SnowballZ dev-blog

Hello all from Michael Lubker, producer of SnowballZ; We are now looking for developers, mostly programmers, artists, and level designers.

We currently are looking for the following:

Art: 2D and 3D artists, including heightmaps for levels, texture artists, and 3D modelers and animators. Blender knowledge is preferred.

Design: Our main need here is someone to help maintain the design doc and other documentation as well as interface as an Associate Producer to keep the team running. Our other main design need is level designers using our custom level design tool.

Python Programming: Lots to do here; Objects, events, scripting, UI, gameplay, AI, scoring, terrain, level editor, minigames, tools.

Good sites to check out are http://python-ogre.com and http://arcticpaint.com in order to learn about some of the libraries we use.

Production: Per our current way of structuring the team, we mainly need an Associate Producer who helps coordinate the team and keep the design documentation up to date. As well, we will need team leads who are both competent in their field as well as being able to manage and keep their team members on task.

IE Art Director, Technical Director, Community Manager.

Lead Audio, Lead Design, Exec. Producer positions are already filled.

We are not yet ready to start QA but hope to be by mid-August.

Community: We need to look into filling out a full website launch and need web developers to match.

If you can help in any of these things or can refer us to anyone it would be much appreciated. All positions are currently non-relocated volunteer work, though we are actively seeking funding and publishing/marketing partners and have some interest.

Positions that are filled will be noted in the comments. If you are interested in applying for a position please contact us at snowballz -dot - game -at- gmail -dot- com.
