About us
Bonfire Studios is an independent video game developer focused on crafting games that weave pulse-pounding thrill with the warmth of belonging. We are founded on the belief that great games are born from lean teams of talented craftspeople who dream big and build with passion. Our first title, Arkheron, is a team-based PvP game currently in a private playtesting phase of development. Our design philosophy centers on fun and deeply rewarding gameplay, imaginary worlds that inspire self-expression, welcoming, long-lasting communities and experiences that become a meaningful part of players’ lives. Landing a role with us isn’t just about joining a team; it’s about pulling up a chair around our bonfire. All of our roles offer a hybrid work experience, but we thrive on in-person collaboration and gatherings at our Irvine, California office.

We play our game daily because 'pretty' isn't enough - if an environment doesn't enhance PVP gameplay, it doesn't make the cut. The vision for Arkheron is set; now we need a Senior/Principal Environment Artist to help us bring this world to life. We’re looking for someone who has shipped at the highest level and is ready to own their workflow in a tight-knit, independent studio. If you want the opportunity to make a visible impact on a haunting, surreal dark fantasy world, we’d love to see your portfolio. View the role and apply here: https://lnkd.in/gxR7GpAF
