I doubt they're going to hire someone below the age of 18
Damn, well I guess they would be more experienced

There is no minimum age requirement. Being able to spot bugs and document them in a clear way is what's important, not someone's age.

Thats mean a new test version of US2?Sound cool  :)

The tester will be testing the latest internal build as we make changes day to day.

Pay will be determined based on experience, but will definitely be competitive and notably more than US minimum wage.

You can do that by just pointing out bugs in the Bugs board like the other players :3

I would be more than happy to test the game, but sadly I don't have a super computer and the simulator.

I just found out about this and was wondering if you are still taking apps? I actually live not far from Seattle and I love finding bugs and "breaking" games and engines. Been modding games and deving since 2001 and I have a rather vast knowledge of various engines and what to look for.
