Glowmade is an exciting independent company based in Guildford, UK. We make games that unlock imagination and expression. We’re currently working on King of Meat, our new multiplayer cooperative game, wrapped in a humorous, dungeon-style world.
This is an opportunity to play a pivotal role in our expanding team. Reporting to our Art Lead, you’ll work closely with the team to research, generate ideas, and iterate on designs for characters, environments, weapons, vending machines, gumball traps, wipe-clean shield covers, and other items you find in dark corners.
From day one we would like you to…
* Jump enthusiastically into understanding what the game is and get to know its creative and artistic direction.
* Master your knowledge on every aspect of the game, including player costumes, weapons, props, environments and game mechanics present in the game.
* Be able to generate creative and fun ideas that are in tone with the humour and style of the game.
* Be a team player — always ready to receive and give constructive feedback to other members of the Art Team and beyond.
In six months you will be…
* A central member of the Art Team, contributing visuals in all aspects of the games we produce. This will include visualising large environments, decorative and functional props, VFX exploration, and marketing materials, expanding the direction from the Art Director and Lead Artist.
* Visualize and produce gameplay-focused assets, following technical requirements and working with the Game Design team.
* Support and mentor other concept artists, being a role model for the rest of the team.
* Contribute to the development of 3D assets with proactive and constructive feedback.
* Be hands-on with outsourcing vendors, supporting production with feedback and guidance.

The ideal candidate would…
* Have a hungry imagination!
* Have experience designing complex architectural structures like buildings, large open spaces and enclosed environments.

* Have experience mentoring other artists, guiding them with hands-on feedback and sharing pipeline tips.
* Experience working with external outsourcing vendors.
* Strong communication skills and understanding of various art disciplines.
* Be able to work within a high-speed production environment, being accountable for their tasks and respecting deadlines.
