I’ve recently decided to help a fellow game maker with their backgrounds. I’ve never worked on someone else’s project before, so it’s a change for me to draw what someone else wants. The project is called “The Universal Hope” and is a GxB/fantasy game (we GxB developers have to stick together right? lol ). I think it has an interesting concept. I personally love fantasy games. Read about it here.
For this game I’ll be doing the background linearts which is the best part as far as I’m concerned and it’s why I accepted in the first place. While it’s harder because I have to figure out the angle and what needs to be in the scene, coloring isn’t my strong point, I believe.
So, here are a few examples of what I did so far.
Hey how do you download this game?
If you’re talking about the game in this post, The Universal Hope, it isn’t out yet.
Hello! I think you are an amazing background artist. Well, actually, I think you’re all around amazing, but that’s besides the point. There is an upcoming Sci-fi otome game called Astral Affinity, which I think shows really great promise and they’re looking for a talented background artist. You’re the first person I thought of when I read that, so if you’re at all interested and aren’t already swamped with life, I think you’d be an awesome addition to the game team!
Just a disclaimer here, but I’m actually not affiliated with Astral Affinity at all, and am contacting you about this because I think you’re so talented.
And, just so this post isn’t completely a plug, I absolutely adored Summer Found Me. It seriously is one of my favorite otome games and the feels it gave me…<3 You have made this shy lurker come out and say something you impressed me so much! So, I hope you know how wonderful both you and your game are, because I will send you a motivational message everyday if you don't! Amazing people should always know how amazing they are ^_^
I hope everything in your life is going well and any hardships will only lead to bigger and better things for you!
Hey there! First of all, thank you for the kind words. ^^
Astral Affinity looks like a really cool game, and when it comes out I’d really like to play it. I’m really flattered that you thought of me, but unfortunately I’m no good at drawing sci-fi backgrounds (it’s true, I haven’t tried all that much), and I have so much I want to do for my own games, not to mention other non-VN related hobbies. If I had more free time, maybe I would have given it a shot, but right now I really can’t. 😦 Thank you for introducing me to the game though. It looks very promising.
Ah, that’s okay! I appreciate the time you took to look at it. 🙂 I completely understand that you have a ton to do, making games is a ton of work and I really admire that you do it! I’m looking forward to all of the games you’re working on (I loved the Poison Sweet excerpt you posted today and have debated posting a comment there, but the shyness… >///<) and am glad you still have time for other hobbies! All work and no play is no way to live! ^^
Again, thank you very much for replying and looking at Astral Affinity! I wish you all the best of luck on everything you're working on, and hope the inspiration fairies visit you soon. ^_^
