SUMMARY: 2D top-down illustration and basic animation, medieval tactical RPG, about 5 hour game scope, revenue share with negotiable minimum, hoping to finish this year
Hi! We're Grid Paper Games, currently a team of three - programmer, game designer and composer.
We're currently looking for an artist for our first commercial release - Of The Righteous.
Fair warning, of course, that this is our first commercial project, but it's not our first game. We have enough experience in project management to get this out the door.
Of The Righteous is a tactical RPG set in the late medieval time period. It's about two opposing political gangs fighting in the slums for who pulls off the coup of the reigning monarchy.
It is viewed at a 45 degree top-down angle. It looks entirely 2D, and all the art is 2D, but it takes place in 3D behind the scenes. The first attached image shows how this all comes together.
The game is planned to be about five hours long with two mostly distinct routes. Assets will often be reusable between routes. You will also do some simple animations - no full-fledged cutscenes, but typical walk, combat, and environment stuff. We're hoping to release the game this year.
Keep in mind all developers are in school, so most progress will happen this summer, but we hope to either finish it this summer (cope) or keep pushing through the school year. Despite this most of the team is chronically online consistently available, so we'll expect you to be too.
Payment is 20% of all the game's revenue, with a negotiable minimum in case the game underperforms.
If you're interested, DM us with a portfolio, and optionally create concept art using the layouts provided in the below messages. Thank you for your interest!
