Game Designer (3C)
Job Description
As a Game Designer at Ubi MTL, you will be the creative energy behind a specific set of game systems and mechanics. You provide players with tools to build unique gameplay experiences and opportunities to make meaningful choices.
You go through an iterative, hands-on process of adjusting and balancing your design as you bring it from concept to playability.
Throughout production, you shift your focus from the big picture to the micro details; tackling hurdles in development and stepping back to asses how all the pieces connect and affect each other.
You tweak and tune until it finally happens : a smooth and engaging player experience emerges.
What you’ll do
- Drive and own the design of AAA quality 3C (character, controls and camera) gameplay features from conception through final product.
- Create new systems and features while balancing and tweaking existing ones.
- Collaborate with cross-functional teams to integrate your assigned features.
- Develop in-engine prototypes .
- Adapt to technical and production constraints, reworking your design when and as often as needed.
- Create and maintain design documentation that will guide interdependent teams.
Qualifications
What you bring
- Experience in video game production. It would be ideal if you had experience with single-player 3rd person action adventure games.
- An ability to recognize great game feel and how to manifest player fantasy into gameplay mechanics.
- Experience with game engines (e.g. Unity or Unreal) and productivity software (word processors, spreadsheets, etc.)
- An innovative, empathetic, and collaborative spirit
- Exceptional communication, interpersonal, and presentation skills (you’re able to clearly explain your thought process on paper and in person)
- Critical thinking, curiosity, resourcefulness, and plenty of flexibility
- A solid understanding of the market and a passion for video games you play enough to know what makes quality gameplay!
What to send our way
- Your CV highlighting your education, experience, and skills
- Samples of your work (attach files or send us a link to your demo reel or online portfolio)
Just a heads up : If you require a work permit, your eligibility may depend on your education and years of relevant work experience, as required by the government.
