CMC for Open Clonk?


Many players keep asking: "Where is the version of Codename: Modern Combat for Open Clonk?"
Easy answer: There is none... yet.

There were first steps in the year 2016 with initial development and concepts but with no success - it proved really, really difficult to establish a first base of content as all gameplay mechanics from Clonk Rage had to be modified, scrapped or altered completely to even remain playable and - most importantly - fun.

So: We try again. Clonk is a great series and personally, we'd love to contribute to it's survival in the vast sea of video games today.
For that to happen, we'd like to scan the community for new members - mainly guys into the programming part of Open Clonk, and also, those who'd still be interested in playing CMC in Open Clonk.

Wait, what is CMC?


Codename: Modern Combat (in short: CMC) is a expansion pack for Clonk Rage, based on the popular Hazard expansion.
It features arena-style shooter gameplay with a heavy focus on teamwork and tactics.
CMC is one of the oldest Clonk Rage modifications that has been arround since 2010 and is still maintained to this day.

What do you have so far? What do you need?


Apart from lots of concepts, initial UI graphics and other graphics and sound material, a 3D graphics guy, some betatesters and a all purpose - but not programming - project manager? Not much, really.
As mentioned, we'd need to confirm who'd be interested in a Open Clonk project like this and if we'd find programmers to create a first little playable pack which mainly focuses in proving one thing:
The gameplay of CMC working in Open Clonk and - again, most importantly - beeing fun.

After that had been achieved, everything else whould follow.
Of course, OC CMC already has to be different because of the wide array of differences between Open Clonk and Clonk Rage, but the important part isn't to port all features without any changes or to make them simply fit in Open Clonk, but to create gameplay that features similiar varity and depth to it like the version of Clonk Rage offers.

In short: You like...

* Arena-style gameplay for Open Clonk?
* Modern shooters with a clonk-ish twist to it?
* Easy to understand, but hard to master gameplay mechanics?
* Gameplay building arround teamwork and depth in tactics?

Look no further and please feel free to contact us, CMC is probably right up your alley!
