Interest … a bit about Escape Velocity:

Escape Velocity is a team of experienced and passionate developers, working at a studio that offers great benefits and a chance to work on a fantastic project – but that doesn’t make us unique. What does make us special? We value the time, energy, and talent of our players and our colleagues. We want every hour spent developing and playing our games to be an incredibly rewarding and worthwhile use of your time. To that end, we are fully remote and support team members nearly anywhere in the world. We prioritize autonomy and care more about what you bring to the game than how many hours you’re clocking. We constantly re-evaluate how we are spending our time to ensure that we’re always working on the most important things; and we’re dedicated to building a culture of play that not only makes us better game makers, but also strengthens the bonds between us all.
