Yes, I make enough to support myself entirely. The other two games are no longer sold on my site because they were my first games, and were not that good.

I'll PM later tonight. I really liked the midi music in the adventures of fatman, and $250 seems a very reasonable amount.

Xeno Assault 2's soundtrack was not in MIDI format, it was MP3/OGG. I only want midi for this game because I like its retro feel, and its small file size.

Just as an example I payed $400 for the soundtrack to Xeno Assault 2, which can be found at the link I posted. I do know that its not going to be cheap.

I would like to point out I am not a newbie in this area. I have made and released 5 games commerically, and I make enough to support myself. I know the shareware games market well, and I know my abilities. This game will be released, it will be good, and it will make money. I know what I'm doing.

Obviously I am fully prepared to pay, even if the game doesn't make enough to cover costs. As I said you will be payed on delivery, no matter how well the game performs.

Please take a look at http://www.jaggedbladesoft.com

My role with be everything except the areas which I mentioned. IE.

Story, Design, Scripting, GUI Art, Website, Marketing.

If I cannot find anyone here, I will go to a a professional artist. However I would rather employ someone who has knowlage of AGS. And because I wan't to involve this community in this project.

Hello,

I'm looking into starting a commercial project using AGS. The game will use mainly cartoon style graphics (something like money island) and a MIDI soundtrack. I would be using 640x400 resolution (with background at 640x280, because of a static menu bar).

I like to think that I have reasonable ability in both art and music composition, however it is not to a commerical quality that is needed for shareware games these days. I have written several shareware computer games, so I know the level that would be needed.

Basically I would like to find out if anyone on this board would be willing to either draw backgrounds, animate characters or compose MIDIs. I will be paying for each piece on completion to my satifaction. If possible please let me know how much you would charge and how long it would take you for each of these things. And also examples of your previous work would be good.

One static 640x280 Background, 16bit

One animated 640x280 Background, 16 bit, about 4 frames (running river, flickering lights etc)

One 3 minute midi track

One fully animated player character. This would include walking (4 directions), talking (3 directions), idle (4 directions) plus 10 misc animations, of about 10 frames each (throwing a ball, climbing a ladder etc). The character would be roughly 50x120.

One static NPC, with talking and idle animation, and maybe 1 misc animation of about 10 frames.

One moving NPC, with walking, talking, idle and maybe 1 misc animation.

Thanks!
