I am building an 8-minute playable vertical slice for a 2D side-scrolling action game, to show to investors. Hand-painted style, gritty sci-fi, warm desaturated palette, strong backlighting. Painterly rather than vector-flat or pixel art. I have finished concept art for six environments. I need them rebuilt as production-ready game backgrounds. What you would deliver • Six environments rebuilt as separated parallax layers (sky / far / mid / playfield / near / atmosphere), each with alpha, plus a flat collision layer • Each environment extended horizontally to 3–4 screens; two of them also extended vertically to 2 screens • A modular kit of roughly 50 reusable pieces — floors, platforms, ladders, catwalks, walls, market stalls, crates, grime overlays — with consistent module height and matching edges • Roughly six to eight unique hero props per area • Target resolution 1920 × 1080. All layers authored 20% larger than frame for parallax overscan. What I am looking for • Portfolio with shipped or production side-scroller backgrounds — specifically layered parallax work, not single illustrations • Experience building modular or tile able kits that do not read as repetitive • Comfortable holding one consistent lighting rule across an entire set • Delivers layered PSDs with named layers, not flattened images How to apply Start your proposal with the word PARALLAX so I know you have read this brief. Proposals without it will not be reviewed. Then send: 1 Two links to side-scroller backgrounds you have made, ideally showing the layer breakdown 2 One example of a modular kit or tile set you have built 3 Your rate and realistic availability Please note: All delivered work must be original and human-authored. AI-generated assets will not be accepted. A full brief and reference pack is shared under NDA once we are in discussion.

PARALLAX — your requirement for six hand-painted environments rebuilt as production-ready layered backgrounds is especially clear, with each area needing to work across multiple screens while retaining one consistent lighting rule. The main challenge will be creating reusable modular pieces that feel natural rather than repetitive once assembled into larger playable spaces. I’d rebuild each environment as properly named PSD layers for sky, far, mid, playfield, near, and atmosphere, including the requested overscan and collision layer. I’d also develop the modular kit and hero props with matching edges, consistent module height, and the same painterly lighting treatment across all six areas. I have hands-on experience with 2D game art, layered parallax backgrounds, modular environment assets, and production-ready Photoshop workflows. Open to reviewing the reference pack and discussing availability and milestones.

Hi, I see you need six finished concept-art environments rebuilt into production-ready, hand-painted 2D game backgrounds for an 8-minute gritty sci-fi vertical slice, with layered parallax, modular assets, hero props, and collision-ready gameplay areas. We have 8+ years of experience in game art, 2D environment design, illustration, and production-ready asset creation. I’d suggest establishing a shared modular grid and material/edge language first, so all six environments remain visually cohesive while the reusable kit integrates seamlessly across areas. I can deliver the six environments as separated sky/far/mid/playfield/near/atmosphere layers with alpha, collision layers, 3–4 screen horizontal extensions, the required vertical extensions, approximately 50 reusable modular pieces, and 6–8 hero props per area. Everything will be authored at 1920×1080 with the requested 20% parallax overscan and maintain the warm, desaturated, strongly backlit painterly sci-fi aesthetic. I’m available to start right away and can work directly from your finished concept art. Let’s discuss the details.
