We are a startup on a mission to create transformative entertainment experiences that are intentional about what they teach kids and teens. We are building a live service Multiplayer Sandbox game where players develop mathematical reasoning and creative problem solving skills. Think of a Lego meets Minecraft meets Scratch. We are not after the “traditional” educational games, we are re-imagining the future of games and learning - Jonathan Blow said it better than we ever could. Today, we are playtesting and iterating on an early version of our game, focusing on improving the player experience, and deepening our core systems and mechanics. We’re well funded, and our investors include Carina Initiatives, Riot Games and Dune Ventures.
We’re looking for a part-time or freelance UI/UX designer with strong graphic design skills and a passion for user experience. In this role, you will work with our team to simplify and communicate game mechanics and features to our young audience.
