Mini Pepper Games is a fully remote independent game studio focused on making games that are small but packed full of flavor. We currently have team members in the US, Italy, France, and Brazil, but we're open to expanding that list for the right candidate. We're working on an unannounced cute, nonviolent, 3D exploration platformer for PC about witches.
You'll be tasked with turning concept art into textured 3D models. You should be comfortable with hard surface modeling, environment art, and simple character modeling. The general style involves simplified, cute forms in a lightly painterly style with strong colors. Animal Crossing is a good example of the level of detail and stylization.
An ideal candidate has a strong understanding of low poly modeling and can handle texture painting and rig-ready topology. Most of the work will likely be environment art, but you should be capable of character modeling, as well. If you're capable of rigging and animating, that's a nice bonus, but we expect to hire separately for those skills. Experience with 2D painting is a plus.
The position is on a contract basis. The hours are completely flexible; we don't have core hours or a company time zone. The contract is expected to be medium term, on the order of months.
Applications are now closed.
