I'm toying with a few ideas and I want to start prototyping them.
I'm looking for two things a character and a tileset to test things with.
so I am looking for an artist to create a base sprite and some animations (depending on price it might be a few different base models as I have some ideas)
I have found a few references I can provide, but the artist can have free reign stylistically if I like the looks since I haven't laid that groundwork yet.
The only requirements which stem from the gameplay are that the perspective is 3/4 top down, and the character needs 8 directional movement. Oh and my preference is to hardcap it at 64x64 my sweet spot when I make stuff Is usually like 48x48
I don't have all features figured out yet so the animations I need are as follows (to give me some cover-all)
-idle
-walk
-run (this will probably be the main movement in the game)
-swim
-pick up object from the ground (probably will double as a crop planting/harvesting animation)
-swing over shoulder (mining is what I have in mind but could be used for drawing a weapon or casting a fishing pole)
-some sort of arm thrust (maybe punch, maybe stab, maybe really hard knock on door)
-talking (I want a little life in the down time so some sort of idle movement that conveys a conversation)
-sleep (this is probably a two parter with the going to the laying position and then the sleeping loop)
-fall to ground (this could be from combat, exhaustion, or whatever else may make you fold onto the ground)
I'll keep it as concise as I can and leave it there.
in case you are interested I'm thinking of making something which at its roots is kind of like Rimworld but actively co-op oriented, and where you can switch between gods eye view to manage stuff in broad strokes, or posses an avatar to more directly be in the world as a player.
-Payments will be via Paypal (we can discuss it on a per person basis, I plan to pay you fairly not asking for a handout)
-You can be credited in game or stay an anonymous freelancer your call
-please give me some basic info about yourself and a portfolio (I'm not looking for a company freelance) you can include rates or we can discuss that at a later date
Thank you for your consideration
