Game Assets For Open Source Games?

Posted by simoniker on from the nes-sprite-rips-not-counted dept.

Ron Harwood writes "As a developer of an open source game - and having zero artistic talent - I find one of the biggest challenges is finding graphics (and potentially sounds) that can be distributed freely. Are there any good repositories of game assets (tiles, sprites, 3D meshes, sounds, music, etc.) out there?"

    Don't give me "I can't draw" like you're proud of it or something.

    The last new programming language or algorythm you worked on took studying, right?

    visit Learn To Draw and surprise yourself!

    you might not end up with the mona lisa, but you'll finish up with something better than the nothing you have right now.

    When your game looks reasonable, there will be a better chance of attracting an "artist" to help you.
