2D Artist / Visual Novel Artist

2D Artist for visual novel SOMNIA, a non-commercial Android game project. Unpaid volunteer role. Remote, Junior level, project-based. Led by Lera.

About the project: A young girl has nightmares every night. In each of them, she finds herself in the same strange world, completely unlike the human world. There, flowers talk, animals understand human speech, and among the unusual inhabitants there are creatures whose existence cannot be explained. At first, the heroine thinks these are just strange dreams. However, everything changes after her return to the old house where she spent her childhood. Her parents moved to France long ago, leaving the house empty. The heroine comes there to tidy it up and prepare it for renovation. In the attic, she finds an old diary. It tells about a mysterious world where elves, sirens, and other unusual creatures once existed. But over time, this world was forgotten, and its inhabitants seemed to disappear. The strangest thing is that the world described in the diary completely coincides with the one the heroine sees in her dream. She decides to keep the diary to try to understand what is happening. What happens next is for the player to find out. What is already ready: - The first part of the visual novel is fully written; - Work on the second part is underway; - The main storyline is planned; - 3 parts are planned; - 6 endings are provided; - The game is aimed at Android. What is needed from the artist: - Character design; - Backgrounds; - CG and story illustrations; - Additional visual elements for the visual novel. A unified visual style and atmosphere are especially important for the project. Inspiration — Alice in Wonderland and Coraline. We would like to combine fairy-tale, mystery, coziness, and a slight anxious atmosphere.
