[PAID GIG - pixel art and animation] Colony games is looking for new art director!

Hey y'all! Colony games looking for a new AD as the title says. I've worked on the company's game named Rolan's Quest over the past few years but now it's time to move on and we're looking for my replacement.

The most important thing to know is that Rolan's Quest is a game with SNES style pixel art visuals in the ilk of Seiken densetsu 3 and Chrono trigger so applicants must know how to design and animate pixel art really well.

Here's Colony games' website - http://www.colony-games.com/ . You can take a look at the gameplay video to see the type of aesthetic the game is aiming for.

Other things the company is looking for is the ability to oversee/critique assets made by other people and the passion to see the project to completion.

Experience working in the gaming industry is definitely a plus.

For more info - rates, hours, more details about the position, just email my boss at bkarcher@colony-games.com

Try asking @ScepterDPinoy -- I am not sure if he is able or has the time, but he is most certainly capable.

The game more inspired by Secret of Mana (especially the little shrubs and flowers in the background), but a smoother moving. Would be cool if it would have a similar (or a more kirby-esque) local co-op feature in it.

I'm not sure about the whole 'director' function part. But the SNES style spriting sounds right up my alley, and I've been wanting to make some bucks on the side by throwing down pixels.
Be my guest and take a look at my uploads here. Then I'll go ahead and dump a collection of little custom pixel/animation stuff to your boss.
