Making a Demo for a Job: It's getting close to six years of investing any spare time and focus into programming in hope of a better career. Therefore, it's time to take all these skills and start a new career out of it. Employers often ask for experience and a degree. In the computer field, if you can prove you can do it, you don't need the degree. I'm hoping it's still true today. Otherwise it will be another four or five years before I'll get a degree. Follow my progress by become a member of WolfCrown.com. Your incite will be appreciated.

Web site features: I'm guilty of kicking myself in the teeth, and biting off more then I can chew. The features I have planed for this site are vast unto it's self. Be aware that without reachable income produced by the web site, the features aren't going to happen quickly. Only direct features for coding journal and organizing game testers.

Seeking Talent for Crew: So here's the logic, even if I don't get hired with the demo real, then I'll still need to earn income. Therefore, others in the same boat are more then welcome to join my efforts and produce a marketable product, like I've done so many times in the past.
What do new crew members get out of this? Before I get to that, a little back information, new programmers to the field of gaming need to gain real life experience before they can be hired into a corporate team environment. In order to get their first full time job requires experience with real deadlines, and dealing with red tape. Therefore, what we offer here at Wolf Crown isn't red tape, but we do have and have many positions open for self motivated coders/artists/writers/musicians who would like to gain experience in the career field of choice.
To apply to any below, send us a link to your web site or art journal site by e-mail.
- Graphic Artists: you'll need to have decent skills in drawing, and coloring. You'll be required to scan and e-mail images.

- Music & Folly Artists: Must have your own equipment, able to e-mail mixed samples, and able to telecommute via e-mail.

- 3D Programmers: Requires strong understanding of C/C++ and adequate understanding of OpenGL. Able to hard code models is a big plus.
- 3D Graphic Artists: Requires strong understanding of C++, and OpenGL. You'll be taking models and adding textures to them. Currently there are NO tools available for mapping and importing into current applications. Standard templets for 3D objects may need to be rewriten. Able to document in your code needed information.
- Tool Programmers: Tools are to be written in Java and input and output C++/OpenGL code in raw text form.
- C++ Programmers: A strong understanding of data manipulation is required. For example, what is the asci value of the keyboard character zero and asci value for the enter key on the number pad. Or what is the asci character for EOF.
- PHP/mySQL Coders: If you feel you can go further then what I, Dustin McBeth, have done so far with this web site, then lets talk! This position is one of the only paid positions offered right now. Secondary job is for a person to teach/coach PHP/mySQL.
The only mandatory requirement is you have to bring your own motivation. Your mission if you choose to accept, is to assist in bring a handful games up to industry standards. We have a few game types for you to choice from. I'm seeking a position!
