This seems all talk and no show. Do you guys actually have any real experience to show us? Videos on some game mechanics, screenshots of custom graphics, some actual designs you have planned, proof of this game which is almost ready to release? All I see is some really bad art on a website with little to no content.

I'll quote you on the website, the entire thing is horrid, but it gets the job done.

As far as a game trailer/more concept, we have a non disclosure agreement until the 1st of April, so you wont have to wait long. As for trailer/website/pre-sale campaign will go live on the 24th of April as well.

I'm actually glad you posted here, we ARE in need of a skilled musician, we currently have 2 composers, Joshua Palacios, and all the music styling of Mathew Pablo, but a heavy metal/orchestral composer such as you, well, that's always needed.

You may want to include a list of open positions. Job design and recruitment, ya know? Pretty basic stuff you've seemed to have missed. Of course, we can't all be human capital specialists or otherwise be an effective business leader. That all being said I may apply once you've got the basics hammered out, or I'd be willing to do it for you (re-invent your organization for you) for a fee. ![:)](http://www.touchofdeathforums.com/community/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png)

Their is a simple reason behind the lack of "open positions".

When you get into the commercial/retail development of a game, one finds that positions need to be filled for jobs that one could simply not have imagined.

The first example that comes to mind is that of a secretary. Never once during the entire planning process of this company could have I imagined that I would, at some point, need a secretary. _Now I have two_. Every day the entire team is faced with similar situations, where we find the need to 'create' new positions to fill(One of our member's official work title is "Scribe", whatever that means).

That's one reason, but it's not the only one, keep in mind that we are trying to quickly break away from the preset 'norms' of game development. By doing so, we are also breaking away from all of it's processes. We cannot hire people with new ideas, if we keep hiring the same way.

Another reason for not filling out a 'positions available' section, is our work model itself. As a Scoria Games Team-member, you are expected to exercise initiative at all times, if something is broken, fix it. If a job isn't getting done, and you have the ability to complete it, then do it.

For this we require people that fit the description on the 'careers' page on the website. If you think you fit into that description, then you'll fit right in!

I understand your perspective, but I sincerely disagree with it.

Edit: I applied. I look forward to our negotiations.

He doesn't have to be grateful, it obviously doesn't apply to him.

Especially considering he can already get free server hosting with complete control whenever he wants/needs it…

I don't need or want free hosting, so that's nicely irrelevant. Also, giving something for free doesn't justify plagiarism; he's willing to steal designs, who says he won't still the data from your game when you host it with him?

Stop being an idiot.
