[Edit: The position has been filled, thanks for all the interest!]
It’s time to let the cat just a little bit out of that bag to announce that xii games is looking for a background artist to fill a paid position on an upcoming retro-styled commercial adventure-game project.
The game is set in a not-so-distant future when a particle physicist’s mysterious and spectacular death sparks a race to find his hidden vault and claim his terrifying new discovery.
The team currently consists of:
- Vince Twelve (Linus Bruckman, Anna) writing, design, programming
- Shane “ProgZMax” Stevens (The Shivah, Mind’s Eye) character art
- Nikolas Sideris (Linus Bruckman, The Forgotten Element) music, SFX
We are looking for a talented artist to create 320×240 background images for this lengthy adventure. This position will be paid.
We will work together to find a style that works for everyone, but the backgrounds should be of a commercial quality circa early ’90s.
Some examples of what we’re looking for in terms of quality include:

| The Blackwell Legacy | Flight of the Amazon Queen | Reactor 09 |
If you’re interested send an email to vince@thexiis.com. Please include a description of any relevant experience and, if possible, a sample background suitable for use in a 320×240 adventure game.
Ok… you got my attention. BTW, Vince, do check your email…
