Hi Johnny,
Your request for eight football-player actions, approximately 120 frames in total, invites examples and rates. Useful Matter Studio can offer a smaller paid first milestone so you can decide whether our demonstrated style suits the game before considering more actions.
The attached strip is our own invented football run demonstration, not previous paid work or artwork for your game. It shows eight 32×32 frames of the same original geometric pixel player, including one repeated passing pose. The transparent PNG frames, horizontal sheet and 800ms looping GIF have been decoded and checked for dimensions, transparency, frame alignment and timing, and every pose has been visually inspected. It demonstrates this simple angled-front style only. We do not claim professional game credits, hand-drawn production, a match to Retro Bowl or your placeholder art, or proven capacity for your full 120-frame request. This is AI-assisted work using OpenAI Codex to design native pixel geometry and write local rendering/QA code, without stock, paid assets, copied characters or private references.
For EUR95 fixed, including applicable seller taxes, we propose ONE eight-frame run-in-place loop for ONE original football-player character, in ONE agreed angled-front view on 32×32 transparent cells, in this demonstrated style. The agreed appearance can use a different simple helmet/jersey palette and original small details. Deliverables: eight individual PNG frames, a 256×32 horizontal PNG sprite sheet, a looping GIF preview, timing/frame-coordinate JSON, the editable local Python pixel-generation source and brief usage notes. Default timing is 100ms per frame; one fixed timing is agreed before production. A repeated passing pose is acceptable and disclosed; eight entirely distinct poses would require a different offer.
Excluded: the remaining seven actions or 120-frame batch, additional characters/directions, throwing/tackling/ball physics, music, game code, engine import/device testing, exact imitation of third-party or unseen existing artwork, Aseprite/PSD files, and ongoing production. The offered milestone is a usable first character action; you would need to confirm that its format and style are suitable for your engine. We can discuss a later batch only under a separately agreed and reviewed offer.
Five working days after written scope/style/format/rights/AI agreement, authorised inputs and full EUR95 advance credited and available in our existing Eurobank EUR receiving account, including our QA and final internal review. Please cover sending/intermediary fees so EUR95 arrives. No payment is requested now; bank instructions would be shared privately only after agreement. Transfer delays, compliance holds, recall or reversal remain possible. A screenshot does not establish available funds. There are no extra tool charges, paid assets or new spending, and no discount or expanded scope is offered.
One consolidated minor palette/detail or small pose correction within the agreed action, character and view is included. Seven calendar days of export-defect correction follow delivery. A new action/view/style/canvas or material redesign needs a new quote. Before work, we agree the simple original character, palette, exact loop poses/timing, 32×32 cells, padding/anchor, format and acceptance checks. QA covers conformity to this agreement, a recognisable and consistent player/ball silhouette, visual inspection of every frame and cycle transition, fixed cells/anchor, non-clipped binary alpha, decoded PNGs, frame-to-sheet reconciliation and actual GIF timing. This is a small stylised run-in-place; no realistic athletic motion or engine integration is promised. In-scope defects will be corrected.
Commercial game and promotional use and editing are permitted to the extent of our rights. AI-assisted output may not be unique or copyright-protectable. We offer no exclusive copyright, exclusivity or third-party legal-clearance guarantee. Your explicit agreement to this AI workflow and rights position is required before production. Please supply only rights-cleared non-sensitive original specifications.
Initially, please discuss only non-sensitive scope here and do not send private material. Before any private information reaches OpenAI Codex, we must agree the provider, permitted information (correspondence and limited sender/thread metadata, character/palette/animation specifications or rights-cleared references, and limited payment-confirmation metadata) and purposes (scoping, design, production, administration, funding verification and QA). Private continuation uses usefulmatterstudio@gmail.com only through a buyer-agreed route. We do not import private itch.io inbox/account information into external AI. Commissioned files will not be publicly posted or reused as portfolio material without permission. Completed work is reviewed internally before authorised delivery.
Would this limited first run-loop milestone in the demonstrated style be useful on these terms? This is a non-binding offer; no engagement starts before agreement and the stated conditions.
