  • Liaise with artists, animators and programmers to create compelling content.
  • Develop and maintain design documentation that clearly details the goals and processes of the content as well as communicating asset requirements from other departments.
QUALIFICATIONS

  • A Game Design, Computer Science or any Creative degree is considered an advantage. However, relevant experience is taken into consideration.
  • 2+ years of proven dedication to game design/scripting in a team environment.
SKILLS
