Looking for a 2D or a 3D Artist!!

If you love small games, and city builders, then I think we should try to collaborate! Would be a lot of fun :) 

I've been making games as a hobby for 8 years, and I've been working as a programmer for 10 years.

I am looking for an artist and a musician/sound-designer. No technical skills required! I'm up for using Unity, but lately I have also been making games using ThreeJS. So if we did that - then the art pipeline would be as simple as dropping assets in a folder and seeing it show up in the game. However, if you also know programming, then that's just great - we could do some really cool stuff :)

My hope is that we'll design the game together and that we all bring something to the table, I love collaborating on projects, so I am hoping we'll make something small and really great!

My focus for the last 2 years have been practicing making games in the city-building/simulation genre. I'm trying to get better at designing small games that can be finished in 1-6 months. I will add a list of games I have made in this genre in the bottom of this post, and link to some inspiration I have as well.

I have experience collaborating with other artists and programmers on game projects before:

After the fire:
https://augustalex.itch.io/after-the-fire
A small little 3d puzzle/adventure, with physics based gameplay. Made using Unity.

I collaborated with a Sound designer/Programmer and a 3D Artist.

Pocket Island:
https://augustalex.itch.io/pocket-island
A small city builder, where you only shape the environment, and people move in. Made for both VR and desktop, using Unity.

I collaborated with a 3D artist.



Stenmonster:
https://augustalex.itch.io/stenmonster
A short 2D action adventure with some interesting mechanics and pretty pixel art style. Was actually made it to work with online multiplayer, so you could play together p2p! But that is stripped from the Itch version. Made from scratch using javascript and HTML canvas in a weekend.

I collaborated with 1 more programmer, 2 musicians/sound designers and one 2D artist.




Some games I have made myself in the city-builder/simulation genre:

Rocks in space:
https://augustalex.itch.io/rocks-in-space-2023
Gather resources and build a city in an asteroid field, set up production pipelines and set up trade routes between asteroids and become an established colony.



Holographic City Manager:
https://augustalex.itch.io/holocity
"Manage a virtual city to increase virtual profits and make real cash"




Red Pixel:

Hi 

I'm a composer looking for a group to join for this collab event. If you need some music for your game I'd be happy to do it!

I've mostly done indie films and shorts, and just finished my first commission for a game.

If you want to work together just let me know? 馃榿

Hello! Also a composer! But i'm a bit newer (only about 2 years)... im looking to join a group that already has a main composer. If you'd like a lot of extra music in your project I can take care of the smaller/ more miscellaneous tracks!

@Bamfro For sure! Do you have any soundcloud, or what kind of music do you enjoy making? 

@sicky, sounds good :)

Also still looking for an artist or two that would like to join, perhaps interested in a city building simulation kind of thing  馃ス

awesome! do you have a discord i can add?

Submitted

Sure! @aggedev

Heya! I'm an artist and I adore city builders! artwaaron.com is my website. I've sorta done a gamejam with a buddy of mine a long time ago so I'm fairly familiar? I like your work and I'm interested to collaborate!

Do you have a Discord user? And are you perhaps in the Indie game clinic discord server?

I do have a discord!

Wow, you're illustrations are amazing!

Yes, would love to collaborate!

@lilbigdipper I looked at your art, and started a little mood board with some inspiration, possible secondary themes to the main "you are not the main character". I realised we might have a big time zone difference - but that shouldn't be too big of a problem for a 1 month long jam :) 

Add your own thoughts, ideas and generally go nuts:

Then if you are onboard - it would be great if we all could find a time to kick things off over a call!

yea! maybe add me on discord and we can figure out a time to do a lil brain session?

Sounds good! Sent you a friend request, and created a lil' server.

Breaking news! Half the mood board has become classified.

@Bamfro feel free to come join us anytime! We just need your Discord name :)

Hey :), I'm a little late. But are you still looking for a 2D artist? 

You can see some of my art and games I worked on, on my itch page: https://sinascribblecraft.itch.io

If you send me a message on discord (name: sinascribblecraft), I can send you more examples. I actually started working on a small cozy town builder :) (veeery early state) .
