We’re looking for a web developer with expert-level object oriented PHP 5 programming skills and MySQL to a good standard (and SQL language - inner joins anyone?). You must also be great at W3C standards-compliant front-end web development (valid XHTML/CSS) and JavaScript, and any experience of AJAX would be a bonus.
This is not a web design or Flash position. Send your CV and some recent live examples of your work (explaining which bits you did) to marcus-dot-duffy-at-digerati-dot-info and we’ll take it from there. Salary is negotiable depending upon experience.

It’s not often, but occasionally, we do find an online game that grabs us by the ‘peripherals’ and brings out our competitive streak.
The game is called Desktop Tower Defense created by Paul Preece. By his own admission the concept pays homage to a similarly named facet of another game called Warcraft.
The concept of this game, and most of the games we find interesting, is very simple and this idea of ‘addictive simplicity’ is something we strive for whenever our clients speak to us about online game development. Some of the most successful and endearing games released, in our opinion, would most certainly be from the early years of games development with titles like Asteriods, Tetris & Super Mario Brothers e.t.c.
Well… you get the idea. We think the best ideas are the simple ones.
P.S. If anyone’s interested, Ollie’s our top scorer with 3266
UPDATE! - Ollie completed the game on medium skill with 5088 points
UPDATE! - Steve completed the game and beat Ollie on medium skill with 5237 points and an impressively small maze.
UPDATE UPDATE! - Ollie has reclaimed the lead with 5322!
UPDATE UPDATE UPDATE! - After a bit of a tussle for the top, Ollie has regained a commanding lead with 5991 points.
