Job Description:

hello everyone,

my name is revan, i'm a software engineer, and i'm looking for people to start a game studio with me.

right now, i'm creating a new runtime technology which will serve as the technical foundation for the studio. i want to use this technology to make games, which is why i am looking for help to create them.

if you're interested, you can check out some programs i've created at [https://redfrey.com/red/]

who we're looking for:

we're looking for people who are deep experts in their main field but broadly skilled across multiple areas. everyone involved in development must be proficient in programming, which is why i'm offering to mentor anyone who joins.

we need a 2D artist most, but the doors are open to anyone interested.

the first game:

the first game is a 2D action RPG metroidvania, with a dual-combat sword/martial-arts system. i'm taking inspiration from the counter attacks of batman arkham, along with the combo system of devil may cry.

technology:

the studio runs on a Plan 9 stack for development, communication, and file serving. the key component is a portable runtime kernel environment which provides files for a game to interact with hardware. if the runtime is ported to a new platform, every game written on top of it automatically supports it.

if you've worked on development mailing lists, this should feel second nature. if not, it's simple to set up.

additional comments:

i'm expecting a commitment of 10 hours a week.

we'll go through an evaluation period of 2 months to see if this works for you and if you fit with the team.

in this founding stage, there is no salary. founders contribute their time in exchange for equity in the company, which vests over 4 years with a 2-month cliff.

after the evaluation, you will be a founding member with equity.
