of things at the same time. Things like: Space station, Warehouse, Lab, Caves, Police Station, Church, Sewer, Theme Park, Submarine, Castle, and various other projects.

After a lot of discussion we decided on a project. Project Free Time will be a multiplayer level for Unreal 3. It will take place on the top 5 floors of a skyscraper in New York. This is set in a modern time, however, the polar ice caps have melted and flooded the world. The water comes up to just over the first floor the level will begin at. The skyscraper is pretty damaged in areas and plant life is making it's way up the building.

We are still deciding on other things but this is the basics. We will be shooting for a map that holds around 16 players. We really want to be able to jump from floor to floor with ease. Our plan to do this is by using holes in the floor to get down, and balconies and fire escapes to get up the building. The roof will also be available for the players to fight on. We haven't decided on an art style yet but Joe is going to do some level concepting and get back to us.

If I missed something let me know.
