This is an extensive list of open positions at the moment. The bottom of this blog will have a section on how to apply to these positions.

We're looking for a talented and seasoned pixel artist to make sprites to help our players feel more connected to the game they love.

Requirements

• At least 2 years of experience with pixel art that matches or exceeds our quality
• At least 1 year of professional experience with pixel art or similar art styles
• The ability to create pixel art for the application process with a pre-determined prompt (that we will not retain the rights to, it's not free work!)

Nice to Have

• Experience with Dank Memer, or Discord bots in general
• Experience creating art specifically for games

Job Duties

You will work with multiple other pixel artists to create a cohesive art style in a timely manner. The development team will list needed assets with any extra details about the sprites and you will work on individual sprites from the list and deliver to the development team to be implemented.

You will fully design the art, upload it to 1-2 places (file storage and sometimes as a Discord emoji), and then notify the team that it is ready.

Art is generally 32x32 style but occasionally going higher resolution for more detailed projects.

Hours & Pay

This job's workload is heavily dependent on what's being actively developed within the game. Some months we might have a full list of assets to work from, some months we might only have a couple.

On average, our pixel artists will see 4-10 hours of work weekly if they are efficiently creating the required assets.

For this position we are looking to pay $18 to $22 per hour depending on your skill level and qualifications.
