2D Sprite Artist Call.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hi there, this is a project being revived. There is a big potential in this game, it is called Whispers in Akarra.
(Medieval type RPG, but yet..not so medieval)
First of all! The spriting necessary for this game isn't that difficult but it has a theme that needs to be followed! 16x16 ingame and 32x32 inventory as well as possibly some portraits for NPC and building/spriteset spriting which would require bigger dimensions. If you feel interested in any of these domains email me at JohnPawlak@gmail.com
To check out what the game looked like, a site is being worked on, im not sure if the web designer put up the screenshots page yet.
The forums are located at: http://akarra.org/forums/

The game is a 2D isometric mmorpg that used to have 400-500 users playing it in its pre-alpha stages (testing). The game runs while continualy being worked on. At the moment the game is down and big work is being done, Public testing is schedueled for a release very soon (x-mas). The game has very good editors for each field, be it mapping, spriting, skills, effects, tileset, spriteset, creatureedit, itemedit, textureedit and more.
The editors are programmed so well that it helps really increase productivity tenfold. Many of the old artists have moved on. There still are three/four artists and a couple mappers, and a person for each editting field, as well as a web designer, and two programmers.
Fields that are currently open and needed: Artists - 2D isometric, small pixels, items/creatures. Map: houses/castles/terrian which are considerably larger.
Mappers: Strict, which will probably hold contests with free use of map editor + small tutorial, then the choosing of a select few to complement those who are already there.
Scripters: This includes: writing stories, writing quests and NPC dialogues.
Programmers that are interested are welcome to check it out.
This game does not follow those small MO's with their wierd anime graphic characters and monsters. It's more realistic and very appealing.
Hope to hear from you!
P.S. The IRC button or Forum thread will lead you unto the mIRC where you can contact devs at any time: look for the '@' infront of their names.
