Atexia is hiring graphic artists!

Atexia is a promising server with a very simple concept set. The style is that of a fantasy RPG but it contains a flavor of a strategy game. This server will become a gold server upon release (as deemed by the big man himself).

The whole world is laid out in a grid layout and contains a multitude of "item usages" that allow you to do many things with various items. A good example I like to use:
  • Kill a cow to gain 'Side of Beef'
  • Use a 'Cooking Knife' on the 'Side of Beef' to get '4 Uncooked Cow Legs', 'Uncooked Cow Ribs', '4 Animal Fat', '4 Animal Guts'
  • Use 'Sheers' on a 'Pine Tree' to get 'Branches'
  • Use 'Branches' on an 'Empty Stove' to get a 'Loaded Stove'
  • Use a 'Fire Starter' on a 'Loaded Stove' to get a 'Lit Stove'
  • Use 'Uncooked Cow Leg' and/or 'Uncooked Cow Ribs' on the 'Lit Stove' to get 'Cooked Cow Leg'/'Cooked Cow Ribs'
  • Use 'Shovel' on the ground to get a 'Well'
  • Use a 'Bucket' on the 'Well' to get a 'Water Bucket'
  • Use the 'Water Bucket' on a 'Cooking Pot' to get a 'Water filled Cooking Pot'
  • Use the 'Water filled Cooking Pot' on the 'Lit Stove' to get a 'Boiling Cooking Pot'
  • Use 'Animal Fat' on the 'Boiling Cooking Pot' to get '4 Candles'
  • Use 'Animal Guts' on the 'Boiling Cooking Pot' to get 'Bow String'
  • Now you can eat the meat for food, light the candles for visibility and use the bow string on an unstrung bow to gain a new weapon!
  • This is just one of the many examples of "item usages", there are many many more out there!

It may seem a little complex but it just shows the versatility that every single item can hold.

We currently almost have all of the scripting completed (an estimated completion of all the scripting is about 2 weeks) so are now looking for graphic artists! Almost all of the graphical work to do is just basic icons but there is a call for some sprite work and also some tileset work (very simple terrain-style tilesets only!).

I'm sorry I don't have any screenshots to post but there isn't much graphical content to show (almost all the current content is just coding). The server is also in a staffonly like status because that is part of our agreement (since we are using Gold server bodies).

If you wish to gain access to see the server (even if you are just wanting to look), please feel free to contact me via one of my contacts listed in my signature and I'll be happy to give you a personal tour!
