Hi guys, I have a game called Nodes, playable demo here: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/51270524/nodes/v 1.3/index.html

Since my last post i updated the game to show the potential :). There are still a few things that need to be done, Like scoreboards, social media integration ect.

but I need a artist, As you can see the art on the game so far is what I have done, Which is why im a programmer and not a artist.

If interested please send me a example of your works, or a sketch of what you plan for the game.
my email: s.mitchell94@hotmail.co.uk

I allready have a audio artist working on this game, And I have artists working on another game, But the other game is a really big project so i do not want to sidetrack them, But any new additions to the team are welcome.

oh actually if there are any sound artists that want to work ok sound(Not music) then please contact me.

I don`t know I just don`t see it very attractive and for me it is kind a boring to move some dots and put them in the right places.

the game a lot of things, buggy as hell, ugly, nowhere near even demo, but boring is not one of them! it could be a killer app on iOS, they love this stuff. That is if u can make variety and keep challenging the player. i would also suggest to use a move counter instead of a timer

Thank you @Doctor-Pepper for your kind words.

This is not the art I plan to use on the final game. Its just what I came up with to show a demo of the logic. I was hoping a user who's better at art than me would collaborate with me as im a programmer.

This is my first casual game, Which is what sells on the IOS market, Im used to big projects, This little game did not take me long to Script. Its not in AS3 but HTML5, Although I can easily enough convert it to AS3.

Its a older version of the game, In the newest copy of it I fixed allot of bugs, For example z-sorting. If one of the nodes overlapped another then you would drag them both, Meaning there was no possible way to finish the level. There was also a few other bugs that i fixed. And i added social integration and loaderboards.

Overall the game is near completion just needs some decent art, I have a really good piece of audio developed by a amazing audio artist. If you look at the link i provided in my first post, it says the game was v1.3. Its now at 2.4 so there is allot changed/fixed.

I also improved the dragging, When a user dragged a node the mouse would directly have to be over the node, Now the Node will follow the mouse more accurately.

The Game does not have to be known as Nodes, and the theme/subject matter can easily be changed.

Most of you probable just played the 2st level, Which was supposed to be easy. Once I Had some solid art i was planning to sit down and work on level design. The game is a puzzle game that would progressively get harder.

Im also working on a level editor so users can design and upload there own levels so the game would technically take care of its self after a while.

I guess if a artist does not want to collab with me then i'll do the art. PLEASE DONT LET ME :P

Thanks.
