Source Engine Programmer Wanted - Paid Contract
polycounter lvl 19
Hi everyone!
I realize Polycount is mostly an artist hangout, but I thought there might be a few programmers who check out these pages, or some of you may know someone who's interested and can pass the message along.
We're looking to hire a programmer to move our game Brutal from a Video Concept into a playable demo. (If you happen to live in or near Vancouver, BC, Canada its a very big bonus) The work required shouldn't be too difficult for someone familiar with the Source engine and we're offering $5,000 CAD ($4,200 USD) to get everything working. The tasks would be as follows:
3rd Person Camera - A basic 3rd person camera ala Tomb Raider with working world collisions.
Object Manipulation - The ability for characters to pick up, hold and throw physics based objects and ragdolls (basically add an attachment to the hands and remove the gravity gun model)
Animation Code - Any code required to get our custom character animations and skeletons working in game.
Ledge Climb - Creation of a func_ledge entity that allows players to grab the ledge automatically and climb up. Ala Rune, Tomb Raider etc.
Character Abilities Code - Each of the 3 characters has their own special abilities such as Wall Running (ala Prince of Persia), Wall Jumping (ala Ninja Gaiden) and Charge Attacks.
Control Code - Addition of a "Modifier" key to enable streamlined control of characters (Outlined in the design doc)
Weapon Code - Any code required for character specific weapons (mostly melee)
HUD Code - Addition of 4 "Health Bar" systems to monitor Health, Armour, Weapon Strength and Rage.
Rage Code - Code required to have the Rage Meter fill when attacked and drained when using special abilities.
You can watch our Video Concept at http://brutal.surrogateinteractive.com
You can view our Design Doc at http://brutal.surrogateinteractive.com/DesignDoc/
Finally you can see some Media of character models and level design at

If interested, please send your resume, examples of your work (either functioning code, links to mods or videos) and if possible some samples of your Source Code to
