- Understanding of gameplay flow, pacing, and player guidance through visual design.
- Ability to work with modular assets and adapt to a stylized art direction.
- Passion for dark fantasy, Souls-like atmospheres, and immersive world design.
What You’ll Gain- Hands-on experience in an active Unreal Engine 5 project.
