We are looking for passionate game developers to join us on this journey. This role is unpaid until funded, but it’s a unique opportunity to be part of something from the ground up, contribute creatively, and grow alongside an emerging indie studio.

• Collaborate with designers, artists, and animators to integrate assets and refine mechanics.
• Optimize game performance for mobile platforms.
• Debug and troubleshoot issues to ensure a polished player experience.
