All, I'm a programmer looking for artwork... here is the a frame from the asteroids-space combat demo game I've been working on. I'm not an artist, though, so am very interested in help from the pixeljoint community:
(1) there is room in graphics RAM for a bunch more background stuff... planets, galaxies, anything spacey. Maximum size is 64x64 pixels, but smaller is definitely better (I have room for 3 64x64 pixel images, or 12 32x32 images, etc). The hardware has one restriction: it only allows 4 unique colors in any 8x8 tile. There are more details here: http://excamera.com/sphinx/gameduino/artists.html - http://excamera.com/sphinx/gameduino/artists.html and an online tool to palettize images here: http://gameduino.com/live/ - http://gameduino.com/live/ (2) enemy spacecraft. These are sprites, can use a 256-color palette, and can be up to 32x32 pixels. A top-down or side-on look would be in keeping with the rest of the game. Any contributions gratefully accepted; the game is open-source (GPL licence) and you'll get an in-game credit on the welcome screen of your choosing. Thanks again! |
