About the Game
We’re developing a horror 4-player co-op game that blends the intensity of Left 4 Dead with the gritty atmosphere of Call of Duty: World at War Zombies. Our game challenges players with immersive, optimized environments that are as terrifying as they are detailed.
Position Overview
We’re looking for a talented Environment Artist to create every visual element—from expansive exteriors to intricate interiors—that will bring our haunting world to life. This role will involve designing, developing, and optimizing environments in Unreal Engine, ensuring smooth performance for our 4-player co-op experience.
Key Responsibilities
Environment Creation: Build detailed and atmospheric environments that support both exterior and interior gameplay scenarios.
Optimization: Ensure all assets are optimized for performance, leveraging modern technologies like Procedural Content Generation (PCG) and Nanite.
Collaboration: Work remotely while actively participating in team meetings and discussions via Zoom, Discord, and other messaging platforms. Your opinions will help shape the direction of our visual storytelling.
Innovation: Bring fresh ideas and a willingness to learn. We value skill and passion over formal experience, so if you can demonstrate a strong grasp of creating optimized game environments, we want to hear from you.
Qualifications
Proficiency with Unreal Engine. Demonstrated understanding of environment design and asset optimization.
Experience (or a strong portfolio) showcasing environments optimized for performance. Familiarity with technologies such as PCG and Nanite is a plus.
Excellent communication skills and the ability to work collaboratively in a remote setting. Passion for horror and co-op gaming.
Location & Work Arrangement
This is a full-time, remote position. Preference will be given to candidates based in or near Edmonton, as local collaboration is a plus.
What We Offer
A salary range of $50,000 – $60,000 annually. An opportunity to join a growing team where your ideas and skills will have a significant impact.
Freedom to explore and grow into new roles as the project develops. A collaborative, open-minded environment where all opinions are valued.
If you’re ready to help create a world that will terrify and captivate players, we’d love to see your work. Please submit your resume, portfolio, and a brief introduction about yourself and your approach to environmental art.
