About the Role

At Memory Ware, we build games that value narrative depth, mechanical clarity, and emotional resonance. Our levels aren't just places to walk through; they're spaces that tell stories, hold tension, and guide players through meaningful interactions. We're looking for a Level Designer who can craft tight, expressive, and system-aware environments for our JRPG-inspired projects. This includes exploration maps, combat encounters, and narrative set-pieces, all with a strong sense of pacing, player flow, and readability.

Responsibilities

• Block out exterior and interior 3D spaces for optimal layout, flow, sightlines, and gameplay.
• Develop engaging and innovative game levels that seamlessly integrate gameplay mechanics with narrative elements, adhering to the game's core principles.
• Collaborate with cross-functional teams, including Art and Narrative departments, to ensure a cohesive and immersive game experience.
• Participate in discussions with designers and stakeholders to ensure levels meet quality standards and align with pacing and player experience goals.
• Utilize level design tools and software, particularly Unity, to create and iterate on level layouts.
• Maintain a balance between creative aspirations and practical constraints such as timelines and technical limitations.
• Produce detailed documentation for game levels to guide the team effectively.

Qualifications

• Experience designing levels for exploration, narrative progression, or tactical encounters.
• Strong sense of space, flow, player guidance, and pacing.
• Proficiency in prototyping and iterating in a 3D environment using Unity.
• Deep empathy for player experience, especially how exploration and story intertwine.
• Familiarity with JRPG structure (e.g., dungeon design, overworld pacing, town/dungeon rhythm).
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively across disciplines.

Bonus Points

• Experience designing turn-based combat spaces and encounters.
• Knowledge of environmental storytelling, visual composition, and spatial narrative.
• Technical skills in camera scripting, trigger systems, or modular asset workflows.
• Passion for games that combine mechanical depth with emotional storytelling.
