Life at Haiku Games in Four Charts

1/18/2018

10 Comments

 
Haiku Games is looking for a game designer and a game developer. What type of people would succeed at Haiku?

Game Designers

Picture
We believe the best way to make quality games is to empower everyone who touches the game to make changes to it. It's not just the game designer's responsibility. For example, our developers might adjust the timing of animated effects so they feel exciting and satisfying for the player. Our artists might suggest a compelling new perspective for our rooms so they look more beautiful and dynamic. Having everyone think about the player experience increases the quality of our games.


Relaxed, Productive

Picture
If you've ever found yourself so stressed out that you can't do anything, you know that productivity and stress do not go hand in hand. We believe you are most productive in an environment that is relaxed and lets everyone see the big picture. This is doubly important at a game company where creativity is such an important part of our jobs.

Nice, Direct

Picture
We believe the best games are made when people communicate with each other. We also love working with nice people. At Haiku, we strive to be nice and direct people. It's easy to tell people that things are going great (and we do - frequently!) but we believe it's just as important to let people know when things aren't working out. If you believe in this type of open, trusting communication style, you'll fit right in at Haiku.

Fast

Picture
If there's one guiding principle at Haiku, it's that if you don't know what to do, it's best to just do something. Preferably quickly. The ability to do work fast with minimal guidance is key because we are a small company. We often don't have the extensive market research or statistics that a larger company might have. Creating something and seeing whether it works is typically easier than agonizing over what might be optimal. At the same time, it's important to know when to slow down and set up a process for something we will be doing multiple times. The ability to function in "optimal chaos" (working quickly, but not so quickly such that everything breaks) is key for working at Haiku Games.

I just want to thank you all for these games. I've played them over and over and never get tired of them. They really take me away from the real world when I'm stressed out and it really helps me alot and I appreciate it. Please continue to make more games and bring back Maya, she's my favorite along with Kate. Thanks again.

I've been playing Haiku Games for years. I think I found you when you first started! I love all your games. They are beautiful, and simple, but very challenging. I'll never forget trying to land the spacecraft in 'Space Crisis'. I must have tried 15 times before getting it right, lol.
My favourite mini game is the Hide/Run - not sure what it's called. Like when in 'Allied Spies', she has to get past the guards, and in 'Pirate's Treasure', when trying to get past the pirates and save their friend.
I do hope you are hiring soon. I love to create storylines, and suggest puzzles.
KEEP UP THE FABULOUS WORK!
Tonight, I'm playing 'The Echo Bay Murders'. Just in time for Boxing day! Relaxing with snacks and Haiku Games after the day is over. :) <3

I was wondering if you could share where you get your music for the games from? Some of the selections are so beautiful, and I’d love to find out where I could listen to them!

I found haiku games awhile ago and I’ve never stopped playing! I love how every detail of the game is well written and beautifully done. I’m currently aiming towards a career in game development and I cannot wait to be able to start up my own games. Thanks for all that you guys do!!
