Join an exciting project to bring a unique online multiplayer card game to life
Set in a vibrant US mall and inspired by the bold aesthetics of 1980s pop culture, this project is all about developing a cohesive and visually striking set of digital assets. The technical framework and game mechanics are already established, and we're looking for an illustrator with a passion for retro design and the ability to create a consistent visual direction across a large volume of game assets.
Deliverables
- Develop and execute a distinctive visual style for the game, drawing inspiration from 1980s pop culture and collage art.
- Create a comprehensive suite of digital illustrations for cards, backgrounds, icons, and UI elements.
- Ensure all assets maintain consistency in style, color palette, and thematic direction.
- Collaborate closely with the project owner to iterate on concepts and refine the visual identity.
- Prepare final assets in appropriate formats for seamless integration into the game engine.
