2D Game Artist

ABOUT THE ROLE

We are looking for a Game Artist to join us in creating premium casual mobile games.

You own the 2D art pipeline. Working from an Art Director-defined Style Guide and Game Feel Bible, you translate approved specs into production-ready assets across items, UI, and visual effects. The Art Director is the visual authority. Your job is to execute within the established system at a high level of craft and consistency.

Job type: Remote (Full-time)

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Produce all items and character art: clean, readable at small mobile screen sizes, consistent with the style guide
• Deliver full UI asset production across core screens. Pixel-perfect, mobile-optimized, ready for Unity integration
• Support VFX asset creation in close collaboration with the VFX/Animation Programmer. Particle textures, sprite sheets, screen effect elements
• Maintain a structured asset library that integrates cleanly with the generative artist's placeholder pipeline
• Iterate on assets based on playtest feedback, prioritize what players respond to, not what looks best in isolation
• Communicate proactively with the Art Director on spec ambiguities before starting production

REQUIRED SKILLS

• 4+ years of production 2D game art with at least one shipped mobile or F2P title
• Strong static illustration and item/character design. Clean shapes, strong silhouettes, readable at small sizes
• UI/UX art execution. Complete screen composition, icon design, and asset slicing for Unity
• VFX support capability. Able to produce sprite sheets and particle texture atlases
• Proficient in Photoshop or Procreate with experience exporting production-ready assets for Unity
• Ability to execute faithfully within a defined style guide; consistency of output is non-negotiable

PREFERRED SKILLS

• VFX animation experience: Frame-by-frame or Spine/SkeletonData is a strong differentiator
• Familiarity with casual mobile game visual language: Cozy aesthetic, satisfying item design, bright palettes
• Experience working alongside AI-assisted generative art pipelines

TEAM FIT

• English proficiency is a non-negotiable
• Is in UTC +1 to UTC +3 Time zones
• Accepts Art Director as the visual authority. All asset specs approved before production begins
• Comfortable operating within scope constraints and production priorities set by the PM
