Game Artist & Animator Intern

About this Role

Games live or die by their visual feel, and behind every great game is a great artist. You'll create character sprites, tilesets, UI elements, and frame-by-frame animations that make our games look polished and distinctive. You'll work hand-in-hand with developers to deliver assets in the exact format and structure that Unity needs — right dimensions, correct pivot points, clean spritesheets. Your work will reach thousands of players, and they'll feel your effort even if they don't know your name.

What You'll Do

• Design 2D character sprites, enemies, and environmental assets in Aseprite or Illustrator
• Create frame-by-frame animations — idle, walk, run, attack, and death cycles
• Build tileset sheets for level design that tile seamlessly in Unity
• Design UI assets — HUDs, buttons, icons, and loading screens — in game-ready formats
• Export spritesheets with correct dimensions and padding for Unity Sprite Editor
• Maintain a consistent art style across all assets in a single project
• Iterate rapidly based on developer and lead feedback during integration

What We're Looking For

• Proficiency in Aseprite, Adobe Animate, or Illustrator for 2D art and animation
• Understanding of sprite animation principles (squash/stretch, anticipation, follow-through)
• Basic familiarity with how game engines use sprite atlases and animation frames
• Ability to work within a defined art style rather than always creating your own
• A portfolio of original 2D game art or animation work
