Pixel Joint Forum: {Paid}- AGS Vga Backgrounds

Message

   Greetings all. I'm currently working on a personal project (literally for my own passion of a storyline I want to expand upon). So, there is no company, or previous work. 

However, I've recently come into some money and nows a good of a time as any. I am taking one of my absolute favorite Audio Dramas and having it acted out in AGS through pixelation. The over all run time of the Audio Drama is approximately 30 minutes, and through the duration I'd like a little player interaction in a few simple tasks, but the overall objective of the Game will be for the story itself. 

I'll be needing about 15 screen shots and a few brief small sprite animations. Over all screen size is 320x200, though game play window (requiring backgrounds) is only 320x144. These And characters are on average 18x46. Color count will be similar to that of some of the well known VGA games, like Quest for Glory 1 - VGA, and Legend of Kyrandia. 

Now, in terms of wages, I'm very uncertain. I don't know what a respectable hourly or piece work rate is. Its a piece I would like done relatively soon, but as there is no real deadline, a time line can be arranged. 

I pay via Paypal and have no qualms offering upfront deposits as I understand I'm going to be seen as a new user. To contact me, please either post on this thread, or message through the board, but the preferable way would be directly to my e-mail/MSN at Da_Duke2000@hotmail.com. I check my e-mail multiple times a day and will respond to all inquiries. 

Hope to hear back.

	To date, the project is going quite well. I had a little epiphany of an interaction I'd like the game to include. This is a quick little thing I made up to show the basic idea. I'd like an interactive mini game made up, where operation is similar to this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZvmVt3rgHNc&NR=1 The 'player' will press foot pedals (treadles, no shown in demo) raising certain hooks. The player throws a shuttle (a dowel wrapped with thread) through the gaps, and the wooden block pressed the new line downwards. Different combinations of raised threads is what will create the design on the fabric which will spool on the bottom. I need to work with an artist one on one to help design this. Parts needed are: 1) A series of 6-8 foot pedals with "up and down" positions" 2) The "shuttle" to be passed through the openings. (perhaps even a 3 frame hand to throw/catch it). 3) The wooden swing arm animation to press the threads downward. 4) The trickiest part is the 'raising' of certain combinations of threads. (Note: These combinations will be preset and will correspond to the foot pedals. But multiple pedals can/map be pressed simultaneously. This sounds a little complicated, but I'm confident it should be easy enough to design. Will need to be made in separate parts and then layered in our AGS. My Scripter will handle the animation. Serious inquiries, please contact me at the same info above. MSN and/or E-Mail both at Da_Duke2000@hotmail.com. Hope to hear from some of you. And yes, this is paid. Payment to be negotiated and sent via PayPal. Thank you.

	Just a simple bump. Still looking. Lots to do, and many other pieces to this project to be made outside of this one, backgrounds mainly. I hope to hear from a few of you, once again, this is paid.

	Yes of course. Easiest to simply link here: http://lucasarts.vintagegaming.org/index.php?do=ss&gameid=5&systemid=8 This is the style I need duplicated. Resolution is 320x144. Thank you. Edited by Da_Duke2000 - 12 June 2008 at 7:32am
