Hi everyone,

I’m nearing the end of development on a game I’ve been working on and nearly ready to release for Steam. I’m brand new to this process, but understand there is artwork to upload for what’s known as the Steam capsule.

I don’t want to do AI image generation. I’ve checked around Fiverr and it feels like a good chunk of the people there are either using AI for their finished results or not including everything I may need for the process and some have reviews stating they either took longer than advertised or didn’t provide everything as promised which are both concerning. Also, I’m unsure what is a fair price for this. The prices are widely ranged from $10 to $500, with different degrees of what’s included. Some of the higher end tiers don’t seem to include everything I might need from what I’ve read too, so I’m unsure on that too.

So I guess my three questions are:

  • What exactly is needed (just for the Steam capsule) to include when publishing my game on Steam?
  • What is a current fair price for someone doing this work?
  • What are some good places to go to get quality work done for this? Potentially somewhere that enforces rules and ensures payment/results are met for both parties in an escrow-type of way.
