I'm working on a browser-based tactical warfare game called Veralka (www.veralka.com - site is currently closed to the public.) We're seeking some pixel/2D artists to make faces/characters, some tiles for the map, and possibly various other things including scenes and image maps.

The project is a tactical warfare game involving managing various cities, using them to spawn units, and using those units to capture further cities and defeat your opponents, based in the users browser. It is tick-based. This is all done on a massive 500x500 hand-made map. Units are customizable, level up, and can be afflicted or aided by status effects and items. Also features a questing system with dialog trees, and a crafting system for a hopefully player-driven economy.

We have been in development for about six months and are hoping to go into beta soon and launch a few months afterwards. The game is nearly complete code-wise and just needs a bit of content creation done and some extra art to spice up the site and things like that.

We don't have a budget so we cannot presently offer compensation, though in the future I hope to compensate anyone involved on the project. The game is going to be released free to play with optional donation features. Hopefully this can be a great resume building experience for someone since it will definitely go to launch, though we don't know how popular it will be.

We currently have a small six-man team (including myself) working on the project. I am project manager, second programmer, and lead game designer
