Hello,

I'm a solo designer/developer working on my first iPad game. I've already released an app recently and I'm looking to try my hand at games.

I have a running prototype (WIP) of a sprite engine, controls, audio and gamestates working. The main idea of the game is about a newbie pirate looking for a treasure on an island. You'll run into the local fauna and other pirates on the island and in true zelda fashion you'll get items that let you access further places on the island.

I'm a relatively decent designer, but sprites is something I have no talent nor time for, so I seek help. At this point I have no certainty of the scope of the project or if it will be free or paid.

I do want to promise complete 50/50 ownership with whoever is interested, but I want to stress out that I want to keep this fun. I work full time so I have no pressure in doing this, and if anything I want to keep it entertaining and not stressful (I have enough of that in my life! haha).

Later on I'll be looking for someone to help with sound and music, but that's further down the road.

For kicks, here's a sample of the test sprite I put together to try out my engine.
