We're building DuckSoul — a soulslike roguelike about one small duck up against a very unfair world. We've signed with a publisher and are aiming for a release in the first half of 2027, and we need three more passionate people to see it through with us.
Small team, so you'd cover a lot of ground. We work remotely, and if you stay through launch, you'll have a shipped game on your portfolio.
You'd build the duck's and bosses' combat motion in UE5. The whole feel lives in split-seconds — rolls, parries, hits — so we're after someone who can nail that timing with montages and notifies.
You'd build the combat FX in UE5 Niagara — sword trails, hits, boss skills, the stuff that makes a screen pop. There are six elements to cover, and performance matters since a run throws a lot at you.
You'd model the duck hero, bosses, and monsters — stylized characters built to fit the UE5 pipeline. Some of it starts from AI-generated base meshes, so refining those into ship-quality models is part of the job.
A duck soulslike that looks cute and hits hard. Short, sharp runs — die, learn, go again.
No application forms. A portfolio link and a quick hello — that's plenty. KakaoTalk open chat is fastest.
Just name the seat somewhere in your message — that is all we need.
