Quantified Publishing is looking for indie game developers experienced with Android / Unity / Firebase (ideally all 3).

*You* are an expert indie game app developer who has published Android games! We are looking for game design experience and a strong sense for what makes a game great.

Most likely, you'd work with casual / hypercasual / strategy games to begin, but you may be given a choice of game designs and asked to create a fixed quote / proposal for each, so that I can decide which of them you would be selected for.

I will share one or more games that I think you might be a good candidate for, and will ask you for a fixed quote and the design improvements you'd make. We expect to pay $100-$5,000 depending on the game and your level of experience, with an option to convert to an hourly basis for maintenance and other work.

Upon success, you may also be offered the opportunity to perform ongoing enhancements and maintenance, or build new games!

To apply:

  1. What is appealing about this contract to you?
  2. Please rate yourself on a 0-5 scale for each skill (not all are required): Kotlin, C#, Firebase, AdMob, In-App Purchases, Game Design, Game Development, A/B testing
  3. Please link to some Android games on the Google Play store that you have created, along with the following: 1. do you own this game? 2. which parts of the game design / development were you responsible for?

Hello, I'm highly interested in starting a conversation. Do you either have an email or a Discord account I can reach out to?

I'm a Unity dev with around 1.5 years of professional experience, and most teams I have worked on have been small, so I am used to working on most aspects of game development, but with a primary focus on gameplay programming and game design. You can see a few of my projects posted here on Itch, and I can get you anything else you might need via email / discord.

Thanks - I just did take a quick look at your profile, but didn't see any Android games at a glance - would you mind highlighting any you've published or contributed toward?

Sure. Technically most of the games I have published on Itch I did as WebGL to increase the number of people who would be willing to try them out, as well as simplicity of testing and sharing. That being said most of my projects would also easily be able to be build for Andoid / iOS with minimal changes, and usually an addition of some on screen touch controls.

https://kusaji.itch.io/dungeon-roller
https://kusaji.itch.io/paradigm-shift
(Paradigm Shift would simply need some touch controls added)
https://kusaji.itch.io/skullsunfortunateadventure
(Much like Paradigm Shift, Skulls Unfortunate Adventures would also need touch controls)

I currently have two projects I am working on, one nearing completion (mobile casual game) as well as a personal mobile casual game which is currently playable, but is missing art assets and needs some further tweaking.

Jump with Up arrow, dash down with Down Arrow, shoot with right arrow, and reset level with Escape (Early testing)

Password is simply cat to view this project.

I can also get code samples, and anything else you might be looking for, simply let me know how you would like to continue the conversation.

Hello, I'm a Unity developer with 5 years experience. I'm a little afraid about my English skills. It will be nice if you give me a chance to show my programming skills.

1. What is appealing about this contract to you? A chance to work from home and level-up my English skills.

2. Please rate yourself on a 0-5 scale for each skill: C# (5), Firebase (3.5), AdMob (4), In-App Purchases (5), Game Design (4), Game Development (5)

3. Please link to some Android games: My first projects were deleted from Google Play because of no updates, and now sometimes I have freelance tasks that I can't show or they were developed not for mobiles. It will be nice if you give me a task and I will complete it as test for you for free.

My discord - beekril#2855
Please, let me know if you are interested in my candidacy.
