Modern 16 Bit Game Pixel Art

I’m building a new indie game and want every visual element to carry that crisp, Modern 16-bit charm. The job centres on two main areas: the animated character sprites that bring the story to life, and the layered backgrounds that set each scene’s mood.

Here’s what I need from you:

• Character sprites – full animation sets for my heroes, villains and assorted NPCs
• Extra sprite work – weapons, power-ups and any props they interact with
• Tilesets & background layers – seamless tiles for terrain plus larger scenic backdrops that match the palette and perspective of the sprites

I’ll supply a detailed brief for each asset, including palette guidelines, frame counts and target resolutions, and I’m happy to iterate together in Aseprite, Photoshop or your preferred pixel-art tool. Final files should come in organised PNG sheets along with the working source files.

If you have a portfolio of polished 16-bit work and you enjoy collaborating on original characters and worlds, I’d love to see it. Let’s make something beautiful, pixel by pixel.
