You know what... I really want to work on a game, that will actually come out.
Every game I start, or join, fails. Though this may be a reflection of myself (which I honestly doubt) or maybe I just make people around me stop working?
I mean.. I doubt its myself because I take care of all the work I need to do, and more. I do everything I possibly can to make progress... THhe only thing I cannot do, is pixel art. And unfortunately, every pixel artists in BYOND is either -
1) Too 'good' for BYOND, yet still hangs around.
2) Needs money for their 'quality creations'
3) Packs over 9000 hours of shit in everyday of their lives
4(?)) Is plainly terrible at pixel art.
Anyone got any idea's on creating a new wave of decent, timely, Hardworking pixel artists?
P.S - I want to work on a decent game, that will be released, and has people on the team who want the game released.

Good luck with that.

What I'm currently doing is programming a game using crappy placeholder graphics (circles and squares FTW).
That way when the engine is done, I will have a complete list of the graphics needed as well as a finished game to attract decent artists interested in co-ownership. |

There are some pretty amazing free graphics that are around. Even on our own pixel art society forums, there are some real gems there in the free section. I seriously believe that it is entirely possible to create an excellent game using these graphics.
Here's an example: http://i50.tinypic.com/15gqlxs.png That's a screenshot from something I'm working on. All of the graphics in that screenshot came from the free section of the pixel art society forums. |

If you want talent, buy it. Having your own CSS would probably instill a little confidence from others for a start.
