where do you find your temp art

CiNiMoD

So I have a project that I want to share with you guys, but I literally have no art :P My art is made up of a single circle and some different color blocks for different terrains :/

What do you guys do for placeholder / temporary art for alpha versions?

FanieG

post it as is.

Just post your game with the blocks and circles. We all get that it's an Alpha and you're more interested in gameplay feedback.

You can also always look at http://opengameart.org/ creative commons art for games.

But post first!

@CiNiMoD, I usually use the default shapes that come along with unity. So cubes/spheres and other stuff that's fairly quickly to create. I've also used stuff from opengameart to learn how to use sprites and stuff, but it didn't add to the gameplay of my games at all.

But like everyone said so far. Don't worry about how the game looks...the last thing you will hear here is how good/bad the game looks. You will get feedback on how it communicates through art, but that is not the same thing an is extremely helpful.

Nowadays I tend to suck it up and post with poor programmer art in an attempt to bait *real* artists to come in and fix my work. It's occasionally effective.
