REVSHARE MODEL: 2D / UI Artist
Job description:
Arkblade is an independent game studio focused on creating story-driven, emotionally impactful experiences. We are currently looking for a talented
2D / UI Artist
to join our team under a
revenue-share model
. This is a remote collaboration role where creativity, communication, and passion matter more than formalities. You will help define the player's primary interface, building the corrupted, low-fidelity visuals that bring our psychological horror to life.
Responsibilities
:
* Design and create all in-game 2D UI elements, including the crucial Phone App screens (Battery, Messaging).
* Develop promotional art and key visuals that align with the project's unique tone.
* Collaborate with the Director and Artists to implement aesthetic filters and visual corruption effects (e.g., VHS glitches, scanlines).
* Ensure visual consistency and optimal readability within the strict
PS1 Low-Poly
and
High-Contrast
style.
* Contribute ideas for visual storytelling and narrative integration through the interface.
* Participate in reviews and iterate based on feedback.
Requeriments
:
* Portfolio showcasing strong 2D art and User Interface (UI) design work.
* Proficiency with Photoshop, Illustrator, or similar industry-standard 2D design tools.
* Experience or strong understanding of how 2D assets integrate into game engines like
Unity
.
* Proven ability to work within strict aesthetic constraints, particularly
PS1 Low-Poly
and
VHS/Analog Horror
.
* Understanding of composition and visual hierarchy in confined spaces.
* Good communication and teamwork skills.
* Passion for indie games and creative collaboration.
Bonus points:
* Experience designing
diegetic UI
(interfaces that exist within the game world).
* Familiarity with visual corruption, glitch, or
Analog Horror
effects.
* Love for cinematic visuals or narrative games.
What we offer:
* Revenue-share model:
transparent and fair distribution via a Contributor Pool once the game is monetized.
* Full creative input in shaping the look and feel of the player interface.
* A relaxed and passionate international team.
* The chance to leave a personal mark on an original IP.
If you love building corrupted interfaces and defining a project's visual identity, we would love to hear from you. And remember, this is a rev-share model.
