Description

• Design core systems in a new Survival Arcade-style game. • Create proposals that articulate how features and systems uphold the game’s design pillars and drive player behaviors. • Implement and own features from proposal to polish, creating visibility and buy-in from partner teams. • Support team members through your expertise for consistent design targets. • Grow your expertise in opportunity spaces to advance collective knowledge. • Cultivate your personal design philosophy that aligns with Fortis’ approach and think about emerging patterns.

Requirements

• An expertise in mobile game development, specifically in the arcade survival genre. • The ability to take game-defining designs from proposal to polish. • A holistic view of game systems and the downstream effects of all design decisions throughout both the product and player lifecycle. • A firm understanding of fundamental design principles, metagame systems, game economies, and player psychology that allows you to design from first principles. • Ability to articulate the nuances of abstract concepts and how they apply to complex, interrelated systems. • Ability to synthesize feedback from team members, user playtests, and other validation efforts into product insights and rapidly iterate on designs. • Extensive knowledge of games as a service and live operations – you know what good looks like and can build efficient design processes, workflows, and tooling to enable it. • A natural curiosity and eagerness to learn - we believe this is essential to our ability to stay ahead of the market and value this over years of experience.
