✨ Hello!
We’re Glowmade!
We’re a small, exciting company and the goal of our games is to unlock people's imagination and help them express themselves in wonderful, fun ways. Right now we’re busy building a new multiplayer cooperative game with an ambitious creative wrapper around it. We can’t say too much, but if you can imagine Jim Henson’s Labyrinth mashed up with Wrestlemania, then you’ll be on the right track!
From day one we would like you to…
- Be a passionate advocate for the user experience and how that is manifested in the game.
- Enthusiastically jump into the existing codebase and take ownership over key UI-led features.
- Work closely with both our UI and design teams to help make their needs a reality.
- Get involved in discussion around the broader direction for the game.
- Have opinions about how we can improve the game and its feel.
In six months you will be…
- Pivotal to the success of the game, having designed and built key code features and continue to support them for release and beyond..
- Own the UI code across all areas of the game, from our online features, to the UGC tools.
- Own our internal UI layout and animation tools.
- A central, supportive member of our small team
The ideal candidate would…
- Have a graphic designer’s eye married with an ability to express that in code
- Come armed with a strong technical background, where your intuition to the ‘what’ is backed up by the ‘why’
- Show willingness to do all the things, in order to move the game forward.
- Be at C++ Level: Brilliant, but not so Brilliant you use template metaprogramming, traits and std::range all the time.
- But we are flexible for the right candidate!
A few more bits...
