Cartoon 2D Story Platformer

Job ID: 39859352

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

I’m building a mobile story-driven 2D platformer and need a developer-artist team (or an all-rounder) who can take the idea from concept to a polished release on iOS and Android. The visual direction is firmly Cartoonish: bright colours, expressive characters, and lively environments that feel hand-drawn rather than pixelated or realistic.

Core vision
• Perspective: classic 2D platformer, side-scrolling movement, tight jump physics and responsive touch controls.
• Narrative focus: dialogue, cut-scenes and light choices that influence the flow of each chapter.
• Platform targets: Unity

What I’d like to receive
• A playable vertical slice.
• Final game build ready for App Store & Google Play submission, including icons, splash screens and store-compliant bundles.
• Source project with tidy, commented code and layered art files so future updates are straightforward.

Acceptance criteria
1. Cartoonish art style is consistent throughout UI, characters and backgrounds.
2. Framerate holds 60 fps on a typical mid-range Android handset.
3. Touch controls pass a simple “no-frustration” test: the hero can run, jump and wall-slide reliably.
4. Story text is stored in external JSON or scriptable objects for easy localization.

There’s no hard deadline—I value quality over speed—so we can agree on generous milestones and iterate until the game truly shines. If this sounds like a world you’d enjoy bringing to life, let’s chat about your approach and past platformer work.
