    Hyper Light Drifter studio Heart Machine has moved onto their next game project, as they’ve begun hiring a number of staff to fulfill various roles at the studio.

    The most interesting thing regarding the new job listings is the fact that the studio is working on an “ambitious new 3D project,” all built within Unreal Engine 4. Their first game, Hyper Light Drifter, was touted as an exemplary modern take on pixel-art.

    Here’s the full listing of jobs, via their official website:

    • Gameplay Engineer
    • Technical Artist
    • Environmental Artist
    • Level Designer

    Hyper Light Drifter is currently available for PC, Mac, Linux, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. From what it sounds like, the studio might have earned enough to not warrant another Kickstarter campaign for their next game.

    We’ll keep you guys posted.
