Sprite and BG Artists Needed!

Heyo!

I'm looking for a 2D artist to join my game development team! I have two unique visual novels in the works and need a talented artist to help my visions come to life! (payment options can be discussed in messages!)

Do you meet any of these standards? If so, message me! I'd love to talk to you more! 1. You have to be comfortable in and around diverse spaces. These games are meant to represent everyone and bigotry of any kind will not be tolerated! 2. Any art style is accepted! Have multiple styles under your belt? Even better! 3. Bonus points if you have past experience in making game art! 4. Extra bonus points if you have experience drawing non-humans! (like alien/anthro/robot!)

Not sure if you meet the criteria? Shoot me a message anyway! I love meeting new people and would be happy to talk to you about what I'm looking for!

Untitled Space Game (needs a title) (#space game) "Hello? Is anyone there?" As you learn how to maneuver this foreign spaceship both physically and mentally, you discover that the universe might be a little nicer than you first thought.

Crumbs, a short life sim game, releases now.

It’s the 12th of May, 2022. You wake up to an anemic day, significant in all it lacks. You will stay at home, doing your menial tasks; you will not move mountains, and you won’t change the world.

Crumbs is a 20-25 minute short autobiographical simulation game made in RPG Maker 2003. You play as Quinn, a little animal in a world that has no horizon, trying to amuse themselves, even as their spirit is eroded by the things they try to forget.

This game is my “goodbye” to this engine. In creating it, I bumped up against hurdles in RM2k3’s construction that show me it’s time to move to greener pastures.

It has been featured by @pizzapranks in this month’s issue of Indiepocalypse:
