About this role
HyperHug is an international game development studio specializing in the shooter genre. Our main office is based in Cyprus, but our talented team works remotely from around the world. We’re developing Oxide: Survival Island, an immersive multiplayer survival shooter for mobile platforms, and we’re always looking for motivated individuals who want to grow with us, contribute their creativity, and help shape the future of our games.
We’re looking for a Senior VFX Artist to create high-quality, realistic visual effects for weapon skins and other game content. You’ll own the full VFX pipeline — from developing an effect concept to preparing it for integration.
WHAT YOU'LL BE DOING:
- Create mobile-optimized VFX, including effects for weapon skins.
- Develop effect concepts based on the provided theme, models, animations, and initial ideas.
- Own the full VFX pipeline, from defining the scope to preparing the final effect for integration.
- Create shaders, create and improve other gameplay and environmental effects across the project.
WHY YOU'LL ENJOY WORKING WITH US:
- We provide all the software, plugins, AI tools, and asset libraries you need for your work.
- High autonomy: we trust your expertise and don't micromanage
- Space for bold ideas: create striking VFX that go far beyond standard muzzle flashes and hit impacts.
WHAT WE EXPECT FROM YOU:
- 3+ years of professional experience as a VFX Artist in GameDev.
- A strong portfolio featuring VFX from realistic game projects.
- Extensive experience in Unity.
- Solid understanding of mobile optimization.
BONUS IF YOU HAVE:
- Experience creating VFX for cosmetic content (e.g. weapon skins).
WHAT WE OFFER:
- Competitive salary.
- Remote work format.
- A passionate and supportive team that values creativity and ownership.
- Opportunities for professional growth.
- A culture built on initiative, transparency, and collaboration.

About this listing
Published on Ashby under the board identifier Hyperhug, which is the name the employer’s own job board carries. RoleSprint has not verified the company’s registered or trading name, so it is shown exactly as published rather than tidied up.
RoleSprint is not the employer and not a recruiter. Applications are made on the employer’s own site and never reach us; what RoleSprint does is help you decide whether a role is worth your time and prepare for it if it is.
