First off konnichiwa all 
My name is LEOdrake and I'm currently looking for some talented individual to help me develop my game Wadjet. Before we get too deep into the details let me say a few things: 1] I know every second person comes along saying "Ah dude I've got this great idea for a game ,lets make it and get rich bro" I'm not like this . I will finish this game ,its not going to get put on a backburner and be forgotten 2]I don't have any previous games out.I've been trying for ages in various forms to try recruit an artist but to no avail,which has impeded my progress at the moment because I'm in that critical stage when I can't go any further without having the correct sprites to tweak my system and add new elements. I've fallen into this catch 22 where I can't get an artist because I don't have a previous game out but I can't make my game because I don't have an artist. 3]Nope thats pretty much it ,sorry for all the tl;dr so far guys. 
Game Info 
This is what I have so far ,programmed with C++ using my custom state-driven platform engine.(C++ you %#%@!)Its got "3D" sounds based on the relative position off the player to the sound source,multiple codecs,Animation controls,working on precise shadow generation,camera controls,level editing,scripting...blah blah blah more programmer nonsense. 
Anyway as you can probably see I'm plagiarizing something awful.(Ganondorf anyone?) 
The game is called Wadjet.Its heavily based on Egyptian and Alchemic lore.  The player controls a adventurer character who is imbued with the power to harness Alchemic energy.I'm not gonna bore you with any additional details unless asked.
Prerequisites or how I learned to love my spriter 
I need you to be able to draw  with an emphasis on Egyptian style graphics .Your work will include creating tilesets ,backgrounds , object sprites and various animations.You should have experience in these areas and be available to talk to me often through at least two media: facebook,msn,skype,mxit,email ,something.
I'll will ask you for help with the art direction as time goes by I hope you can help with this too. Company Info I've created a studio( basically its just me at the moment) and we have a website here http://dyingsuns.ucoz.com - My...Our website (hah see what I did there?!) The studio is called Dying Suns Studios and the name is based on what I intend to be my magnum opus flagship game we're going to make in the future. Payment Ok the moment we've all be waiting for. I'm making this game for the future html 5 browsers and I'm going to embed it in our website. I wanted an internet game as I know that people don't particularly like paying for games especially indie games. Long story short I intend to analyze the the number of users coming to the site to play the game and send that data to advertising companies who I'll charge to advertise on the site. If you join me as the artist I'll give you at 50% of any income we make.Unfortunately I can't offer you any money during development,and I can't give you any salary projections until I do the analysis,so technically this is unpaid work Email Address mailto:leonardoglen1235@yahoo.com - leonardoglen1235@yahoo.com If I get any ads about penis enlargement someones gonna pay Company website As I said before http://dyingsuns.ucoz.com - http://dyingsuns.ucoz.com |
