Job Description
We're embarking on an amazing journey, together with Lightstorm Entertainment and FoxNext Games, to the world of Pandora, developing a new cutting-edge game set on the beautiful and dangerous moon from the prominent Avatar film franchise.

Constantly evaluating the accessibility, ease of understanding, and level of difficulty for your designs

Qualifications
