2D Game map design

Job ID: 31144191

Budget: $30 – $250 USD

Hey, we are looking for someone that can create a fantasy map. We have a rough idea what we are looking for but we need an expert that can put our idea together in such a way that works. Some basic understanding of how this map will translate as a 3D environment is desirable.

The story is going to be based around the 3 races working together to defeat the evil which resides somewhere in the east to south east. We are looking for the races to be located in specific places. Dwarves on the mountains, Elves near or in a forest and humans in between mountains close to water. The races starting areas have to be close, but not too close to each other, to give them space to explore and develop as characters before meeting other races in higher level areas.

Additional parameter would require a wall-like mountain range north of the map, which will come in between the areas below and the frozen wastes that are beyond the mountain range.

We are looking for the ocean to appear on the west and possibly south west side of the map, with no ocean appearing on other sides, for possibility of land expansion further in the future.

Also, the map should be mostly land, as in, it should be more of a part of continent rather than islands on the same map. The land mass should also be divided to the 3 races in such a way that makes sense with the story provided.

We are looking for the map to be inspired from Lord of the Rings and World of Warcraft maps, for your reference, but they should not be similar in any way.

For the final product we expect something that fits in the parameters above and is of 8000x6500 resolution and that also has height map information to be used in a game engine.

If we find the right person for the job, there will be possibility of future cooperation to develop the maps in further detail and eventually expand the map as well.
