  • Collaborate with design, engineering, and narrative leads to ensure visual direction supports gameplay, tone, and story.
  • Define style guides and maintain visual consistency across all aspects of the game.
  • Provide feedback and mentorship that empowers artists to do their best work.
  • Help scope and prioritize art needs to support development milestones.

 

Requirements

  • A strong portfolio demonstrating a distinct visual sensibility and art direction experience.
  • Proven ability to lead, mentor, and inspire multidisciplinary art teams.

Featured Game
s

Where Cards Fall is a slice of life puzzle game where you build houses of cards to bring formative memories to life. Create pathways through dreamlike spatial puzzles to navigate the insecurities and emotions of high school and beyond.

Blaseball is an absurdist, player-driven, corruptible, online game of baseball. It’s a simplistic simulation of a sport, built in the void of real sports, where players can view, bet on, and contort the league.
