Captain Jeremy - Point-and-click Adventure Game (2D Animators - 5 Roles)

Project Overview

Captain Jeremy (Full title TBA) is a point-and-click psychological horror game, with gameplay inspired from the classic 90s adventure games such as Pajama Sam, Sam and Max, and The Secret of Monkey Island.

This is a commercial game aimed for a full release in late 2027-early 2028 on both PC (Steam, Epic Games) and Consoles (PlayStation, Xbox, Nintendo Switch).



I am looking for 5 additional 2D animators to join the team and help work on this project.

Guidelines:

  • Have to be 18+.

  • Requires Legal Signing (NDA, Independent Contractor Agreement, Etc)

    • These agreements will require identification such as legal name and address and you will be asked for them if you're accepted.
      Please do not include them in your submission.

  • Payment is done solely through Paypal.

  • Project is task based:

    • You will be given 2-4 weeks to complete a task, depending on the complexity.

    • Tasks are priced at $100-$120.



There are 5 available roles:

  • 3 Key Animator - You will be creating what is essentially the first draft of the animation. This can consist of both character and environmental animation and you will be working on either gameplay or cutscenes.

  • 2 Clean Up + Coloring Animators/Key Animator - You will be receiving the first draft from the Key Animators and cleaning up the animation. This consists of: Line-art, making sure characters stay on reference, adding missing details and lip-syncing, and finally shading and coloring.

    • Additionally you may be given some Key Animator tasks. These will only happen when all other Key Animators are occupied.

Below are two examples, one for a cutscene and the other for gameplay:

Left is be made by the Key Animators. Right is the clean version by the Cleanup Animators



Submission Requirements:

  • Discord is required for communication. Please submit your Discord username with your submission. If you are accepted I will reach out to you through Discord

  • Submit through this website's submission system. Submissions through private DM's won't be accepted.

General Information & FAQ:

  • Q: Is there a specific software that I need to use?

    • There is no restriction on animation software as long as it is able to support importing and exporting psd files, individual animation frames (A sheet of PNGs), and mp4 or mov files.

  • Q: What if I can't complete a task within the given time frame:

    • If you need more time on a task, please let me know as soon as possible. Situations may arise where you need some extra time and that's totally understandable, but please let me know and do not ghost. I will also reach out once a week for a progress update.

  • Q: How frequent are tasks?

    • Tasks are generally first-come, first-serve in terms of frequency. If there is one available and you are ready to do it, then you'll be assigned one. If there isn't one available, you may have to wait anywhere from a few days to a few weeks. I will reach out to let you know when a task is available.
