Applications are now closed. Thanks to everyone who responded. We have found someone and are coordinating the work now. Please understand that it will take some time before we will have further news to share on this subject.

Do you have OpenGL skills and experience of porting tools such as SDL? If so then we may have a little job for you...Although there have been third-party Linux ports of some of the X series games in the past, we have decided that the time has come to bring all that good stuff in-house. There are various reasons for this, but most importantly it will allow us to offer a unified product on Steam, so that you can buy our games once and then play them on different platforms.Starting from an existing port of X3:Reunion, we are looking for someone to help us build on that and enable us to release our own ports of X3:Terran Conflict and X3:Albion Prelude.Requirements:• Excellent C and C++ programming skills• Good knowledge of OpenGL• Experience of SDL and Gtk a definite advantage (XCode too!)• Experience of other relevant libraries (e.g. multi-media) also useful• Steam account (experience with the Steam API would be a bonus)• Access to hardware and appropriate programming tools• Willingness to set up and test on a range of OS platforms and distributions• Ability to communicate at a technical level in EnglishInterested?
