Ratloop Canada_Programmer

Company Description

Want to be part of something innovative and fresh? Are you sick of all the ‘me too’ games out there?

Ratloop Canada’s next project is a stunning new concept. An exciting new way to play a first person shooter with radically fresh time travel mechanics.

As a huge part of a small team, you will get your hands dirty on a number of gameplay and online systems. We’re building a PvP first person shooter so interest in gameplay fundamentals and networking concepts would be well suited! We have a very flat hierarchy where everyone contributes to creativity and game design. We are all very autonomous, hard working and responsible for owning large areas of the game.

If you decide to come onboard, you will be integral to delivering a high quality, super creative AAA indie experience. If this excites your creativity and passion, then we’d love to see how you can make your mark on our project!
