Gameplay Programmer

Are you a Gameplay Programmer who thrives on creating engaging and seamless player experiences? Do you love solving technical challenges and collaborating with designers to bring gameplay to life? If you're ready to make a real impact on how players interact with and feel immersed in the game world - this could be the right role for you!

We are unconventional creators of action games for PC and consoles - extremely fun to work with and definitely not for the faint-hearted.

For over a decade, we pioneered the local game dev scene, driven by the ambition to become the regional game dev leader.

On that quest, we pave our way with exciting games developed in Unreal Engine. Our latest released title, Scars Above, is a challenging and immersive 3rd-person sci-fi shooter set in a mysterious alien world. Currently, we’re developing Clive Barker’s Hellraiser: Revival - a first-person action horror survival game based on the beloved franchise. Alongside that, we’re working on an unannounced AAA title set in a famous and beloved IP that fans are sure to anticipate. While we can't reveal too much just yet, we can promise these titles will push the boundaries of regional game development and generate some serious hype.

We are on the lookout for someone like you to join us in our offices in Belgrade, Novi Sad or Sarajevo.

If everything said above ticks all your boxes so far, read on! We might be a match made in heaven!
