Project Description:

Hi,

I am developing some "old-school" 8-bit style video games for my own educational and hobbyist purposes. I need someone who can create sprite graphics, tiles, etc. for the game. These games will be similar to burgertime, gyruss, (original) mario bros., etc.

You may use your own tools, although some use of proprietary tools I provide may be helpful. Experience with Parallax's HYDRA game development kit is a HUGE plus.

Successful completion of this project could lead to future work.

Again this is for my hobby so bid accordingly. Thanks and good luck!

Skills required:

Caricature & Cartoons, Game Design, Graphic Design, Logo Design, Photoshop

    Hey there

    Please have a look at my gallery at http://johnblunt.deviantart.com

    I am basically a 3D modeler, but can easily create sprites as well. What kind of style are you going for with this game?

    Wish you good luck on your project.

    Since this is for hobby, what is your reasonable expected deadline for this project?
    If this is not for commercial work, I am willing do it for gratis, but over a longer period of time. What do you think?
    Win-win situation.

I am a fellow game enthusiast who is looking for side work. I am not very experienced with graphics, and usually rely on Paint to create my images. However, I think I may be able to help you create some images for 8-bit games, and some of the games you listed as examples are my favorites (I enjoy Burger Time way too much :) ). I can provide artwork from my own games at your request. less
