-    Passionate about video games

Bonus Skills:

Self taught candidates that can demonstrate they have the skills are great!

This is a fulltime contract position for approx 1 year in length. We offer competitive rates and a cool work environment.

Serious candidates only! Please send a resume and link to relevant portfolio work.

Seems that your e-mail has strong filter, I tried to send you mail 2 times, and got "Message Refused" answer.
Do you have any alternative contacts?
