Job Hunt Survivor is a 2D rogue-lite survival game where players battle the emotional and practical challenges of unemployment within a surreal, floating island that represents the character’s nightmare.

Waves of enemies embody real-world frustrations, including ATS systems, ghost jobs, rejections, and elusive “unicorn” job listings—alongside more hopeful encounters like receiving an interview or having an application accepted.

It’s a symbolic journey of persistence, where progress is the only victory.

I was the solo developer for Job Hunt Survivor, a game that is a cathartic commentry on the current job market. For this project, I handled all aspects of the game: Unity development, 3D modeling, UX/UI design, sound design, and music composition.

I created the pixel art from 3D images and used a Photoshop technique to achieve the pixelated look.
