Video Game Content Designer, Contract, Part-Time

This is a fully remote position, open to applicants in United Kingdom.

📋 Description

• You will create content for Soulbound utilizing the most innovative content creation systems within the indie MMO sector.

• Our tools enable you to design quests in mere seconds that become visible in the game in real time.

• In your initial days, you'll be generating content instead of making coffees.

• Conceptualize and develop quests, encounters, and narrative content using our exclusive systems.

• Suggest content ideas and present them to the leadership team.

• Obtain direct feedback from the creative director and other leaders.

• Quickly iterate — our systems update in real time, allowing you to see your contributions live immediately.

• Gain experience in writing proposals and professionally presenting ideas.

⛳️ Requirements

• A portfolio showcasing creative work — games, mods, campaigns, events, writing, art, or any evidence of your ability to create and deliver.

• A true enthusiasm for gaming — especially RPGs, MMORPGs, indie games, and top-down/pixel art games.

• A strong academic background or proven critical thinking skills — university students, recent graduates, or postgraduates are preferred, but not mandatory if you can demonstrate your capabilities.

• Self-driven and proactive — you don't wait for instructions.

• Resilient — you can handle direct, sometimes harsh feedback and use it as a tool for improvement.

• Willing to commit significant hours — this role requires more than just a weekly check-in.

• **Nice to Have:**

• Experience with game design tools (any engine, modding tools, or level editors).

• Understanding of pixel art or top-down game aesthetics.

• Experience managing D&D campaigns, tabletop RPGs, or organizing gaming events.

• Familiarity with game design principles (progression, quest design, encounter design, narrative).

🏝️ Benefits

• Develop a genuine portfolio on a live game with over 1 million players.

• Direct access to the studio founder and creative leadership.

• Learn professional game design processes — proposals, pitches, iteration.

• Work with state-of-the-art content creation tools and agents.

• Flexible hours — accommodate your studies or other responsibilities.

• Remote work — operate from anywhere.

• A real opportunity for continued roles for exceptional performers.

• Join a small, agile indie studio where your work is released and seen by players.
