    I'm looking for a creative concept for a simple online educational game for players aged 10 and up. The game should focus on giving old cabinets a second life. Many old cabinets are made from hardwood and plywood, and even when they're damaged or outdated, much of the material can still be reused. Instead of throwing them away, the goal is to show how they can be repaired, restored, or turned into new cabinets or other furniture. I want the game to make this process fun and interactive while helping players understand the value of reusing materials and reducing waste. What I'm Looking For A simple, creative game idea that's fun and easy to play. Gameplay that involves repairing, restoring, or rebuilding furniture.

    I’m looking for an experienced casino slot game artist to handle the visual and audio production for a new online slot game. This is not a general mobile game art project. I’m specifically looking for someone who has previous experience working on casino slots, social casino games, or professional slot-style games. The backend, game logic, math integration, and most coding will be handled separately using Claude Code. Your main responsibility will be making the game look, animate, and sound like a polished professional casino slot. You may need to work with the existing HTML5/game structure to make sure your assets and animations integrate correctly, but you will not be responsible for building the backend.

    Trophy icon Large Space Station Layout

    I’m building a 2D pixel-art game and need a side-view drawing that reflects a space station complex. The look must lean heavily into a futuristic, high-tech aesthetic. The illustration itself does not have to be pixelated; a crisp vector or high-resolution raster file will do fine. At minimum, the station should feel truly “general purpose.” That means a clearly defined command center on the bridge level, spacious living quarters, interconnected research labs, a brig, medical bay, and a dedicated recreation area. Please lay these out logically so that traffic flow between critical areas feels believable (e.g., med-bay near living quarters, brig isolated but still reachable from the command deck). This is part is incredibly flexible, do what you think works best. If you...

    I’m ready to move Landed from concept to a touch-ready prototype. The game is a mobile-first, multiplayer life-sim where players arrive in a new city, balance money, energy, belonging and homesickness while prices rise, run savings circles with friends, host dinners and track down hard-to-find ingredients. Although designed with diaspora and migrant communities in mind, it should feel welcoming to anyone. Engine & platform I’ve settled on Godot so the build targets both Android and iOS from a single codebase. Lightweight networking will support real-time or asynchronous play.

    I need a single thumbnail for my game that feels instantly welcoming and playful. The overall look must stay pastel and soft, with gentle tones that avoid any harsh contrasts. The only element in frame will be the main character, shown from the waist-up so facial detail reads clearly even when the image is reduced to storefront size. That character should look surprised and curious—wide-eyed, mouth slightly open, body angled forward as if just spotting something intriguing off-screen. No enemies, no cluttered background; a simple vignette or subtle gradient behind the character will keep the focus where it belongs while also helping the colours pop. Please create the art at 1920×1080 for flexibility, but make sure it still reads crisply when cropped to 1280×720 and down...

    I’m looking for a freelancer to create specific additional 2D animation clips for a children's film. I've created the first 7 minutes using OpenArt AI, and it's important that new clips align with this style. The tasks include: - Generating additional animation clips using OpenArt or a similar tool to maintain consistent visuals with the existing footage. - Cleaning up and addressing continuity issues in AI-generated visuals when needed. This is a straightforward task with minimal creative input, as the film's style and direction are already set. The focus is on delivering polished, matching clips for me to integrate into my edits in Final Cut Pro. Cost-effectiveness is crucial as I'm working within a tight budget.

    I’m expanding my visual novel and need fresh character sprites that slot seamlessly into Ren’Py. The look must stay true to my current Anime/Manga direction, so clean line-work, soft cel shading and the same proportion rules you’ll see in the reference pack are essential. Here’s what I need you to deliver: • One fully-posed base body per character, layered so I can toggle limbs, eyes and mouth independently. • Expression variants for happiness, sadness and anger built on that same base (no redrawing the whole figure each time). • One to two distinct outfits per character, each broken into tidy layers for easy recolour and accessory swaps. • Final files in organised PSDs plus transparent PNG exports sized for 1080p scenes; naming conventi...

The overall preference is a traditional anime aesthetic, and for each variation I want the trademark big, expressive eyes to shine.
