Thanks so much, everyone!

I’ve received a lot of great applications and there are some seriously talented artists here. I really appreciate everyone who took the time to reach out and share their work.

I’ve now made my shortlist and I’m no longer looking for an artist for this project.

Thanks again for all the interest in Fractured Mind! 💜

Hi!

I’m a solo developer currently working on a psychological horror game called Fractured Mind.

I’m looking for an artist who can create the game’s final key art and a complete Steam art package based on an existing visual concept.

The visual direction is dark, cinematic and psychological, but also vivid and colorful. Strong purple, blue and turquoise lighting is an important part of the game’s identity. I’m specifically not looking for typical desaturated grey/brown horror artwork.

I already have AI-generated concept images that show the general composition, atmosphere and color direction I’m aiming for. These will be used only as visual references. The final artwork, logo and other assets should be newly and originally created by the artist. I do not want generative AI used for the final work.

Concept reference – main direction:

Additional reference for protagonist / facial direction:

I’m ideally looking for someone who can handle the complete visual package, including:

original main key art

adaptations for all required Steam capsule formats

horizontal and vertical Steam/library compositions

Steam Library Hero artwork

Steam store background

an original FRACTURED MIND title/logo treatment

an original game icon/symbol

Demo variants of the relevant Steam graphics

high-resolution source files, preferably layered PSDs

commercial usage rights for Steam, Kickstarter, website, trailers, social media, press and promotional material

The game focuses on psychological horror, fragmented memories, trauma and surreal imagery, rather than gore or traditional monster horror.

I will provide a detailed creative brief and additional references once I find an artist whose style fits the project.

If you’re interested, please reply or message me with:

your portfolio

examples of similar dark / colorful / cinematic work

your quote for the complete package

estimated turnaround time

which source files are included

This is a paid commission. Please send your own rates/quote.

Please do not create unpaid samples specifically for this application. Your existing portfolio is completely enough.

Thank you!

Hi, I'm Dismyrkva, a digital artist, painting dark fantasy and horror! My paintings are more on the realistic side and can be rendered further more if you want a very realistic result.

I'm interested in your project. I have worked on video games in the past, both as a capsule artist and as a concept artist. I've also worked on logos.

You can see my work here: https://dismyrkva.com/illustrations

I can't tell you the exact price for this project right now as I don't know all the details but the price would start at +400 euros. I'm available right now.

If you have any questions or want to tell me more about this project, you can send me an email at: dismyrkva@gmail.com

Hi! I’d love to put myself forward for the key art and Steam art package for Fractured Mind. The dark, cinematic psychological-horror direction with the strong purple, blue and turquoise lighting really caught my attention.

I’m a 2D illustrator and character artist with 6 years of experience, and I’d be happy to work from your existing visual concepts while creating the final artwork as original, hand-made work.
