Web3 gaming job market
Trooper
A job market where gamers get hired, and get paid safely
Trooper connects gamers, guilds and studios in the play-to-earn economy. Companies post paid missions, players apply with a profile that proves what they can do, and a smart-contract escrow makes sure everyone gets paid. We designed the brand, the 3D mascot and the whole product, from first wireframes to polished UI.

How we got there
Our approach

- A secure, blockchain-based escrow for every payment.

Design
A bold, futuristic identity with a 3D mascot players remember. Profiles act as a player's CV, studios list a mission in minutes, and funds are locked in a smart contract before a job starts. Badges and XP make reliability visible at a glance.

Refine
Several rounds of user testing showed where the experience held up and where it didn't, and fed straight back into the design: better search and filters, and clearer review and reputation signals.
The work
What testing revealed, and how we fixed it
A brand players remember
A bold, futuristic identity that reflects both the innovation of blockchain and the excitement of gaming, built to stand out in a crowded, noisy space. The 3D mascot gives the brand a face players remember.
Studios couldn't tell applicants apart
The problem
Studios hiring several players for one mission struggled to filter applications. XP and badges alone weren't enough to separate a reliable player from a lucky one.
The fix
Detailed reviews with comments for each player, so studios can read what previous employers thought. Badges were reworked to surface specific skills instead of a generic score.
Will anyone see my job post?
The problem
Early users worried that a brand-new platform wouldn't attract enough gamers to their missions.
The fix
One-tap sharing of any job post to social media. Every studio becomes a distribution channel.
Finding anything took too long
The problem
Finding a specific profile or opportunity meant hunting through separate sections.
The fix
A global search across the whole platform, with filters for skills, game genres, job types and guild specialties, and results from every category on one page.
