We are looking for a Generalist 3D Modeler!
Concept of the game
Enlightened is an RPG-adventure video game optimized for language learning. The language learning method relies mainly on the dialogues, quest completion as well as the exploration of the game environment.
While possessing all of the elements of a standard video game (storyline, gameplay, quests, skill acquisition, etc), Enlightened allows players to learn a foreign language by exploring the world around them, interacting with the NPCs in their target language and completing quests. Resources in-game are also provided (grammar explanations, dictionary, personalized word lists, cultural information, mini-games, etc).
Synopsis
Play two characters: Ray and Stone. Ray, a resourceful but indifferent scientist, is absorbed through a portal and finds himself in Aurora, in the city of Luzeria. He starts his journey to find his way back home. In the meantime, Stone, a fearless and determined woman, returns to the past in order to prevent an impending disaster.
They realize however that many secrets ready to shake their beliefs are concealed under the surface. As they emerge, their trajectories begin to deviate…
