Need an Artist. 2006-01-12 12:47:49 Reply

Hello again, Newgrounders. This morning I was told by the animator of one of my games that he was 'not in the mood' for a strategy game. Therefore, I need a new artist for a 2D strategy game. It was supposed to be a game with mechs, but I can change it to whatever you want since we won't be using his graphics.

Although it was meant to be a classic mech strategy game(not very original :P) since I need a new artist now we could make it more original, like an army of nerd cavemen, or other funny things. I've been thinking about the cavemen idea and is sounds the best to me. Maybe you could have fat cavemen, and nerd cavemen as the most basic units :) Then you could hire mamooths, discover new drawing-on-walls technologies, etc. :P

I already started working on this project, here are all the features so far and features which are going to be added:
Current features:
- You have a specific amount of oil, energy, and metal(which will be changed to fur, wood, and fire for the caveman version).
- You can construct buildings and place them wherever you want.
- There are some buildings you cannot get without building other buildings, like fire technology needed for caveman training.
- Some buildings provide you with resources, when their resource count is finish they are destroyed.
- You can train units if you have the right buildings, just click the training center you want them to be trained from and they will appear right next to it.
- You can scroll around and use the map to navigate.

Features which will be added:
- Buildings will be shown on the map.
- You will be able to select units and move them around.

That's all for now. Some of the features I listed are still a bit incomplete.

My idea of a fat/nerd caveman would be like Gary Larson's cavemen.
Get inspired!

That's a nice caveman, but it's not exactly the style I was looking for. Cavemen should be peaceful and dumb, not angry :P
Have a look at the links I posted.

"Other funny things" you say? Because I have an idea for a game where ancient egyptians (drawn like hieroglyphs) battle...

Same here... And this is where I get all my tutorials which I show to some of the peeps in a class I help teach... Just cuz we had a numa numa craze, and when you came to ng it would say something like
