Penalty Crash

We are Penalty Crash, a small studio creating casual mobile and web games. We are looking for a 2D artist who not only draws but also brings characters and objects to life in Spine.

Responsibilities:

• Create modern 2D designs for game screens, UI, characters, objects and effects.
• Prepare assets for animation (slicing, rigging, layers).
• Animate characters, objects and UI in Spine 2D (idle, win/lose, transitions, effects).
• Export animations for game engines and coordinate with developers.
• Keep a consistent project style and suggest your own ideas.

Requirements:

• 2+ years of experience in 2D game art (portfolio required).
• Strong Spine 2D skills (meshes, IK, skins, events).
• Photoshop / Illustrator / Figma or similar tools.
• Understanding of current casual game trends: clean, bright, "juicy" style.
• Attention to detail, independence, ability to meet deadlines.

Nice to have:

• Experience with After Effects and VFX for games.
• Understanding of Spine integration in Unity / Pixi.js / Cocos.
• Experience in small teams or freelancing.

We offer:

• Remote work and a flexible schedule.
• Full-time or project-based work, your choice.
• $500–$1000 per month, depending on level and workload.
• Interesting game projects with no bureaucracy and direct contact with the client.

Please include a link to your portfolio with Spine animation examples in your application.
