itch.io Community » Game Development » Help Wanted or Offered · Created a new topic [Pixel Art] [Survival Game] Seeking Pixel Artist and Programmer for Multiverse Island Survival Game
hi, I’m working on an exciting 2D survival game set on a mysterious island floating in the void, disconnected from the multiverse. The game is in the concept and early development phase, with a strong focus on pixel art aesthetics and a dynamic survival experience. The player can choose from various beings like a Human, Zombie, Ghost, or Anomalous Entity, each with unique abilities, needs, and ways of survival.
The island is filled with remnants of previous inhabitants, with discoverable lore through notes and comic-style videos. These notes, often written in ancient glyphs, require special tools to decipher. The game will feature a day-night cycle, resource management, and exploration of structures ranging from medieval ruins to futuristic labs.
Current Team and Progress:
I’m the lead designer and writer, and I’ve already developed the core concept and some Test Animates. Right now, I’m looking to expand the team to bring this vision to life.
What I’m Looking For:
- Pixel Artist: Someone who can help define the visual style of the game, create character sprites, environment tiles, and UI elements. Experience with 2D animation is a plus!
- Programmer: Preferably someone with experience in Monogame. You'll help bring the gameplay mechanics to life, including the survival systems, AI behavior, environment interactions, and if possible, Shading system or procedural programming.
Compensation:
This is currently a passion project. However, the goal is to launch the game on platforms like Itch.io, with revenue-sharing as an option once the game is completed. If the project is successful, we might release it on Steam.
