artists for game project

[jesus]

Hi,

I started a game project a while ago. After some months in the deep vaults of my hd I'm willing to resurrect it. I'm a coder and my artistic skills are limited ;). Thats why I'm looking for some talented artists.

It is planned for the Playstation Portable, and might be a blend of Shoot'em'up, platformer and maybe rhythm genre. The graphics style will be set in nano-scale - home of surreal landscapes and enemies - meaning artistic freedom.

so.. are you interested in game development? ...then read on!

I'm looking for 1-3 people. Skills which might be helpful:
- low and high-poly 3d modelling skills (enemies, levels, background)
- 2d graphics (sprites for weapons, stills, etc)
- maybe painting (enemy design)
- sound fx
- story (if there will be one ;) )

Some more words about the game itself. I have currently one level working on the psp and there are already 3 different kinds of enemies right now. Not much but a good start to put in some nice graphics.
It should be a fun project! It would be nice to have one mind blowing level within the next six months. After that, I/we might look out for a publisher and see ...or just release it as homebrew.

So still interested? Write me a mail to jesusliebtdich -at- gmx.de.
Please include some details about you, sample artwork, what you would like to do, how much time you can/are willing to invest.... etc...


cheers... Tobi

Jesus makes games too? Is this a waterwalk simulator?

ah.. no one interested?
zbrush is perfect for organic looking modeling.
(especially the background).
...and sadly im too bad in arts....

age is not a problem...
it only depends on your artistic skills. So pls send me some artwork. You should at lest be better than me. ;)

So to get a better feeling what the gfx should look like, heres a still of an enemie:

The overall style is inspired by nano-microscopy images:

and here's an actual screenshot of the game:

The newest version has a nice 3d background (this one not).
The main character also needs an update, it would be nice to have him as 3d model.
