Request/Discussion: Paying SS13 Spriters for custom Project

Post by LordVollkorn » #734142

This might be a bit off an odd post, so it is mostly aimed at Mods, Maintainers and Admins for me to get some feedback on it.

Some Background Information

I have been working on my own, custom game engine since 4 years and code-wise its pretty much done.
I have created my own modding tools and a custom "script-language" for doing all the mapping like you would e.g. in the Skyrim Construction Set.

The one thing that I am severly lacking is sprites.
I am pretty much using placeholders for all textures, and I have come to the realization that I simply cannot provide all graphics by myself.

Why am I asking here of all places?

I am looking for the same style and mostly same size sets of sprites as on tg13.
I want to go into a similar artstyle direction.

In fact, the /tg/-assets and my game engine's requirements are SO similar, that I was able to port them straight over for some tests:
The video is older though and I have come quite a long way since then, with a lot of video documentation on my youtube channel as well.

My Question

Would I be allowed to actively search for interested tg13-spriters (for my own game) via a dedicated Forum Post and via Discord?

Summary & a few more Details
  • I want to look for an ss13 spriter and pay per tileset (30$ for the big tilesets) for my own game.
  • My game is not a single-player version of SS13 (setting is more like medieval fantasy-magic-technology like WoW, GW2 etc.), although with the modding tools I made, creating a single-player SS13 would be extremely easy to do out-of-the-box, for any person.
  • The code is mostly done. The game engine works and is merely lacking textures. (Also Sound and Music, but thats something for a different day).
  • On my youtube channel you can find short and long videos where I explain all aspects of my game engine in detail.

Since I have posted this, I have already received a bunch of awesome messages from some noice people :D !

Currently everything is looking good, I will just leave up this post in case anyone is interested in my "SS13"-fantasy look-alike.

(Or it can be closed, anything is fine by me :) )
