FreeStyleGames is hiring! Come and see us at the London Game Career Fair - 23rd & 24th October

http://www.gamecareerfair.com/

We're looking for passionate, enthusiastic programmers to join us in creating exciting games for PlayStation 3, Wii and XBOX 360. As well as creating a raft of titles in partnership with Red Bull we're also working on a number of other projects which we'll be unveiling soon. FreeStyleGames makes games with strong music and sports themes - and we're proud to say that our first game 'B-Boy' recently won a BAFTA nomination and a Develop Award, amongst other accolades, for its audio. To us, music is more than just a soundtrack - it's fundamental to the gameplay experience. We don't make FPS's, racing games or me-too titles. We do things a little differently and we like it that way.

At FreeStyleGames we're open to candidates with or without games programming experience - as long as you've got a minimum of 2 years C++, a passion for music, sport and life in general then we'd love to hear from you. For full job specs please click here or contact us.
