Psst! We’re creating new magic, interested in joining us building a new world of adventures? This is a once in a lifetime opportunity for someone who wants to be a part of building a game from scratch.

We love horses and the community that has been built around the Star Stable Online universe, but we are ready to move out of our comfort zone into a new world of adventures…..without horses.

We are expanding our universe into a new product line and we’re looking for a Art Director to help us. As an Art Director you will get to work with the game from the beginning, and you will be responsible for creating the Art Bible and ensuring that the definition of a Visual Direction aligns with the high-level Creative Vision of the game. Amazing, right?

The quest

We have a vision of the new game, but we need more than that. So this is where we hope you will create some magic together with us. We need you to help us build a world and the characters within it, to manage the art process and make sure it is well defined and aligned with our development process. You will be the role model and decision maker for the art, and establish tools to allow artists to create the best assets possible.

Since we are at the very beginning of creating this game, we have no idea where this journey will take us, and therefore we don't know that much about the team or the specific roles. But what we do know is that this role probably will change during these years.

To be successful, you need to have an in-depth understanding of art production and processes. You do have experience from the games industry and have worked with the full cycle from prototyping to shipping a game. We do believe that you have been working as Art Director or Lead Artist before, knowing the importance of communication and feedback. You thrive in both setting vision and clarity as well as developing and creating. And of course you work well in an agile environment in a cross-functional team.

On this quest we'll explore new ways to tell stories, to empower creativity, and to foster human connection, in dialogue with real players. We're not making "just a game" but the "main game" for an underserved audience. Success means a community around the game that thrives for years to come.

The mission for the team

This new game is something totally different, so the team that builds it really needs to be daring and driven and have our values in their backpack. We know that we will try small and fail fast. We will be open to feedback and let our audience grow with us. And we do know that at this stage, perfection is the enemy of success.

To help you during this journey you will have a whole company with many years of experience and support functions and of course a dedicated team walking next to you.
