Come work with 20th Century Games as a Senior Game Designer! As a full-time cast member within the Disney Games Group, you will draw upon your extensive game design experience by helping games come to life using 20th Century’s properties.

  • Aiding studios in maintaining project and gameplay pillars, identity, and conventions to ensure the games feel on brand and elevate our gaming portfolio
  • Being a consistent and reliable resource of brand and gameplay information for the studios we work with
  • Attend regular meetings and sync with game directors, creative leads, gameplay leads, staff, etc.
  • Assist the product manager of individual game projects as they guide submission workflows, deadlines, wider project communication, and team-wide responses to milestones and submissions
  • Internally maintain and communicate consistent conventions and benchmarks for gameplay systems, features, and assets that should be consistently applied across all projects
  • Keep up to date on industry standards and skillsets related to the projects 20th Century Games have on their slate
