JOBS

We’re a small, early-stage game studio working on a playful 2D mobile game where characters actually feel alive. Think strong character focus, tight gameplay loops, and AI-driven interactions that add personality, not buzzwords.

We’re still early, which means:

• No heavy processes
• No rigid departments
• No “this is not my job” mentality

What we do have is a lot of room to experiment, shape the product, and define how we work as a team.

The Role: Unity Game Developer

We’re looking for a Unity developer who enjoys working on every part of a game, from core gameplay and battle logic to the tiny UI bounce that makes a menu feel just right.

You’ll have real ownership. If you like building things end-to-end and care about the feel of a game, you’ll fit right in.

What you’ll be doing

• Building gameplay features end-to-end (loops, battle systems, meta systems).
• Implementing and polishing UI flows and interactions.
• Adding audio triggers, particles VFX, and moment-to-moment polish.
• Writing clean, modular C# code that’s easy to iterate on.
• Collaborating on AI-driven interactions and boldly using AI tools to move faster.

What we’re looking for

• Strong experience with Unity 2D, especially for mobile.
• Solid C# skills and comfort building systems from scratch.
• A generalist mindset: gameplay, UI, audio hooks.
• You care about code quality and readability.
• You actively use AI tools (ChatGPT, Gemini, Claude, etc.) as part of your workflow.
• Professional working English.
• A portfolio or playable examples to show what you've made.

Nice to have (but not required)

• Experience designing or balancing small game loops.
• Shader or light VFX experience.
• Background in Mobile F2P or systems-heavy games.

What we offer

• A chance to be early in a small, professional startup.
• Real freedom to define tools, workflows, and technical decisions.
• High ownership and direct impact on the game.
• A team that values autonomy, craft, and smart iteration over bureaucracy.

Location: Studio based in Barcelona.
On-site: 1 day per week, remote the rest of the time.
Type: Full-time.

Barcelona · Hybrid

We’re building a new mobile IP from scratch at Tappatapps.

Our first game blends idle progression with RPG systems in a vibrant, stylized world full of expressive heroes and strange creatures. It’s colorful, character-driven and designed to build emotional attachment, not just optimize retention curves.

We’re early. We are still defining this universe and you’ll be part of that process.

The Role

We’re looking for a Unity 2D Game Artist who can comfortably move across multiple parts of the visual pipeline, while focusing primarily on character and in-game production art.

Core responsibilities

• Work with the Game Director in character concept exploration.
• Produce final in-game assets (props and environmental elements).
• Basic 2D animation for characters.
• UI design, marketing visuals and logo work may happen occasionally, but the core focus is the game.

You will collaborate directly with the Game Director and help shape the visual language of the project.

Who You Are

• You care about craft and know how to turn ideas into visually compelling game-ready art.
• Able to go from rough concept to polished, production-ready asset.
• Comfortable working inside Unity.
• Experience with 2D animation workflows.
• Self-driven and organized. This is an almost fully remote position.
• Interested in startup dynamics and creative ownership.

Yes, this is a hands-on production role with real influence.

Why Join Now

• You help define a new IP from day one.
• Your artistic decisions will shape the identity of the world.
• Small team, fast iteration, no corporate layers.
• Hybrid work model with weekly in-person creative sessions in Barcelona.

If this resonates, we’d love to see your portfolio.
