Hello guys, how it's going? I'm new here and I hope not missing steps into presentations or something but I'm writing here today because I started a little project some days ago and a little help should be comfortable to me. So before start talking about what i'm searching I'm going to tell you something about me ..

So my name is Malcom and I'm a programmer for the most, but i'm also 2d-3d artist, music producer and this is for the most my background. I've already developed games .. nothing seriuos just private projects to get into the world but I'm fast on learning and in these days as I said I'm working on a new project based on Solarus Engine. Just to say before finding that engine I started writing by myself in java the game, and I've made my sprite moving in 2 days but It taken to me too much time so for this reason i moved on Solarus.

I'm a cyber security researcher also and I'm going to say that the idea for my game project came out from that side, the game i'm working on is called "Virus.exe" ( i'm not good in titles so that is just a temp name ^-^' ) and the main part of the plot is that : you're a new born virus and you need to take down the Internet jumping from pc to pc fighting against Antivirus, Firewalls, obtaining powerups and everything. Of course the plot i wrote is more complicated this was just a general line and inside the Game Design I'm working on there's everything about all stuff in the game. By my experience I've tested that telling EVERYTHING about a project could cause some escape of ideas so this is what I can tell on this thread.The game design is still under development and I decided to not continue that until I got some good concepts for the main character ( the virus ) just because I wanted to proceed with all necessary resources for this project. 

So guys I'm and artist too so I know how this world works and I'm going to tell you that I can pay for a good collaborator that will help me on what I need for this project. I'm not a kid . I'm not coming here asking for the best arts for free but if there's someone motived who wants to help in free time without money it would be awsome and honestly ( as anyone i think ) i'd prefer it.I want just to underline that I'm not seeking for something open, I mean sprite licenses just because I'd like to give a unique game with private drawings. I've already created some spritesheets by myself and if I invest some time on this side i can make it on my own but the time we got it's counted and... most probably you know that better than me i can't proceed with a good rythm working on both sides: programming and drawing . By the way under this plot the effort is higher on the fantasy of thinking of the sprite to make.

In the end I say that the game i'd like to develop will be something really well done, nothing will be missed or lost ... I want to build a good game, from player to players giving a good taste of pixel art Zelda like merged to a really funny plot. 

Thanks for your time I hope i've been clear, sorry for my english but I'm from Italy soo ... Anyway I hope someone will be interested in this project and if you some questions or you want to know something more about the game or me just send me a message and I'll be happy to answer you .
