Middle+ 2D Artist Generalist

Astro Cat Studio seeks a Middle+ 2D Artist Generalist for R&D to develop visual direction, create 2D art and UI, and work with AI tools. Full-time, fully remote, global.

Studio Astro Cat (SpongeBob: Krusty Cook-Off, Startrek Timelimes, Oregon, Narcos, etc.) is looking for a Middle+ 2D Artist Generalist for the R&D department. If you love experimenting with styles, fine-tuning AI, and want to create new games from scratch while developing art direction skills, working directly with the Art Director — this is for you! Responsibilities: • Searching for visual direction: references, moodboards, style tests, and concepts. • Designing and drawing game interfaces. • Creating game 2D art manually and with AI: characters, environments, objects, and other assets while maintaining a consistent style. • Preparing graphics for integration, checking results in the game, and making quick iterations based on feedback.

• Commercial experience in the gaming industry from 3 years (portfolio required). • Experience creating the visual part of games from scratch: from style search to game assets and interfaces. • Strong artistic foundation: composition, color, light, shape, and stylization. • Ability to independently develop UI and understand basic game UX principles. • Skills in searching for and developing art direction under the guidance of an art director. • Confident proficiency in Photoshop, Figma, and AI generation tools. • A big plus is proficiency in Spine 2D.

• Full-time (official employment, vacation + sick leave). • Remote work from anywhere in the world. • Internet compensation. • Flexible payment options. • A team with experience working with global IPs.
