Lead Artist – Red London Games

About Red London Games 

Founded by AAA industry veterans, Red London Games is an independent game development studio focusing on roguelite games. 

The Project: Heaven Fall 

Heaven Fall is a 3D third-person action roguelite where a goth angel fights through a modern vision of Hell to save humanity. The game relies on a striking visual dichotomy: an Art Nouveau-inspired Heaven (Arcane series) clashing against the oppressive, Brutalist architecture of Hell (Blade Runner 2049, Control game) mixed with anime vibes (Dan Da Dan series, Wuthering Waves game).

We are looking for a Lead Artist to own and drive the visual identity of Heaven Fall. As a hands-on lead, you will be creating high-quality 3D assets while simultaneously establishing the art direction and visual style of the project. 

Key Responsibilities:

● Asset Creation: Hands-on 3D modeling and texturing of key environments, props, and architectural set pieces that define the Art Nouveau and Brutalist aesthetics. 

● Cross-Discipline Collaboration: Work with game design, engineering, and VFX to ensure artistic vision aligns with performance budgets and gameplay clarity. 

● Mentorship & Feedback: Provide clear, constructive feedback to future art hires and external partners to maintain a high-quality visual bar. 

Requirements:

Experience: 5+ years of experience in game development as a Senior or Lead Artist, with at least 1 shipped title. 

Vision: A strong, demonstrable artistic vision with a portfolio showcasing environment work, particularly with stylized or cel-shaded aesthetics.
