2D Artist
The role involves creating high-quality 2D art for instant, slot, and crash games, including characters, symbols, backgrounds, environments, UI elements, props, and visual effects.
The successful candidate will develop visual concepts from initial sketches and mood boards through to final production-ready artwork. They will be responsible for designing complete asset packages that effectively communicate gameplay states, interactions, rewards, risks, and features. The role requires close collaboration with the Art Director and Game Producers to ensure visual quality and alignment with gameplay requirements.
Additionally, the artist will prepare layered PSD files and optimised assets for Spine animation and HTML5 (PixiJS, Cocos2d) integration, understanding asset optimisation and performance constraints. They will review artwork in-game, make necessary visual adjustments, maintain clean files, estimate tasks, and communicate production risks. The role also involves using AI-assisted tools such as Midjourney, Stable Diffusion, Adobe Firefly, or similar solutions for ideation, visual research, concept exploration, and production support.
