[PAID] Steam Capsule Artist Needed, $500 Budget

Looking for an artist experienced with Steam capsule/key art for an upcoming indie game currently in active development with a playable Steam playtest ready to go once our store page is up and running.

Primary use is Steam capsule art, but assets will also be used for Kickstarter/social marketing.

Game Theme / Tone:
- Darkly comedic
- Financial collapse / debt / desperation themes
- Stylized prison setting
- Satirical, oppressive, slightly absurd
- Tone inspiration somewhere between:
- Prison Architect
- Papers, Please
- Repo/collections culture
- Late-stage capitalism satire

Visual Goals:
- Strong readability at small Steam thumbnail sizes
- Memorable logo/title treatment
- Eye-catching contrast
- Stylized characters/environment preferred over realism
- Needs to immediately communicate “prison/debt/punishment”

Deliverables:
- Main capsule
- Small capsule
- Library capsule
- Logo/title treatment
- Source files preferred (PSD/Krita/etc)

Current Status:
- Steam app exists
- Playtest nearly live. Currently blocked on final Steam capsule assets (that’s where you come in)
- CI/CD + Steam deployment already functioning
- Playable build available

Budget:
~$500 USD (flexible for the right fit/scope)

Please send:
- Portfolio
- Steam capsule examples if available
- Estimated pricing/rates
- Preferred contact method
