Help Apportable (YC W11) bring the next Humble Android Bundle to life

1 pointsby collinjacksonover 12 years ago
Humble Bundle (YC W'11) and Apportable (YC W'11) are bringing indie games to Android through Humble Android Bundles. Indie developers often don't have the resources to create a polished Android version, so they need our help. We've worked together with the original devs to port over some of the best mobile indie games including Osmos, EDGE, Cogs, Avadon: the Black Fortress, Zen Bound 2, BIT.TRIP BEAT, Spirits, Uplink, and Swords and Soldiers. With your help, these bundles have raised $2.4 million to support the Electronic Frontier Foundation, Child's Play, and independent game developers.<p>We're working on a new Android bundle that has the potential to be the best yet. And we'd like to try an experiment. Would any of you like to come to San Francisco and help us finish it?<p>We're looking for strong programmers who love games. Familiarity with Objective-C, C++, and Python will be helpful. No Android experience necessary; we'll be using Apportable's Objective-C SDK for Android.<p>What's included:<p>- All-expenses paid trip to San Francisco (if you're not already here)<p>- Spend 3 - 7 days in the Humble Bundle and Apportable offices in October or November<p>- Hands-on tutorial building Objective-C apps on Android using Apportable SDK<p>- Work with the source code of the best indie game developers (under NDA, of course)<p>- Opportunities for future employment at Humble Bundle and Apportable<p>- That warm feeling that you made the world a better place<p>Interested? Let us know at humblebundle@apportable.com
