FyreFlight is a small UK indie studio. We shipped [Drunk Wizard Dungeoneer] on Steam to a positive reception, and we're now building Under the Flag, a hybrid 2D-3D tactical pirate roguelike with crew management, ship-to-ship combat, permadeath, and an event-driven story.
The role
We need a skilled pixel animator to build the motion foundation for our characters: a reusable, 8-directional animated base, think a proportion-locked "mannequin" or clean silhouette rig, that our in-house artists render final art on top of.
You're animating the motion and timing, as a template for our artists in house. We want to skin crew members and enemies over it. We have a fairly large animation list, so there's scope for ongoing work for the right fit.
