Paper Planet Art Contest! ($$ Prizes)

New Topic Respond to this Topic

A free web build of Paper Planet was recently uploaded to Newgrounds. That build is actually already over a year old, but it was the most recently one we could to run with consistent stability. You can try a standalone demo on Steam that is much more up to date! The full game releases August 21st, so don't forget to add it to your Wishlist! It helps us out a LOT!



What is Paper Planet?

Paper Planet is a planet-defending, bullet hell/heaven roguelike created by @Willops. It is packed to the brim with references to classic Flash titles and other popular roguelikes that have been great inspirations over the years. Run are meant to be fast, casual, and filled with game-breaking, overpowered item synergies. This game was basically a checklist of everything I love in games old and new! So it is my absolute pleasure for 2 Left Thumbs to be publishing this title :)

Hey I have a question. Does the art have to be how the characters look in game or can it be the human looking versions of them?

You're absolutely free to play around with it, and to make use of the humanoid portraits :)

Sorry, but AI art will not be accepted.

My apologies if my judgement is incorrect here. But it looks awfully similar to these other AI generations, and the wonky hands act as a bit of a giveaway

If you did in fact draw this from scratch, please share screenshots of images/layers from the program it was drawn in.

Dude trying to speedrun the award for the most garbage entry in this contest.


Been playing the beta on steam a ton after playing the demo here, man this is already a great game. I'm definitely going to make a few. You really buffed the red shots, jeez.

I already said this on the server but in case anyone doesn't know the ratio for steam cards is 1920x 1080 px. You know, so that your art doesn't get cropped


Let's give it a try and see how it goes

There are 5 bosses in the public demo.

Make art for any 1 of the bosses (you could submit up to 5 pieces. one for each boss)

Any style is fine.

While I'm certainly no artist myself, I feel like they would accept whatever they are given no matter the quality. If you want to draw art and post it, even if you feel like its not of the highest quality, that should be all up to you to decide.


sorry i'm here, i'm busy doing absolutely nothing at all...

Response to Paper Planet Art Contest! ($$ Prizes) 2023-08-12 01:51:03


Does it has to be digital or traditional art?

Just here to wish you good luck with your release, I have heard really nice things about its mechanics. 🐀👍
