    I've been working in Unity since before I graduated and enjoy working and designing systems and games within Unity and C#. I've been known to go beyond the requirements and to be very thorough when working. If you've got an idea or just rounding out a few components, I can help you! -I have been working with Unity & C# since 2017. I'm always keeping myself up-to-date with the latest version and techniques in the engine and C#. - I have professional experience developing products from just a few sentences. I also don't get attached to my work. If it doesn't work or is wrong, I'll go back and fix it the way you like it. - You can either regularly communicate with me or you may leave me to my work, I don't mind either way as I can accommodate your schedule. While I will attempt to fix any issues I encounter, I will always keep you informed of the issue and possible resolutions. - P.S. I'm also experienced in other programming languages, web development, and a few other game engines. your project may not be a game, but maybe I can still help.

    I am Unity Developer with 8+ years of experience and masters degree in computer science. I started my career building desktop and web apps but I latter focused on building games. Basic knowledge in graphics - 3D modeling and animation - has been even more helpful in my pursuit of making games. Project types I worked on using Unity: -Mobile Apps -2D/3D Games -VR/AR Apps/Games -Multiplayer Games -Gambling Games -Casual Games -Educational Games -Unity Editor Tools Clients find me easy to work with and cooperate, and they usually like to work with me on a long term basis. That suits me too, since I don't like to jump from project to project after a few months of work. I am using Unity with programming in C#. I am not a wizard and I probably cannot do everything that you wish, but I can say that I can do about 80%-90% of the features you need for your game/entertainment project, so let's have a chat and discuss your needs and preferences.

FAQs on Hiring Game Developers

What is game development?

Game development is the process of creating video games. Game developers must not only know how to program but also understand the gameplay mechanics and creative vision needed to make games fun and engaging.

How do you hire a game developer?

You can source game development talent on Upwork by following these three steps:

  • Write a project description. You’ll want to determine your scope of work and the skills and requirements you are looking for in a game developer.
  • Post it on Upwork. Once you’ve written a project description, post it to Upwork. Simply follow the prompts to help you input the information you collected to scope out your project.
  • Shortlist and interview game developers. Once the proposals start coming in, create a shortlist of the professionals you want to interview. 

Of these three steps, your project description is where you will determine your scope of work and the specific type of game developer you need to complete your project.

How much does it cost to hire a game developer?

Rates can vary due to many factors, including expertise and experience, location, and market conditions.

  • An experienced game developer may command higher fees but also work faster, have more-specialized areas of expertise, and deliver higher-quality work.
  • A contractor who is still in the process of building a client base may price their game development services more competitively. 

Rates typically charged by game developers on Upwork are:

  • Beginners: $25 per hour
  • Intermediate: $39 per hour
  • Advanced: $120 per hour

Which one is right for you will depend on the specifics of your project. 

How do you write a game developer job post?

Your job post is your chance to describe your project scope, budget, and talent needs. Although you don’t need a full job description as you would when hiring an employee, aim to provide enough detail for a contractor to know if they’re the right fit for the project.

Job post title

Create a simple title that describes exactly what you’re looking for. The idea is to target the keywords that your ideal candidate is likely to type into a job search bar to find your project. Here are some sample game developer job post titles:

  • Game developer needed with Unity and VR experience
  • Building a mobile puzzle game for iOS and Android
  • Seeking a game developer to develop an action-adventure RPG for PC

Project description

An effective game developer job post should include: 

  • Scope of work: From mobile card games to PC strategy games, list all the deliverables you’ll need. 
  • Project length: Your job post should indicate whether this is a smaller or larger project. 
  • Background: If you prefer experience with certain game genres or tools, mention this here. 
  • Budget: Set a budget and note your preference for hourly rates vs. fixed-price contracts.

Game developer responsibilities

Here are some examples of game developer job responsibilities:

  • Develop game systems, models, and environments with desired game engine
  • Translate game designs into video game elements and features
  • Write clear, maintainable, and testable code
  • Collaborate with artists, designers, and developers to create compelling video game content.

Game developer requirements and qualifications

Be sure to include any requirements and qualifications you’re looking for in game developers. Here are some examples:

  • Game development
  • Programming languages such as C++, C#, and Java
  • Platform-specific software development expertise (e.g., C# with Unity for PC game development) 
  • 2D/3D modeling, rendering, and animation
