Company:

BLOXNEO is an indie game development studio based out of India, composed of passionate developers, artists, designers, and gamers. Our goal is to create engaging, high-quality games that captivate audiences worldwide.

Join our founding team as a Concept Artist and be instrumental in shaping our upcoming Action-Adventure Game set in India.

Position:

Are you passionate about creating captivating worlds through concept art? Do you want to work in a dynamic, creative environment where your artistic vision will shape the core of an upcoming game? As a Concept Artist with BLOXNEO, you'll work under the guidance of the Senior 3D Artist and Art Director, playing a crucial role in defining the look and feel of our projects.

Responsibilities:

• Concept Art Development: Collaborate closely with the creative and design teams to create visually striking concept art for characters, environments, and key assets.
• Map and Game Flow Design: Design map layouts and contribute to the overall game flow and spatial planning.
• Visual Design Creation: Bring the game's narrative and setting to life with stunning visual designs, including UI/UX concepts and elements.
• Cross-Team Collaboration: Ensure visual consistency across the project by collaborating with developers, designers, and other artists.
• Concept Iteration: Continuously refine visual concepts based on feedback.

• Artistic Identity Contribution: Help establish and evolve BLOXNEO's unique artistic identity.

Qualifications:

Salary and Compensation:

This role is unpaid for the first few months (~6 months) while we secure funding.

However, you will be eligible for ESOPs (Employee Stock Ownership Plan) as part of our founding team. The cliff period for ESOPs will begin during the unpaid phase, ensuring your time and commitment are recognized from the start. This is an opportunity to become a shareholder in BLOXNEO, joining as a founding member with a vested interest in the company’s success.

Once we complete the game's first Demo Version or Reveal Trailer, we will transition to fundraising. Following this, founding members will move to contractual agreements with competitive salaries and a signing bonus that acknowledges the work done during the unpaid period.

Furthermore, the compensation structure will include performance-based bonuses tied directly to the game's financial success. Upon the game's release, a portion of the revenue will be shared with the founding team, allowing you to directly benefit from the game's achievements.

By offering ESOPs and revenue sharing, we foster a sense of ownership, ensuring that each member of the team is deeply invested in BLOXNEO's success.
