SPINE is built with Unreal Engine 5 and is centered around cinematic gun-fu shootouts. It’s a third-person beat’em’up with a full set of PC gaming features, including a deep storyline, a unique setting, cutscenes, intriguing enemies, memorable bosses, character progression, and, most importantly, breathtaking battles with a wide array of firearms.

  • Work closely with the story and lore. Interpret the story and lore in locations through various tools: from character behavior during missions to atmosphere creation. Possible lore adjustments;
  • Collaborate closely with the content team for consultations and narrative development on locations;
  • Work with text on locations: from environmental inscriptions to mission objective texts and general dialogue suggestions for characters in specific locations (detailed dialogue development is handled by another specialist).

What we are looking for:

  • Experience as a Narrative Designer more than 2 years on PC and console projects;
  • Understanding of staging, cinematic techniques, and scriptwriting;
  • Proficiency in working with text;
  • Ability to switch easily between tasks;

  • Capability to quickly and appropriately find references and solutions.
