Hello all!
We’ve only made two games so far and we’re realizing that we’re severely lacking in the 2D art department. I’m a graphic designer who dabbles in art/illustration but I’m finding the level of skill required far exceeds mine.
Right now we’re working on v2.0 of our Trials of Madness game (dungeon crawler). Originally our first ever game jam we’ve spent a lot of time polishing mechanics, adding new gameplay and puzzles and new areas. We’re nearly done too, but art is holding up the process and we need help! We’re seeking to collaborate with someone as a park of our team for this project and potentially future projects. I should clarify that we’re not hiring an artist atm, just looking to find someone who is skilled with art who also wants to make games for fun and join us on jams.
These are the things we need help with:
- 3 enemies art w/ animations (walking and attacking only/goop, Eldritch Illithid cultist & final boss)
- 3 tilesets (underground, dungeon & temple/walls & floors)
- 5 character art (seen on the selection screen and also as their profile photo in the corner when they play that character. Knight, wizard, rogue, bard and cat 🐈⬛)
We were aiming for a simple, flat color style for the art. The animations I made are 3 frames max, so we’re not expecting anything crazy. Mostly just want to find someone who can help us complete our first ever game project so we can post v2!
The game itself is a dark fantasy with a smidge of humor, where adventurers find themselves transported to an Eldritch cults long abandoned dungeon and the only way to escape is by completing the trials of madness.
V1 is available below, but if you’re interested in seeing the current version (which is WAY better) feel free to message me.
