Vetted Game Designers

“UE5 gameplay scripter focused on shipping-quality, player-facing systems in Blueprints—recently built a pickup-and-throw mechanic end-to-end with animation/physics integration, robust edge-case handling, and QA/debug tooling. Emphasizes modular, data-driven architecture for designer-friendly tuning, and uses Unreal/Blueprint profiling plus event-driven patterns to keep systems performant and scalable.”

“Game designer specializing in multiplayer mode and systems design across casual party and vehicular hero-shooter projects (Oink Splash Party, Rivals Hover League), with hands-on UE5 Blueprint prototyping for a Souls-like combat loop (Medieval Silence). Known for playtest-driven iteration that fixes degenerate strategies and improves pacing/teamplay (e.g., core-meltdown, kill-confirmed/resurrection events, radar/minimap disruption), plus designing non-predatory progression systems blending battle pass, contracts, and level-up rewards.”

“Game economy/balancing designer who owned the economy for "Parliament" and rebuilt progression by introducing an active/passive ability system powered by an earn-and-spend currency. Uses spreadsheet-based TTK modeling plus telemetry KPIs and repeated playtests to tune difficulty, pacing, and scaling, and has experience aligning cross-functional teams around contentious economy/difficulty changes.”

Senior Unreal Engine Game Engineer specializing in real-time multiplayer gameplay systems

Remote, USA6y exp

“Unreal Engine generalist (7 years) with hands-on ownership of end-to-end gameplay systems in real-time 3D C++ and UE5, spanning technical level design, animation/locomotion features, and multiplayer replication. Worked on a shipped Steam title ("Peak 53") implementing replicated systems like prone, scope, and ladder, and has also built MMORPG time/weather systems and a projectile/rocket launcher feature for a demo (Meta Island).”

Mid-level Unity Game Developer & Game Designer specializing in mobile and educational games

Málaga, Spain5y exp

“Unity game developer who built the economic system for an idle game (Hospital Empire), using spreadsheet-driven planning and iterative stat tuning to shape player feel. Has experimented with multiplayer networking via Mirror on an FPS prototype and uses GitHub Copilot to support modular/OOP-oriented planning and implementation; prefers remote/flexible work.”

“Real-time VFX artist with hands-on Unity experience (VFX Graph, Particle System, Shader Graph) who builds effects end-to-end—from low-poly Blender meshes to staged, timed VFX in-engine. Has demonstrated optimization work by rebuilding a particle-heavy lightning hand effect into a mesh+shader solution to reduce overdraw and GPU load while maintaining visual quality.”

“Technical Game Designer on TimeSplitters Rewind who owned multiple Challenge Mode maps and shipped modes like stealth-focused “Infiltration” and “target practice,” handling AI placement/pathing, validation logic for multi-mode compatibility, and playtest-driven tuning. Currently prototyping a UE5 Blueprint-driven brawler with class systems, spawners, and Behavior Tree iteration (fear/roaming) over a fast two-week development loop.”

Junior Game Designer specializing in systems and gameplay

Dasmariñas City, Philippines2y exp

“Game/system designer with hands-on Unreal Engine 5 Blueprint prototyping who has owned end-to-end survival and endless-runner mode systems. Strong in progression/economy and hero/stat system design, iterating quickly from playtests (including performance fixes via platform reuse/object pooling) and producing clear, implementation-ready GDDs with formulas and tuning tables.”

Junior Game Designer specializing in level design and sound design

United States1y exp

“Game design-focused candidate with hands-on Unity scripting and debugging experience, including building trigger/animation interactions (e.g., chest activation) and physics-driven movement for a multi-part submarine using Rigidbody and parenting. Has designed a MOBA-style level in Unreal Engine 5 using research and iterative complexity to create multiple paths and objective-based progression, and frequently applies math/kinematics to size spaces and tune realistic motion.”
