COMPANY PROFILE

Black Ice Studios is a small, independent game development studio composed of several veteran professionals in the game industry (Mass Effect 2, Tomb Raider, Call of Duty, Miner Wars, Heroes of Newerth ...). BIS currently sports a solid team of twenty talented individuals with skills ranging from project management, game design, and 2D art to software engineering, 3D modeling and animation, and even voice acting. World Weavers Entertainment is working on its first game, “Ashes of Mankind” with expectation of a crowdfunding campaign through Kickstarter by the end of the year.

WHAT THE COMPANY OFFERS YOU

Black Ice Studios will be unable to offer any upfront or immediate compensation to the developer who fills this role (which is also the case for current developers), however your time and talents are viewed as an investment towards the game and will be compensated for -- pending a successful campaign through Kickstarter. Beyond monetary compensation, BIS hopes to provide the developer who fits this role with the opportunity to work collaboratively with several likeminded individuals as well as with a platform on which to build your personal portfolio.
