Hi,
We are looking for a pixelartist who wants to join us in our mobile game project.
You should have atleast some experience with pixel graphic’s and general insight of the aspect of game developing
—Who are we?—
At this moment our team exists of 3 students between 22 and 24 years old.
1 designer and 2 programmers.
We live in the Netherlands, but we can communicate in English easily.
Each of us spend about 10 to 25 hours a week on our game, and because of this there is a lot of progress being made.
Most of our communication goes through Skype or Whatsapp
—The game—
Our mobile app is made with the Corona SDK and will be available for at least iOS and Android devices, later on (when Corona adds support for Windows Phone) it automatically extends to Windows Phone
Our game is a RPG, strongly inspired by Pokemon. It uses the same game techniques (For example we use the traditional 4-way movement, grid bases map etc.), also its design is the same 16 bit style. But we don’t want to make a pokemon clone, we want to differentiate us by developing innovating new gameplay elements and improve the existing gameplay elements.
Above you see a screenshot of the style of our game, don’t mind the interface yet but look at the grass and other level design to get an idea. (Some graphics are borrowed like the house and the player, but gives a general idea of the style)
The worldmaps are being made in the Tile Editor: Tiled. In this program we also add objects to place dynamic objects like NPC’s, Teleports, or puzzle objects.
We are working on this game for some time now and a lot of it is already documented and a lot is already programmed. (email us for a demo if you have serious interest)
—What will you be doing?—
In general, you will be helping us design this game. You will be making characters and monsters but will also work on the terrain art or interface.
Communication is very important in our team as well as working on this project with passion to make this a success. You will be involved with all aspects in this project. You can come with your own ideas or discuss ours. We want to make this game a product of all of us.
The game will eventually be sold in the appstores. We are thinking about a price between $1 or $2 but it will be discussed later on.
We expect you to commit yourself to this project and our partnership.
As you will be a full project member you get the same amount of the profits, the profits will be split evenly over all of us.
—Interested?—
Are you our 4th project member? Or do you have any questions? Mail me at pouwelsjochem@gmail.com and maybe you could already show us some work you made.
Kind regards,
Jochem Pouwels
