Responsibilities

• Define the primary gameplay loop for brief AR monster encounters
• Create intuitive mechanics that function seamlessly with a smartphone camera and physical tombstone
• Design interactions among the player, monster, environment, and virtual weapon
• Develop a supernatural weapon mechanic that fires plasma or fantastical energy, weakens or captures monsters, and drags them back into their graves
• Determine behavior for each of the three monsters during encounters and identify where character-specific mechanics add meaningful value
• Design encounters that are immediately understandable and satisfying within 15 to 30 seconds, while also supporting longer play sessions
• Establish systems for progression, scoring, replayability, difficulty, rewards, and player feedback
• Explore how leaderboard and competitive mechanics can extend player engagement
• Help decide whether multiplayer or social gameplay belongs in the initial product or future roadmap
• Design onboarding that requires minimal instruction and quickly immerses users in the experience
• Work closely with AR engineers to design around real-world tracking, mobile hardware, performance, safety, and environmental constraints
• Collaborate with animation, VFX, audio, character art, and engineering teams to ensure gameplay mechanics feel integrated rather than layered onto the experience
• Prototype, playtest, evaluate, and rapidly iterate mechanics based on client and user feedback
• Help establish systems that can expand beyond Halloween into additional characters, seasonal variants, collectibles, and future experiences
