Limbo, the beautiful platformer from Arnt Jensen, Danish artist and game designer, has announced that they are hiring. Always good news to see an indie game company hiring, Arnt is looking for a developer (C++) to aid in the creation of Limbo, a game which is being backed by the Danish government to some degree. The artwork is brilliant and Arnt certainly knows his way around the industry, having done artwork in the past for major developers. Someone take this job quickly and get Limbo out (preferrably via Steam and/or Manifesto!).

Searching for job offers within the industry is sometimes a major major pain. When your connections don’t pan out and you have to start searching through the wants ads it’s always a confusing myriad of horribly designed search engines, slimy recruiting agencies and job offers that are trapped inside of frames making it difficult for you to print or send to yourself. Those days are over now, thanks to some enterprising game developers in the UK who put together a meta-search site that collects data and offers from some of the largest games industry job search sites and recruiters, displaying them in a simple and easy to use interface. Sure you eventually could get dumped off to the same recruiting agencies you were trying to avoid, but at least your route there was a nice and easy one. You’ll notice that most of the offers are in the UK, but a good number of EU, US and Asian jobs are being added and as more sources are added to the system, a wider variety of job locales are becoming more available. Good job lads, keep up the great work.
