Hello! My name is Kyle McArthur, and I am a professional pixel artist, game designer, and writer seeking paid work. I know this forum is about game art, but I figured I would mention my other skills as well in case you are looking for that triple threat developer to add to your team. If you are indeed someone looking to hire for any of those skill sets, then congratulations, you're in the right place! I'm seeking part time, full time, commission, or contract work (big or small). Sorry, I am not interested in solely rev-share projects at this time.

Some quick facts: I have 9+ years experience as a writer, 4+ years as a game designer, and 3+ years as a pixel artist / animator. I've had 5 of my theatrical plays put on stage, I've worked on several of both professional and hobby games, and I absolutely love what I do.

Bump for great justice!
Please don't bump so much. I know you're just trying to remind people you're accepting work but it is against the rules. If possible try and have some new stuff to show off if you do want to bump the thread.
I am currently still available for more work, so please get in touch! Here's an update of some recent artwork I've posted. (Sorry, is this doing it right this time?)

These are some WIP tiles, but I really like how they are coming along, so I think they're worth sharing.
