Role

Paper Party is the multiplayer mode of Paper.io 2. We are looking for a dedicated Game Designer to improve the modes we already have and create new ones from scratch.

All modes will keep the Paper universe, camera and controls. Beyond that, there is a lot of creative freedom. You will explore new rules, objectives, win conditions, pacing and team setups to create a broad range of fun and replayable multiplayer experiences.

You will:

• Design and prototype new gameplay modes

• Improve existing Paper Party modes

• Define simple, readable rules for one-finger controls

• Iterate quickly through testing, feedback and playtests

• Balance accessibility, competition, pacing and replayability

• Identify weak ideas early and confidently cut or reshape them

• Work closely with the Paper.io 2 team to turn concepts into playable experiences

• Document your designs clearly

• Fine-tune modes directly in Unity whenever possible

This is a hands-on role for someone who enjoys moving quickly from an idea to a playable prototype, testing it and improving it.
