Game Designer / 2D Artist

We are looking for a Game Designer / 2D Artist on behalf of our client — an Israeli game development company creating hyper-casual mobile and casino-style games.

The company develops and tests multiple game concepts with a strong focus on speed, visual quality, player engagement, retention, and scalability. The technical side of development is already covered, and the team is now looking for a creative specialist who can take ownership of game visuals, animation, and overall visual polish.

Current projects include a Flappy Bird–style mobile game and a multiplayer Bingo game, with additional concepts planned for development and testing.

The ideal candidate is someone who can work quickly, turn rough concepts and AI-generated assets into polished game visuals, and maintain a consistent visual style across multiple projects.

• Create high-quality 2D game assets, characters, environments, icons, UI elements, and visual effects
• Create animations for characters, gameplay elements, interfaces, and transitions
• Turn concepts, sketches, references, and AI-generated assets into polished production-ready visuals
• Define and maintain a consistent visual style across different games
• Collaborate directly with the founder and developer on new game concepts
• Rapidly produce visual assets for prototypes, testing, and game releases
• Improve the overall visual quality, game feel, and player experience
• Prepare and optimize assets for mobile game development
• Adapt visuals based on player feedback, analytics, and testing results

Requirements

• Experience creating visuals for hyper-casual, casual mobile, casino, Bingo, or slot games
• Strong 2D art and animation skills
• Portfolio demonstrating relevant game artwork and animation
• Experience creating UI and visual elements for mobile games
• Ability to work quickly and manage several creative tasks at the same time
• Strong understanding of composition, color, visual hierarchy, and game feel
• Ability to transform unfinished or AI-generated assets into consistent, professional visuals
• Comfortable working independently and taking ownership of the creative process
• Proactive and able to suggest visual improvements
• English sufficient for regular communication with the client
