This is to all who have, or may know people who posses, talents or aptitudes in the areas I seek,
I am starting quite the iOS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IOS) game project and I am currently looking for partners, freelancers, spare-timers, or random helpers.
The game will be a side-scrolling platformer akin to the Mario and Sonic games of old. It will be in a retro 8-bit/Sprite/Pixel (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pixel_art) type art style with some flashy modern bits mixed in of course. There will also be a fair bit of emphasis on audio.
The art will be primarily tile sets (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tile_set#Tile_set) based on 32x32 pixel grids (if any of you have ever played animal crossing and made designs then you should be familiar with this size). Adobe illustrator (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adobe_Illustrator) is primarily what will be used for the tile creation since its art is done in scalable vector graphics. A great tutorial on doing this can be watched on youtube here: . I have already made 32x32 pixel grid template files for both Adobe illustrator CS4 and CS5 and they can be downloaded from my personally owned web host here: http://www.wakadoos.com/ios_project_files/. Mapping will then be done with the amazing free program called Tiled (http://www.mapeditor.org/).
If any of you are interested, or know anyone who might be, and would be able to work or assist me in any way (programing, graphics*, design* and/or audio*) please let me know.
