Job Openings

FlipSide Games is hiring! We are expanding and are looking for people who love games! Not just playing games, but critiquing them, second-guessing the design decisions, grabbing code from the Net to figure out a new algorithm, or striving to just create better artwork than the ones they're currently seeing. If this sounds like you, drop us a line at resume@flipsidegames.net with your resume and sample work.

We give preferential treatment to people with previous game development-related experience. Even if you haven't done any commercial game development work, show us the best code, artwork or mod that you've made in your free time. This speaks to us a lot louder than fancy resumes.
