We are passionate about what we do and pride ourselves on our anti-crunch mentality, mentoring ethos and have been awarded ‘Best Places to Work’ multiple times by gamesindustry.biz. In addition, we won ‘Best Creative Service Provider’ at Develop 2022 and were nominated in 2023 & 2024.

d3t’s art team blends technical excellence with a passion for the craft of game development. Our expertise spans the full development cycle—from co-development on features and content to benchmark creation and work on remakes / remasters.

  • Use text-based languages such as Python, JavaScript, or C++ or visual scripting languages (such as Unreal Blueprints or Unity visual scripting) to implement UI logic.
  • Improve implementation based on feedback, design requirements, art, and creative direction.
  • Ensuring interfaces scale correctly across different platforms screen resolutions and perform without frame drops.
  • Tool Authoring: Senior Tech UI artists don't just build UI; they build tools and workflows for the other UI artists to use.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
