2D PixelArt Artist

About the Position

We are looking for a 2D PixelArt Artist to join our team at Not created yet studio for our upcoming game, Sonder. This is a dark fantasy gacha idle tycoon where you will create visual elements for heroes, workers, scouts, monsters, base elements, and UI.

The Game in One Sentence

Sonder is a dark fantasy gacha idle tycoon in top-down view: you pull and build up a collection (heroes, workers, scouts), upgrade your refuge, assign teams, and watch (or come back later) while they explore, fight on their own, and bring back loot.

Responsibilities

• Create dark fantasy pixel art for unit sprites (heroes, workers, scouts, monsters), base elements (buildings, resources, UI), and UI elements (icons, rarity, bars, buttons).
• Design simple effects (particles, flashes, loot) and optional basic animation (2-4 frames for idle / attack / spells).
• Ensure the art style is readable and consistent with a limited but expressive palette.

Requirements

• Proficiency in 2D PixelArt.
• Experience in creating dark fantasy art.
• Ability to deliver art in sizes 16x16 to 32x32.

What We Offer

• Rev-Share: revenue sharing based on your contribution.
• Priority payment if we secure external funding (Kickstarter, publisher, etc.).
• Artistic freedom: we have a dark fantasy direction, but we want your style.
• Portfolio: a finished, published game, not a dead prototype.

What We Cannot Offer

• No upfront payment. We have no budget. This is Rev-Share, not a salary.
• No guaranteed revenue. If the game makes nothing, you get nothing.

What We Ask in Return

• Seriousness and communication: we're two devs working regularly, we expect the same.
• Short test: make us 3 sketches (one hero, one monster, one refuge building). If the style clicks, we discuss a long-term deal.
• Reasonable availability: no need for 40h/week, but regular progress.

To Apply

Send us:

• Your portfolio (PixelJoint, itch.io, Twitter/X, etc.)
• 3 sketches based on the Sonder universe (hero, monster, building)
• Two lines about you and why this project interests you
