Job Technologies
Your role in the team
- Take end-to-end ownership of UI for features and live ops content: wireframes, mock-ups, user flows, prototypes, original icons and illustrations, final visuals, and in-engine implementation.
- Create polished, on-brand UI art from scratch: icons, illustrations, banners, offer images, event key art, and other custom visual assets that make screens feel premium and lovingly handcrafted.
- Work closely with our sister game Sunshine Island: understand their UI designs and underlying intent, adapt them to BFH's audience and visual language, and share learnings back with the SI team.
- Integrate UI into Unity yourself - building and wiring prefabs, anchors, layouts, responsive scaling - in close cooperation with programmers and tech artists.
- Bring UI to life with animation in Unity (Timeline, DOTween, Animator) to create polished transitions, feedback and juice.
- Maintain and extend our UI design system - including the icon and illustration library - to keep visual and interaction consistency across the product.
- Apply UI/UX best practices for mobile devices and advocate for the player across the team.
- Collaborate closely with game design, art, balancing, QA, and engineering - challenge UX where it can be improved, and unblock others when UI is the bottleneck.
- Keep an eye on the latest tooling (including AI-assisted workflows) and bring improvements back to our processes.
