PlayDeck is one of the fastest-growing gaming platforms on Telegram, with over 5 million users. Our platform offers a one-of-a-kind experience where users can discover unique games, compete, and win prizes—all without leaving Telegram. We bring fun, unique games right into the Telegram app, where players can compete and win prizes.
We're looking for a 2D Artist to help us bring a casual game to life with vibrant characters, fun effects, and engaging environments — part-time, freelance, or outsource.
Responsibilities:
- Collaborate on developing the visual style of the project — casual 2D graphics inspired by Bowmasters (bright color palette, simple shapes, humorous characters).
- Create 2D character illustrations and prepare them for animation (layer separation, etc.).
- Design 2D visual effects (e.g. explosions) and basic animations for characters and effects when needed.
- Produce background and environment art consistent with the established visual style.
Requirements:
- A relevant portfolio featuring 2D characters and environments in a casual style.
- Strong skills in casual art (vibrant, cartoonish designs).
- Ability to create content based on existing artwork with minimal revisions.
- Solid understanding of color theory and composition.
- Willingness to integrate AI-based tools into the workflow.
- Proficiency in Adobe Photoshop or equivalent graphic software; basic UI design experience is a plus.
- A collaborative mindset, strong attention to detail, and a proactive approach.
Why it is a fantastic opportunity:
- Our business is growing at an exponential scale.
- Non-bureaucratic management that focuses on results.
- Regular performance reviews to assess your progress.
- Remote setup with access to our hubs in Dubai, Yerevan, London and Belgrade.
The Open Platform is an equal opportunity employer.
