Hire game developers for games that run smoothly and ship on time

Vetting

How we vet Game Developers

Every game developer sits the Cubehire AI interview: multiple choice fundamentals, a timed written and coding round, and a recorded video round. A person on our team then reviews the profile before any company sees it. For this role, the interview checks that they can:

  1. Check 1

    Designs a gameplay system with clean architecture that designers can tune.

  2. Check 2

    Profiles and explains the fix for a frame rate problem on mobile.

  3. Check 3

    Explains client prediction and server authority in multiplayer games.
