Playdead looking for gameplay designers
Playdead is expanding. We are looking for talented gameplay designers to work on the ambitious follow-up project to Limbo - our highly successful debut title.
As a gameplay designer at Playdead, your main responsibility is to design and build challenging levels as well as prototype new intriguing game mechanics.

Responsibilities include

- Design and prototype AI behaviors.
- Work with tools for setting up camera, animation, etc.
