Sneaky Sasquatch, one of Apple Arcade's most beloved original games, is a wholesome, open-world sandbox that has captured the hearts of millions of players across every age group. With a devoted fanbase and a universe full of untapped creative potential, Apple is building a team to carry Sneaky Sasquatch into its most ambitious and expansive chapter yet.
We are looking for a Sr. Game Artist whose style and sensibility are right at home in the world of Sneaky Sasquatch, and who takes pride in building great art. This is a hands-on, individual contributor role on a small, focused team with an indie spirit and the full backing of Apple. This is a rare opportunity to be one of just two artists shaping the entire visual world of the game, working directly alongside the original creators of Sneaky Sasquatch to bring new features and updates to life.
You'll help guide the visual direction of the game and create art directly, from early concepts to finished in-game assets. In doing so, you'll help define what it means for Apple to build games, and bring fresh ideas for the content and experiences that will delight players around the world.
As a Sr. Game Artist on the first party games team, you will act as a trusted extension of the creative vision for Sneaky Sasquatch, developing a deep understanding of what makes its world feel magical and consistent, and guiding art across the project to that standard. You'll be a hands-on contributor with 2D and 3D asset creation, from characters and vehicles to props and environments. You'll also carry that vision through paintover feedback, reviews, and clear creative input, whether the work is coming from an outsource partner, a collaborating studio, marketing and editorial, or your own hands.
An artistic style and sensibility that fits naturally with the tone of Sneaky Sasquatch, wholesome, charming, and full of personality.
Experience giving art direction or leading visual consistency across a team on a shipped project.
Concept art ability, helping visualize new ideas before they move into production.
Experience with character animation.
Experience optimizing assets to perform well across a range of platforms with different performance and feature capabilities.
7+ years of professional experience as a game artist, with deep comfort working in Adobe Illustrator producing 2D vector art, alongside strong 3D art fundamentals, and the artistic judgment to uphold visual direction and maintain consistency across a project, backed by a portfolio that demonstrates strong 2D vector illustration and 3D craft on shipped titles.
Strong communication and collaboration skills are essential, along with the initiative to move production forward independently.
