About the Hiring Process
To apply, please contact us through one of the options listed at the bottom of this posting. Please include your portfolio and samples of games that reflect the above requirements or create a small test game that includes :
- Sword fighting (Nothing fancy, a simple slash that deals damage to an enemy. doesn’t need to look pretty, just needs to work. Important the Enemy needs to take damage and needs to show that it’s taking damage)
- Clicking a brick that removes that brick from the game, adds points to the player’s score and after 10 seconds, returns the brick to the game to be clicked again. (Again, doesn’t need to look pretty, just needs to work. Important There should be an indicator that the player has received points besides the Leaderboard.)
- Coins that are removed from the game when touched, add in-game currency and are brought back after 5 seconds
- An item/model that makes you twice as fast when equipped and can be bought by stepping on a brick when you have enough (5 coins worth) in-game currency
Important for the purposes of this test, you may use whatever items you want, including free assets from the toolbox. The test does not need to be detailed and just needs to accomplish each task.
