Hello! My friend and I are participating in a Secret Santa game jam, where you receive a letter and interpret what to make from the persons hobbies, game interest, etc. The idea that we settled on was a 2D top-down cyberpunk game where the player fights robots using a guitar. We’re aiming for a hardcore hack-and-slash style, where the player mows down groups of robots with their guitar. The idea is still in its early stages and could use some refining, so we’d definitely welcome suggestions and input from anyone joining the team.
We need help with pixel art, as neither of us has the skills to bring the visuals to life. Specifically, we're looking for an artist to create:
-
Characters: The player character (a futuristic rocker) and a variety of robots.
-
Environments: We’re envisioning a cyberpunk UK-inspired setting, filled with neon lights, gritty streets, and a tech-heavy, urban atmosphere.
-
Weapons: The guitar, which will be used as a weapon, as well as any combat effects and UI elements we might need (though we’re not too picky about the UI at this stage).
-
Additional assets: Anything else that could enhance the game’s look and feel.
The jam ends on December 22nd, so we have about 8 days to finish. We’re on a tight deadline, so we need someone who can commit to this project in the coming days. If this sounds interesting and you'd like to join our team, send me a DM on Discord (ChickenGamer)! We’d love to collaborate with someone who shares our enthusiasm and wants to help make this game as cool as it can be.
