ES Dev Team - ART POSITION OPEN!

Random irrelevance that just didn't fit into other forums. Talk about anything.

Position's still available. Last three that requested interviewee group status never posted an app to the interviewee forum.

Also, if nobody approves your interviewee group request within a couple days, email me or Gyro.
I realized the moment I fell into the fissure that the book would not be destroyed as I had planned.

Art position is still open. To apply, you'd sign up for the "interviewees" usergroup, then post a resume. There's some sample ones up and some pending ones, as well.

I have added you to the group now, so the forum entitled "Interviewees" should become visible to you. Post your resume if you're actually interested. But I suggest you try to learn as much as you can about our art and what we're wanting before applying. ;p

Reading other resume's that we've responded to, watching places in our youtube serious where we mention art, looking at the art that our current artists have created...

Right now, we're mainly looking for a PIXEL artist who can do tiles and sprites that SYNC WITH OUT CURRENT ART. You can do that, then things will be looking pretty good for you, haha.

Anyway, best of luck to you. Will be looking for your resume.

I can do good. If I'm accepted, would my work be put in the game?

Lol. That's kind of a stupid question isn't it?

The application process is LONG and painful. We all have to be 100% sure that we like you, your work, and are confident that you can continue to produce usable art and won't bitch out. And as a new rule you'll be required to agree to a prenuptial type deal...The entire team has done it. It's an agreement that your work belongs to the team as a whole (incase a year in the future you decide to retract all your art and leave us fucked, or Gyro decides to take away the engine or something lame like that).

And there's already another applicant that we've currently reviewing. Some friendly competition never hurt anyone...RIght? ;p

But yes...If accepted, you'll be given access to private development, our repositories, all our tools, etc. You'll be part of the team and the game will be as much yours as ours. Doing art for us isn't doing us a favor...It's becoming a team member. ;p

Again good luck to you and i"ll be looking for your resume.

Prenuptial type deal? I wasn't looking to going into a bunch of legal crap or whatever. I just want to make sprites for you to use.

Haha nothing "legal" about it. Just a "I agree that you can use my art that I made for you, even if I eventually quit the team" post. Though I do like the way you put that. ;p

Yes. PIXEL art. Namely characters (32x64 px) and TILES (32x32).

I requested said group status... But don't be expecting too much from me I'll check things out and get on top of it when I can... I most likely will post on the regular forums if I don't think I can live up to your expectations... and I may not be able to do any art for a while.... Just because... ;)

Edit: I'm not saying that if I accept I won't work my butt off I'm saying as of right now I need to see exactly what you want, and do some demos, then just go from there :mrgreen:
