The quest
We are well on our way with our current title ALARA Prime (https://www.youtube.com/c/ALARAPrime), which was revealed (pre-alpha) just this July!

The gameplay experience is crucial for the success of the game. This is where you come in...

You'll be part of our Code squad (10 peers) and together you will refine the feel and tactical importance of core gameplay elements, as well as develop a broader set of gameplay elements that integrate seamlessly with the existing core.

In this role, you'll collaborate with your peers in the Code team as well as with members from other crafts to find creative solutions to gameplay-related problems. There will probably always be more than one alternative to the solutions we're building and the connected discussions regarding "how" and "why" we build those solutions, are something you enjoy diving into.

The project:

You'll spawn right into the gameplay of Alara PRIME and here you can find out what the game is all about on our YouTube (https://www.youtube.com/c/ALARAPrime) and at https://www.playalara.com/

What about relocation?
If you're an EU-citizen authorized to work in Sweden, we're all for it! We handle relocations on a case-by-case basis, but will be able to assist with the most important part, which is finding a home for you. Unfortunately we don't have the capability to offer work-permit solutions for non-EU citizens at the moment, something we hope to be able to provide as we grow in the future.
