2D Artist

Description

Who are we?

We are Carbonated and making mobile video games is our jam.  We’re based in a small but awesome town in West LA that’s only a 15 minute walk to the beach if you’re so inclined.  Our founders are veterans who’ve honed their craft over decades of industry experience including senior leadership roles at EA, Sony, Zynga & Blizzard. Currently we’re hard at work on Racing Rivals -- a high-risk/high-reward game for mid- to hardcore gamers.  Check it out to get a feel for the type of game experiences we like to make.

We’re looking for other driven and talented folks who love building games as much as we do.

Who are you?

Above all else, making games is your jam.  You love to concept, create, texture, and light, anything from basic models to user interface. We’re still growing, and we’re looking for a talented artist to grow with us. You’ll wear many hats along the way, perhaps even eventually a manager or mentor hat, but at the end of the day, you’re a doer, like us.
