Unpaid Work / [Coder] How to find art partner for a game
« on: May 27, 2020, 06:53:12 pm »
What is the best way to find an artist that is working and / or wants to work on a game?
I’ve got over a decade of coding experience and am confident I can make anything (within reason).

Ideally I’d like to find someone whose already done a lot of art that could fit together in a single game. I’m partial to the pixelated style but whatever the artist is most familiar with matters more.

I’d like to find somebody whose passionate about doing a project and ideally we could split the royalties evenly. I worry that paying someone might make them lose that passion but perhaps I could give someone a forward on royalties if they can’t afford to work without pay for a while.

What’s the best way to approach something like this? I’d love some advice from people who’ve done this before. Or even just tips like “don’t do this annoying thing everyone else does”.

Thanks.

General Discussion / Difficulty in Finding Quality Artists

I'm a programmer and I've struggled with this for years now.  It looks like the 'Work' section doesn't get too many replies.

How do you recommend finding quality talent?  All the times I have it has been through pure luck.

Best,
Dustin Dettmer
