Is making games something you think about a little too much?

Are you studying something that points you toward a future in games, and are you looking for a place where curiosity, collaboration, and slightly unhinged ideas are all part of the job?

We’re opening a small number of internship spots across different disciplines for autumn 2026, and we’d love to hear from students who want to spend 2 to 5 months getting close to real game production at an indie studio in Copenhagen.

At Triband, we make comedy games. That means we spend a lot of time asking questions like: What if this mechanic behaved completely wrong, but in the best possible way? Where does the joke live in the interaction? How do we make something feel polished, surprising, and slightly absurd at the same time? As an intern, you’ll join one of our game teams and take part in the day-to-day work of answering these questions.

You won’t be expected to arrive as a finished professional, but you’re absolutely expected to be curious, open to feedback, and ready to learn by trying things. And together with your team and mentor, you’ll shape an internship path that fits your discipline, your studies, and the kind of games professional you’re hoping to become.

Here’s what you’ll do day-to-day

• Join one of our teams and get close to the daily rhythm of an indie studio that takes silliness very seriously.

• Take part in team rituals like stand-ups, playtests, reviews, and production conversations.

• Work with your mentor to define what you want to learn, where you want feedback, and what kind of tasks make sense for your development.

• Contribute to production-relevant work within your discipline, at a level that fits your experience.

• Get sparring from your mentor and teammates, not just on your craft, but also on how to work well in a creative team.

• Be part of a kind, international group of people who care about making good games and making each other laugh.

You’re probably a good fit if

• You’re looking for an internship as part of your studies and are available in autumn 2026.

• You’re studying game design, game development, computer science, digital arts, production, QA, technical art, or something adjacent.

• You want to learn by doing, not just watching from the sidelines.

• You’re curious and proactive and ask for help when you need it.

• You enjoy working with others and understand that games are made by teams, not lone geniuses.

• You’re interested in comedy, playfulness, or surprising people through interaction.

• You care about making the work environment better, not just getting your own tasks done.

Requirements for any job at Triband

• You thrive in taking ownership of your area: you spot problems, seek advice when needed, and implement creative solutions that push projects forward.

• You’re motivated by collaboration, mutual respect, inclusiveness, and creativity, and you actively contribute to sustaining that culture.

• You value a positive work environment and contribute to making the studio a fun and supportive place.

Practicalities

• No crunch. People over deadlines.

• The internship is…

  • unpaid,

  • in autumn 2026,

  • 2 to 5 months, and

  • anywhere between 10 and 37 hours per week (depending on your study requirements and availability).

• You need to be enrolled in a university program that supports an internship as part of your education.

• You need to be able to work from our Copenhagen office (2-5 days/week depending on what we agree on).

• We don’t offer relocation, visa, or housing search assistance for internships. In formal terms: employment as a temporary intern cannot form the basis for a Danish work visa permit.

We offer

• Silly but ambitious projects, and the chance to work on and impact great games that reach millions of players.

• A playful and ambitious work environment where experimentation is encouraged.

• Friendly and kind colleagues who love making each other laugh as much as making games.

• Social activities like Friday bars, hobby nights, board game nights, team events, you name it.

• Daily lunch at a local restaurant just a walk across the lakes away, with plant-based options (and soft ice on Thursdays).

• Endless amounts of coffee.
