Table Knight Games is looking for UI Artist to support us in the development of UnderMire, our recently announced co-op roguelite adventure. UnderMire is set in an exciting new world rich with adventure, danger, and playfulness, and an ambience of teen-friendly thrills and spookiness.
UnderMire is being developed in Unity with a small fully remote team across North and South America, Europe, and the Middle East.

We’re looking for someone to help us define and implement the UI art direction for the game. Our art direction takes inspiration from Saturday morning cartoons and comic books, with a bold and stylized look which blends 2D and 3D art.
By working closely with our Art Director, you’ll put your creative stamp onto the UI by creating a style guide which defines our UI art style, iconography, UI animation style, and more. You’ll also collaborate with the Game Director to ensure that usability and signs and feedback are strongly considered. Then you’ll go into a hands-on phase to create and animate core assets for our HUD and menus, and work with our team to directly integrate them into Unity.
Work will be contracted and delivered for our next major production milestone, due in the coming months. This is not a full time role. You can use any software package you like to produce the style guide and assets, provided you have the appropriate licence for its usage. Experience with Unity and GitHub source control software is a huge bonus for this role due to the integration requirements.
Work will be tracked using a detailed production spreadsheet, and we can discuss technical topics like performance and our use of third party packages to ensure your work is compatible with our pipeline and target platforms.
We will keep in close communication using Discord for discussions, meetings, and questions. As well as providing you with access to our source control software we can provide you with regular builds of the game on Steam to play and review your work.

UnderMire is a 1-4 player first person co-op roguelite adventure where you descend into a magical, ever-changing bunker to confront the dark forces that lie within. Battle fear-fueled monsters, SMUSH everyday junk into magical weapons, master evolving tools, complete tasks from a cantankerous spirit cat, and survive the chaos alone or with your friends using proximity voice chat.
