Job Description
Overview
PRELOADED is seeking a Lead Designer to own the design detail and champion the player experience for a large-scale multiplayer location-based mini-game suite experience. The ideal candidate will be a generalist with strong experience in both UX / UI and game design and be comfortable with rapid prototyping based on specific hypotheses.
We are an equal-opportunity employer and welcome applicants from all backgrounds.
Due to the unique nature of this project, this role requires on-site, at least 2 days a week at our London Studio.
Key Responsibilities
- Own and document all aspects of UX and Game Design (core loops, mechanics, progression, systems, UX, narrative, level design).
- Ensure creative intent is realised throughout development.
- Work directly in-engine to implement, balance, and iterate.
- Be responsible for planning play testing and making observations on play testing to inform iteration.
- Collaborate closely with cross-functional teams (art, engineering, production).
- Clearly communicate design vision and documentation to internal and external stakeholders.
What We’re Looking For
- Proven experience as a Game Designer operating as the only designer in a multi-disciplinary team.
- Strong UX / UI design ability, someone who can plan user flows, create wires and prototype the intended design in Figma / XD.
- Someone who is able to plan and write testable content for a quiz-like experience (think Jackbox).
- Someone who is focused on designing for the target audience.
- Broad generalist game design skills across various genres and design aspects.
- Technical capability to work directly in-engine.
- Excellent communication, presentation, and collaboration skills.
Nice to Have
- Experience designing location-based social multiplayer games.
- Experience designing simple, streamlined mobile games / experiences.
