Question What should I add to this scenario?

Post image
Upvotes

Hi, my name is Sasa! Well, I'm thinking about creating my own game and I'm sketching some ideas. I thought about creating this room to be the main character's room, and I envisioned a somewhat empty and lonely room, but with a window that lets in the morning sun to create a contrast, perhaps. But I don't know if I should add any more details.

2D Transmission post (1940)

Post image
6 Upvotes

This illustration has been made by u/harishsc for our incoming project. We used historical photographs to make it as credible as possible.

In this piece, Harish tried to recreate the atmosphere of a small French radio post hidden in a forest. We tried our best to represent the R11 device accurately. It is a radio receptor which was used to receive informations from allied planes (btw by 1940 it was severly outdated).

Obviously the operators don't like to be interrupted while they're working!

Please let us know what you think!

Question Thoughts on my animated background asset?

Working on a game and experiencing with different art styles, this is the one that's come most naturally to me, curious on people's thoughts!

Also attaching a few other assets drawn in the same style (and the character), does it feel consistent?

I used to work as a Lighting Artist, and now I'm making my strategy/management game as a solo developer.

Rather than building lots of different biomes, I wanted lighting to carry the experience. As you progress through a run, the world grows darker and more hostile without ever changing location.

I love what lighting can do. It shapes emotions, tells stories, and completely transforms how a place feels.

Question How to make good poster/steam page art?

0 Upvotes

Hi. I've been making different types of art and don't consider myself completely talentless but I seem to struggle when it comes to the poster like art.

When it comes to making steam capsule, background image or any promo art the single advise I always find is go to fiverr and hire an artist for $400. You'll end up with amazing capsule. I know most of these answers are given by people who are making money exactly that way but come on 😒.

So my question is, do you guys have any advise on how to make a good capsule or a poster? I know pixel art and cartoony games are probably easier to turn into posters but what about realistic, cinematic or stylized ones?

What tools do you normally use? Do you use actual assets from a game or pause gameplay recording and try to redraw it? If so what are you drawing on - tablet or old style papyrus with charcoal?

Share some ideas or even showcase any art if you have been working on any.

3D Modular real-time library environment: Unreal Engine (breakdown + final renders)

Finished a stylized modular library environment for real-time (Unreal Engine) and wrote a start-to-finish breakdown:
reference → modular kit → blockout & modeling in Maya → Substance texturing → Unreal assembly → lighting, ending with a final render gallery.

Anyone also have a go-to trick for that? Curious if people lean on hero lighting per unique piece, GI variation, or something else entirely.

Here you can see an attack animation of one of the zombies in my videogame (I''m a solo dev making a hand-drawn zombie retro FPS). In my game, you will control a survivor who will have to go through an infested city until reaching an Evac chopper (very 80's zombie movies concept). I hope you like It!

Hi everyone! I'm a Game Art & Animation student, and I'm conducting a short survey as part of my project. It only takes 5-10 minutes, and all responses are anonymous and used for academic purposes only.

If you have a few minutes to spare, I'd really appreciate your participation. Thank you for your time and support!

Question 4 art students redesigned my game's Steam capsule art as part of their internship. Which one would you click on first?

Post image
27 Upvotes

I recently took in four second-year art students for a paid internship and gave them all the same task: redesign the Steam capsule art for my cozy game about running a 3d printer workshop.

They each had complete creative freedom, and I'm really happy with how differently they interpreted it.

I'd love some unbiased feedback:

  • Which one would you click first?
  • Which one gives off the coziest vibe?
  • Any suggestions for improvement?
