2D Game Art Jobs

I’m replacing the standard mouse pointer in my PC game with a sleek, SCI FI–inspired design. The look should feel futuristic—clean lines, subtle tech motifs—and include a simple animation such as a gentle pulse or light sweep that loops smoothly without distracting players. Here’s what I need delivered: • Static master frame plus 2–4 frames for a seamless, simple loop • Export in .cur/.ani for Windows and a transparent PNG spritesheet for Unity integration • Source file (AI, PSD, or similar) for future colour tweaks • Hotspot set precisely, crisp rendering at both 32 × 32 and 64 × 64 I’ll drop the files straight into the build and confirm the animation runs clean at 60 fps with no artefacts. Share any relevan...

I produce a steady stream of short-form, narrative clips built around colourful humanoid protagonists. Each scene leans heavily on expressive acting, clear facial nuance, clean body mechanics. Think of the punchy timing and rhythmic flow you see in Rennrat, but with an entirely fresh cast and world. @rennrat78/shorts Here’s what I need from you on every piece: • A polished, stylised look that matches the reference quality while remaining unmistakably original. • Story-driven animation: every gesture must support the moment, not just look cool. If you already have reels or individual shots that showcase character acting with a similar stylised flair, drop them in your bid so I can gauge fit quickly. I’m looking to build a long-term partnership and will have a f...

I need a complete 2D animation produced from concept through final render.

I’m building a new IP and need a standout hero created from scratch in a crisp Anime/Manga style. Here’s what I’m after: • One fully rendered, full-body concept of the main protagonist (front view). • A simple turnaround sheet (front, side, back) for modeling or sprite work. • An expression sheet with 3–4 key emotions to capture personality. • A concise color palette and brief written notes on outfit materials or symbols so the design stays consistent in future assets. The character should look ready for an action-adventure title—dynamic silhouette, readable at a glance, and memorable. Clean digital line art and layered PSD/Clip Studio files are preferred so I can tweak small details later if needed. If you have experience shap...

I’m putting together a set of print-ready visuals aimed squarely at Gen Z and I need an illustrator / designer who instantly understands that high-energy, anime-inspired aesthetic. Think Dragon Ball’s Broly or Goku—martial-arts power, exaggerated motion, bold colours—translated into original artwork that can live on posters, tees, flyers or any other print piece I decide to roll out. Here’s what I have in mind: • A small suite of original compositions (we can settle on the exact number together) that scream power and movement while still feeling fresh and current for a Gen Z audience. • Final files delivered in layered AI or PSD plus high-resolution PNG/PDF, sized for common print formats (A3 poster and 12" tee print at minimum). • C...

I’m starting a brand-new 2D platformer and need an experienced Unity programmer to turn my early concepts into a playable PC build.

We’re...

Design Contest: Pieces and Board for a Mobile Strategy Game Prox Games is seeking original visual concepts for Fortress, a competitive two-player strategy game played on a 2D hexagonal board. We will provide an image of the current prototype showing the exact board geometry and piece placement. The geometry cannot change, but the visual theme and presentation are open for exploration.

Because relationships between adjacent pieces are central to the gameplay, the board must remain exceptionally clear and readable. Each piece has a strength number that changes based on the position of the pieces, so this must be accounted for in the design as reading this number will be the main way the user visually e...
