Frictional Games is now looking for a talented programmer to join the company!

Some the things you will work with include:

3D math, rendering, shaders and everything else related.
Console development (most likely Xbox 360).
Hardware implementations (support for motion controls, etc).


TWIN PEAKS is "something of a miracle."
"...like nothing else on television."
"a phenomenon."
"A tangled tale of sex, violence, power, junk food..."
"Like Nothing On Earth"

I thought it was appropriate since I pulled the name of their next game and its release date out of my ass. Razz

Haven't read it yet but I think it's structured to make the player more or less behave like this person did which is quite a good demonstration of horror implementation. Razz

(And it manages pretty well in most cases albeit the above video is a bit extreme, sorry if it was already posted.)

The company is going multiplatform confirmed: http://frictionalgames.blogspot.com/2011/09/amnesia-one-year-later.html

Quote:
Another big change for the future will be consoles. The main reason for choosing consoles is purely financial. Right now our main income comes from very few channels, and we need to spread out the risk somehow. The other reason is that we feel we are missing out on exposure by not being on a console and not reaching as many players as we should be able to. Unfortunately consoles are really old compared to the PC right now, so it will be far from straightforward to develop for two platforms. Our current thinking is to make the console get a lower end version and make sure console specs influence the PC version as little as possible.

Sure. As long as they stick to the third bolded sentence, there won't be any problems.

Their games have really low requirements, much lower than the current consoles, so I have no idea why they had to say that, probably to make PC gamers feel better.

That last sentence is very important..I hope they stick with that..nice puzzles , more atmospheric and less action oriented , that's why I love their games.

Sounds good to me. These guys are ridiculously dedicated to their craft, and I don't think they'll do anything to hold themselves back. That, and they really deserve whatever success they find. They're an awesome team.

Really. Kinect seems to be a great tool for Penumbra and Amnesia games. But ps3 move is way better for this anyway.
I hope they will sell much on consoles unlike pc. This games deserves it. Its fucking unplayable:lol:

“The (exactly) three years of development cost a total of 360,000 US dollars. It has since earned more than ten times that. Take that investors we talked to in 2009!” Grip said.
