Hi Fight My Monster is going open play i.e. game on Web, Facebook, iOS and Android.
For those of you that don't know, we're a leading kids/boys MMO game and community. For historial reasons we're biggest in the UK.
Some restructuring took place, and the company is now re-organizing around an open play MMO strategy. We want to be a pervasive PvP Puzzle and Dragons scale game. To enable re-use of our code and assets, we are going the AIR/Starling route and are looking for talented and skilled devs. Ideally you will be in the Bay Area or LA, but happy to hear from anyone anywhere if they can make a strong enough case.
Requirements:-
Necessary: Proven *deep* interest in games with fantastic sample projects to prove experience.
Necessary: Very strong AS3 and at least some Starling experience.
Preferred: Good Java as this makes it possible to debug the entire stack down through Flash UI across network into application layer (we use an AMF "4" custom application server and the Cassandra database)
Preferred: Can work in super agile environment and possibly has scrum experience. We use github, eclipse, have custom continuous build systems etc
Useful extra: solid backend skills i.e. know your way around Linux
Useful extra: Graphics and or game design skills
Useful extra: Data and game optimization skills
