Rumble - SF Bay Area (San Mateo, CA) -- https://www.rumblegames.com We're a well-funded, 40-person startup making and publishing AAA games for browser and mobile. We're making real games for a large audience. Not ultra casual, not too niche-y. Our first title is KingsRoad, a cooperative multiplayer 3D action-RPG. Think Diablo for browser/tablet. But free-to-play, and no big download. No obscure plugins, either -- we use Flash, but you wouldn't believe it. Adobe says they've never seen anything higher quality in Flash. Check it out on or off Facebook: http://apps.facebook.com/kingsroadgame or http://www.rumblegames.com/kingsroad Our second title is Ballistic, a first-person shooter for browser and tablet. It's in closed beta currently, so ping me if you'd like to check it out. In the meantime, here's a trailer from 6 months ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9D3CHKbBDtY We're also working on a third title, a sort of LoL meets PvZ. Come by the office to take it for a test drive! Rumble is backed by Google Ventures, Khosla Ventures, and Korean gaming company Nexon. We have one of the strongest founding teams the gaming industry has ever seen: https://www.rumblegames.com/about/our-team We're both a developer and publisher of games, and we need help on both sides. If you want to develop the next generation of top-quality games, or you want to build and scale infrastructure to 1mm+ concurrent players, this is for you.
