About Us
Bampot Studio is an independent game studio creating satirical, emotionally resonant games that blend humor, social commentary, and heartfelt storytelling. As we prepare for our first public launch, we're looking for a designer to help establish the visual identity of the studio.
What We're Looking For
We're seeking a designer to create a cohesive brand identity for Bampot Games. This project is focused on giving the studio a professional, memorable visual presence across our website, social media, press materials, and future game releases.
We want you to pitch the initial aesthetic concepts from scratch. The only creative element we have completely locked down is our studio mascot: a badger. We are looking for a designer who can take that starting point and build a distinct, trademark-ready identity around it.
Project Scope
- Primary logo (incorporating our badger mascot)
- Logo variations (horizontal, stacked, monochrome, icon)
- Color palette
- Typography recommendations
- Brand guidelines/style sheet
- Social media profile images and banners
- Favicon/app icon
- Press kit graphics
- Exported, trademark-ready assets for web and print (SVG, AI, PNG, PDF)
Ideal Candidate
- Strong portfolio showcasing branding and logo design (pieces showcasing bold, irreverent, or character-driven design are a huge plus given our studio's satirical tone).
- Experience creating cohesive visual identities.
- Excellent typography and composition skills.
- Comfortable collaborating, pitching concepts from scratch, and iterating based on feedback.
- Ability to deliver clean, organized source files.
- Experience working with indie games, entertainment, or creative brands is a plus, but not required.
Future Opportunities
While this engagement is focused on establishing Bampot Games' visual identity, we're building a long-term studio. As new games, marketing campaigns, merchandise, and other branding needs arise, we'd love to continue working with the right designer. This role could be a great fit for someone who wants to build a lasting creative relationship with an indie game studio and grow alongside us as the business evolves.
To Apply
Please send an email to zach@bampot.studio with the subject line "Brand Identity Designer". Please include:
- Portfolio (logo and branding work preferred)
- A brief overview of your design process
- Estimated timeline and your availability to start
- Your quote for the project
We're looking for a distinctive brand identity with personality, not just a logo. If you enjoy building memorable brands from the ground up, we'd love to hear from you.
P.S.
We want to be transparent about expectations. This is intentionally a relatively small-scope project and is best suited for recent graduates, early-career designers, or someone who enjoys collaborating with indie studios and wants to grow alongside us. While we're absolutely paying for the work, we're a small independent studio, not a AAA publisher with an unlimited budget.
More than anything, we're looking to build a relationship with someone who is creative, team-oriented, enjoys bouncing around ideas, and wants to help shape the identity of a studio from the ground up. If we simply wanted a generic logo, we could have created one ourselves. What we're really looking for is someone whose creativity, perspective, and personality can help elevate Bampot Studio as we continue building future games and projects together.
To help us filter out automated applications, please include the word "Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious" somewhere in your email. It doesn't have to be obvious, we just want to know you actually read the posting.
