Hi there! We’re Qloud Games, an Australian-headquartered, fully-remote indie studio with team members hailing from around the globe.

We’re the developers of Loftia: a cozy, solarpunk life-sim MMO that blends the creative and cozy elements of titles like Animal Crossing and Stardew Valley, together with a social and online world with thousands of other players. We ran a US$1.3m Kickstarter campaign in 2023, have an online community of 700,000 followers on social media, and over 60,000 excited players in our Discord. For more information about the game, check out our Kickstarter page and Steam page.

Loftia is entering Early Access in just a few months’ time, and we are looking for a Trailer Editor & Capture Artist to join our team and work together with existing team members to produce our final gameplay trailers that will showcase Loftia’s launch to the world!

This role will start as a short-term contract (2 months) with potential to transition into a more permanent role.

• Strong visual storytelling skills
• Strong sense of visual acuity, and a deep intrinsic understanding of what constitutes high quality, polished and aesthetic assets
• Production and project management skills, with the ability to oversee the trailer creation process from end-to-end

Role Details

• Engagement type: Full-time
• Contract type: 2-month contract to start, with potential for extension or transition to a more permanent arrangement down the line
