Anyone need a (3d) programmer for a small project

As the title suggest I'm a programmer and I'm willing to donate my time to help with a small project. My main goal is to get experience working with a team and a finished game under my belt to have something to show to others. This would be something to do in my spare time. I'm not looking for a huge project. Something like a simple platformer or short FPS game.

[Introduction] Hi, MadByte here!

I wanted to take a moment to introduce myself to you guys.

Hello everyone, I'm MadByte, 25 years old from Germany!

This seems to be a really nice (and talented) community I'd love to join in. I came over from the LÖVE forums (which btw is an awesome community too!), maybe some of you know the framework as well.

Howdy! I'm Avery. How d'you do?

This September, my CC/free game asset-focused event, Freesource Jam, begins! It's a six-week affair where participants create new, free-to-use assets and/or games involving them. You can find the itch.io page HERE.

Untitled Platformer Project

Hey guys and gals. Long time lurker. While lurking, I have also been writing a platforming game engine in Java. With the help of some of the sprites pulled from this fantastic website, I have just about finished the game engine itself. I intend to use it to make a metrovania style game eventually, once it's more polished. Still having some trouble implementing a hook shot type item. Right now I have incorporated projectiles, grenades, npcs, a physics system for the platforms and some other stuff. Your sprites have been an awesome resource for developing the prototype.

Main Thruster:

Rotation

Fullstop

Laser 

Missile Barrage

 

THey are made for an Asteroids like controll scheme. What would you want for that set? Any touch ups or additions?

Use sprites to draw pictures - which software?

Hello! :)

I need some advice about drawing pictures: starting from single sprites, which is the best software / tool to merge them in a single picture, like the ones many of you are using as preview? I would like to make some images starting from sprites (like pages of a story) but i cannot decide how to procede... Any tips?

Thanks in advance, have a great day!

Help me find Game Art Link (can't find it)

The title of the folder is called platform_gfx.

I am not sure what license it was but I labeled it open 4 months ago.

Help developing my puzzle game

Hello all, I have hatched an idea for a puzzle game which I think will be a good goal for me and not overly ambitious for a beginner-level project.

Here are my ideas--

You Were JUST Hired?

Recently? And finished a project? And might be looking for work in the near future? And have a portfolio you can post?

 

If so, please let me know. This is more of a general query and not a job offer. But I'm a bit tired of asking artists individually and want to have an idea of the actual potential hires this site can offer.

 

So. Again. Anyone available in the near future with a portfolio to post too?

 

This isn't a job offer. But I'm not sure where it goes.
