Hello Pixel Joint,

Normally I come to these forums to look for work but this time I'm requesting some help.

I've been working on a game for almost a year now called Kara, you can check out its DevLog here...

At the moment we're struggerling a bit with out character design because we want to make things perfect before we start creating all our animations.

What I'm looking for is someone to take our existing sprite and redesign it to look more interesting and iconic. I'm hoping to pick a couple of you guys to make maybe 4 or 5 different versions so we have a selection to choose from. all work will be paid for.

Afterwards we will pick our favourite artist and commision you to make some basic animations for our first Demo. With the plan being that we come back to you in the future and commission a full set of animations for the final game when the time comes.

Whilst we will be paying for these initial samples, i'm afraid budget will play a part in our decision making.

Here is a mock up of the game, the current character that needs a redesign is located at the top of the screen.


And here are some GIFs of the old character in action.

Feel free to email me your rates and portfolio links to matwek@hotmail.com
We won't ask you to do any samples until we have picked our artists and decided on a quote.

Thank you for your time.
