Senior 2D Artist

About Us
We are building a new mobile game studio from scratch, focused on the hybrid Tower Defense / Roguelike genre.
Our goal is to create and scale mobile games driven by strong visual design, fast prototyping, and idea validation — not by long, data-less production cycles.

A key feature of the studio is an accelerated development process powered by deep automation and a proprietary internal template that allows us to:

• rapidly assemble game prototypes;
• quickly test visual styles and UI solutions;
• scale content without losing stylistic consistency.

The studio is composed exclusively of senior specialists and operates in a fast, flexible environment:

• minimal bureaucracy;
• maximum ownership and impact;
• strong focus on prototypes, iteration, and scaling.

The studio lead has 9+ years of experience in the game industry and long-term collaboration with mobile publishers.
 

👥 Team

The core team consists of three key roles:

• Unity Developer
• Game Designer
• Artist

Each team member has a clear area of responsibility. Visual decisions are created in close collaboration with the Game Designer and Unity Developer.
 

🎯 Role — Senior 2D Artist (UI/UX & Generalist)

We are looking for a senior-level 2D artist (4+ years of experience) who will own the entire visual layer of the game.

This is a hands-on generalist artist role with a strong focus on UI/UX for mobile games.
You will shape the visual style of prototypes, design UI, create characters, icons, and backgrounds, and work closely with the team on iterative implementation.
 

🧠 Responsibilities

• Defining and evolving the game’s visual style
• Designing and drawing UI/UX for mobile games
• Creating UI elements: buttons, panels, cards, HUD, icons
• Drawing characters, enemies, and bosses
• Creating stylized mobile-friendly level backgrounds
• Preparing and delivering assets for Unity integration
• Close collaboration with the Game Designer and Unity Developer
• Participating in iterations and improving visual solutions based on test results
• Maintaining visual consistency and quality across the product
   

✅ Requirements (Must-have)

• 4+ years of commercial experience as a 2D Artist in mobile games
• Strong expertise in UI/UX and mobile visual hierarchy
• Generalist skill set: UI, characters, icons, backgrounds
• Experience creating a game’s visual concept from scratch
• Excellent sense of color, composition, and style
• Understanding of mobile-specific constraints (readability, simplicity, scale)
• Active use of AI tools to accelerate work:
  • quick sketches, variations, concepts;
  • conscious quality–speed trade-offs during prototyping
• Ability to unify, refine, and polish AI-generated results
• Ability to work autonomously and take full ownership of outcomes
• Experience working in small teams
