Combat Designer (Senior+)
From dodgeball in the streets to racetracks in your living room, we've always been more interested in asking "what if?" than following a roadmap. Whether we're dreaming up a chaotic game of hide & seek in the dark or putting a legendary space fox back in the pilot's seat, that inventor's mindset runs through everything we do. We make games for people who appreciate craft and a little bit of magic. If you're curious, you'll be in good company.
Are you a designer who obsesses over player traversal, intuitive camera controls, and shooter-based combat? Do you have experience collaborating with VFX artists and animators to deliver responsive, engaging and intuitive combat mechanics? If so, we’d love to hear from you about helping us work on an exciting new third-person shooter concept.
