We're seeking an individual who can help us continue to break boundaries, lead by example, and deliver on our promise to players.
As a 3C gameplay designer you're responsible for the 'feel' of the game, for that secret sauce that just makes it impossible for the player to put the game down. Your expertise in designing and fine-tuning character movement, camera behavior, and control systems will be crucial in creating responsive, intuitive, and enjoyable player interactions. You know what it takes to make the player feel confident in not only understanding the controls, but also master and improve them to further increase their skill-level in the game. You will collaborate closely with multidisciplinary teams including level designers, Ai designers, artists, programmers, and narrative designers to ensure a cohesive and engaging gameplay experience.
What you will do
- Develop and iterate on 3C mechanics to create fluid, ultra-responsive, and satisfying player control inputs and interactions.
- Create and maintain design documentation that outlines 3C mechanics, controls, and gameplay systems for the development team to reference.
- Prove 3C mechanics through prototyping and playtesting, and balance them to ensure a harmonious player experience throughout different levels and scenarios.
- Work closely with programmers to implement and fine-tune 3C mechanics, offering clear design intent and addressing technical limitations.
- Collaborate with artists to ensure that character animations and visual effects synergize with the gameplay mechanics to convey a cohesive and polished experience.
- Stay current with industry trends and advancements in game design, especially in the realm of 3C mechanics, and apply this knowledge to enhance the project's quality.
Who you are- Proven experience as a Gameplay Designer with a portfolio showcasing your contributions to successful game projects, with a strong emphasis on 3C mechanics.
- Proficiency in game design tools, scripting languages, and game engines (such as Unreal Engine).
- An analytical mindset that can deconstruct player motivations and translate those to game features and mechanics.
- Solid understanding of player psychology, interaction design, and user-centered design principles.
- Passion for shooters and a keen interest in staying updated with industry trends and emerging technologies.
