Prox Games is looking for a versatile visual designer or illustrator to help establish the complete visual identity of Fortress, an original digital strategy game built around positioning, proximity, and pieces that become stronger by supporting one another. We already have a working game concept, prototype materials, and several explored visual directions. We now need an experienced designer who can turn those ideas into a distinctive, cohesive, production-ready design system. Scope of work The designer will collaborate with us on: * Game-piece design: Create a visually unified family of pieces with distinctive silhouettes and clear hierarchy. Pieces must remain recognizable at small sizes and work well on a digital game board. * Board design: Develop the board’s colors, geometry, spaces, textures, and overall presentation so gameplay remains highly readable while still feeling visually distinctive. * Logo and branding: Refine or create the Fortress logo, typography, color palette, iconography, and supporting brand elements. * Website look and feel: Establish the visual direction for the Fortress website, including page styling, imagery, typography, colors, and representative layouts. Website development is not required. * Overall art direction: Help define a consistent visual language that can extend across the game, website, marketing materials, storefronts, and future promotional assets. What we are looking for: The strongest candidate will have experience in several of the following areas: * Game art or board-game design * Character, object, or game-piece design * Strong silhouette and icon design * Logo and visual-identity development * Website or product visual design * Designing for clarity at small screen sizes * Creating systems in which every element feels part of the same world This project requires more than decorating an existing interface. We want someone who can think conceptually, explore different directions, explain design decisions, and help us discover the strongest visual identity for the game. Deliverables Exact deliverables will be finalized collaboratively, but we expect the engagement to include: * Visual exploration and mood boards * Multiple initial art-direction concepts * Final designs for the core game pieces * Light and dark player-color variations * Board and background design * Fortress logo and supporting brand assets * Color, typography, and visual-style guidelines * Website visual concepts or high-fidelity mockups * Production-ready source and export files * Clear documentation for applying the visual system consistently Final assets should be delivered in appropriate editable formats, including layered and vector files where applicable. We will require commercial usage rights and ownership of the commissioned final work. Working relationship We expect this to be a collaborative, milestone-based engagement beginning with visual exploration and moving into refinement and production. There may be opportunities for continued work on UI elements, marketing assets, animation, additional themes, and future Prox Games projects. We value: * Clear communication * Thoughtful iteration * Openness to feedback * Consistency across many types of assets * Original work and transparent disclosure of any generative-AI use To apply Please include: 1. A portfolio showing your most relevant work 2. Examples of game pieces, icons, branding, board games, or game interfaces 3. A brief description of how you would approach creating one cohesive identity across the pieces, board, brand, and website 4. Your availability and preferred pricing structure 5. The design software you use 6. Your role in any collaborative portfolio projects you include Please begin your proposal with the word "FORTRESS" so we know you have read the complete description. We are particularly interested in designers whose work combines immediate visual clarity with personality—something as readable and intuitive as a classic strategy game, but unmistakably its own.

Hi, Fortress needs a cohesive visual system so the pieces, board, logo, and website feel unified while remaining highly readable. I would start by defining the core visual language: silhouette rules, color logic, shape families, and how light/dark player versions stay distinct without losing consistency. From there, I’d develop 2–3 art directions, refine the strongest one, and carry the same design grammar through the piece set, board styling, logo treatment, and web look. My experience includes strategy-game visuals, strong visual hierarchy, scalable vector assets, layered source files, and production-ready exports. I prioritize clarity at small sizes while preserving personality, so the final system works across gameplay, storefronts, and future marketing. Initial focus: Visual mood boards 2–3 art direction concepts Core piece silhouette system Board color/texture direction Logo and brand style rules Timeline: I can move quickly through concept exploration and then iterate into final production-ready assets once the direction is approved. If you’d like, I can start by presenting the first set of art directions.

Hi, Fortress Game Visual Identity Designer I’m excited about the opportunity to build a cohesive, production-ready design system for Fortress. Strategy games that rely on spatial positioning and unit synergies demand absolute visual clarity without sacrificing personality—and that balance is exactly what I specialize in. Here is how I would approach creating a unified visual identity across the game pieces, board, brand, and website: 1. Holistic Systems Approach Game Pieces & Silhouette Hierarchy: I will design a family of pieces defined by distinct vector silhouettes, ensuring instant readability at small screen sizes. Each piece will feature clear structural indicators to reflect support and strength mechanics, complete with distinct light and dark player-color variations. Board & Readability: The board design will focus on clean geometry, contrast, and subtle spatial cues so player positioning and proximity remain front and center without visual noise. Branding & Web Identity: I’ll develop a strong logo, typography, and color palette that bridge the physical feel of classic strategy games with modern digital UI, creating high-fidelity website concepts that reflect the same world.

Hello, I see the vision for Fortress and how important it is to nail the visual identity. My plan is to focus on the game-piece design first. By creating a unified family of pieces that are easily recognizable, even at a small size, we'll ensure players can quickly connect with the game. I did something similar for another client, and it really helped enhance their game's usability and appeal. Once the pieces are locked in, we can move on to the board and branding, ensuring everything looks cohesive and engaging. What are the key emotions or themes you want players to feel when they play? Also, do you have any specific colors or styles in mind that resonate with the game's concept? Ramandeep K.

FORTRESS Prox Games isn't just hiring someone to skin a strategy game. You need a visual system that makes an abstract idea, pieces growing stronger through proximity, something players feel instantly, before they read a single rule. Here's the question that matters most before any design work starts: right now, if you removed all on-screen text and numbers, could a new player tell which pieces are strengthened just by looking at the board? That answer decides everything downstream. If the visual language doesn't carry that information on its own, no amount of polish on the logo, board, or website will fix the core readability gap, and every asset built afterward inherits the same problem. I'd rather solve that before we talk deliverables or pricing. Are you free for a brief 15-minute diagnostic chat today or tomorrow to walk through it?
