Frightmare Studios is a small remote indie studio creating a horror game. We are looking for a capable 3D character animator to bring the terrifying antagonists of our slasher horror game ‘COMING HOME’ to life!
COMING HOME is a retro FNAF-like slasher horror game, inspired by the horror classics of the 80s. Barricade your garage-turned-office, inspect your security system for intruders, and listen closely for what lurks in the dark – anything to keep the Sundown Rippers from claiming their next victim.

This is a paid freelance job. We tell you the work that needs to be done, and then negotiate a price and deadline for the work beforehand. We may have to make changes or additions to the required work later as the game develops. If that happens, we’ll quickly contact you about this and renegotiate the deal.
