We’re working with Material10 to find a Senior Programmer to work on Gameplay and AI programming, heading up the development of gameplay systems and mechanics in UE5.
This role can be worked remotely from anywhere as long as your working hours coincide with those of the UK based team, typically 9am-5pm GMT Monday – Friday.
Material10 are a publisher and developer who are creating fresh multiplayer games with a vision of transforming video games into digital nations. The studio is led by former execs from EA, Ubisoft, Trion Worlds and Epic Games.
Their new title 'Project Fallen' is a super unique, fast paced AA PvP shooter that blends TPS and RTS gameplay. Players create an army of different commanders and squads to compete against each other — switching between the two modes, giving orders to troops and taking control of commanders to push the intensity of the TPS combat.
It’s set within an apocalyptic future taking iconic locations (the Pyramids in Egypt, the Statue of Liberty in New York, etc) and transforming them to fit the world.
