Senior 3D Artist

Why Triarts?

We are a tight-knit team of RTS Veterans building the game we’ve always wanted to play. Triarts is an indie studio with a AAA mindset. We combine the agility and friendliness of a small team with the technical rigor of a major production. We are a passionate group of developers dedicated to revitalizing the genre we love. We believe in a workspace where common sense rules, "crunch" is a failure of planning, and the best idea wins regardless of your title.
