Information About Internship

This is an unpaid internship intended to last 6-9 months, depending on your institution's rules and stipulations. The start date is flexible, reliant on the time period of your institution's educational job training period (Sw. "LIA") and how it matches FRAME BREAK's availability.

The internship is not intended to lead into a job offer. The primary goal is to give up-and-coming games students the opportunity to gain industry experience.

About FRAME BREAK

If this sounds like the type of team you’d like to be a part of, we encourage you to apply!

FRAME BREAK was founded in 2020 by a trio of graduates from the game development program at Skövde University. In early 2021, we were acquired by Amplifier Game Invest, part of Embracer Group, and brought into their creative ecosystem, giving us the resources and experience necessary to take our games to the next level.

FRAME BREAK is about making games that break the mold, exploring new genres or creating mashups of existing ones. To do so, we're dedicated to creating a healthy and open work environment where all employees can influence all aspects of the games we develop, regardless of discipline.
