A passion and understanding of how a players’ experience relates to game interfaces, graphic design, art, and animation.
Work with a variety of different team members at different stages of the project to get valuable feedback on the user experience.

What can also help you be successful in this role?
Avid player and knowledge of a variety of games.

Since our games are often stylized and PLAYFUL, having a strong 2D illustration background.
