About Chronicler Games

Chronicler is a highly diverse, people-first game studio building its debut title remotely, currently in Washington State and Florida. Our culture and flexible work hours allows us to create a safe space for people of all races, genders, and backgrounds across the United States, from stay-at-home parents to comic book artists new to the industry. Our first title is a co-op looter shooter with dynamic storytelling, set in our original interconnected universe. It is written for cross-generational audiences with a fully-realized world including complex themes that appeal to both parents and teens alike.

Chronicler was built around the idea that games can do more than just tell a story - that they can be a vehicle for personal growth, and that the stories are a genuine collaboration between players and developers.

We welcome applications regardless of industry experience or level of education. Staying open-minded is part of who we are. One requirement we do have is strong communication. Not only is it crucial to how we operate, but to help you find mentors, develop work-life habits that fit your family, and get training for the skills you need to level up your career, we ask that you communicate your needs and preferences.

We believe that the right tools and people can move fast and create incredible experiences.
