About Us
Chimera Entertainment is an independent game development studio based in Germany. We create high-quality games through strong collaboration, clear ownership, and thoughtful production processes.
Our teams combine creative ambition with pragmatic execution. We value people who communicate openly, think in systems, take responsibility for their work, and help the team make better decisions.
Your role:
You join our team in Cebu and work closely with our Creative Director and the teams in Munich. You’re the first dedicated Game Designer in our Cebu team, which will grow over time. You start on the project “KOM” – our world-building strategy game with RPG, TD and Roguelite elements – focusing on content design and balancing, and will soon also contribute to early concepts and prototypes for new projects. This is explicitly not a single-project role.
As a senior designer, you own whole features and systems. You turn creative direction into designs the team can build, and you help the growing Cebu team get better at design.
Role Overview
Your responsibilities will include:
- Design core gameplay systems, features, and content for the project “KOM”, from high-level vision to detailed spec
- Balance and tune game systems and economies, using spreadsheets, playtests and data
- Write and own design documentation that developers in Cebu and Munich can build from without extra back-and-forth
- Work with developers to get ideas playable fast, test them, and drop what isn’t fun
- Implement and adjust content directly in Unity
- Lead design reviews and playtests, and turn feedback into clear decisions
- Help establish design processes and standards as the Cebu design team grows
- Develop game concepts, pitches and feature ideas for new projects together with the Creative Director

- Hands-on experience in Unity
- Experience taking a feature from concept to release, including the trade-offs along the way
