I’m CJ, co-founder of Third Wave<\/a>. We’re a startup building big-screen social gaming experiences for bars, theaters, and other spaces where crowds gather. Our platform lets groups of people play games on a shared screen using their phones as controllers. Here’s a quick look at a recent playtest.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’re launching a pilot at a bar in the NY area this fall and are looking for a few folks to help out during game nights. The core of the role is just:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

– Observe how people play and how the experience goes down
– Report back what’s working and what isn’t so we can iterate<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Secondary to that, we’d want their help building word of mouth for the pilot and maybe filming the occasional reaction interview with folks onsite.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is paid work, flexible hours, and a chance to see a live product get shaped by real player feedback night to night. It would suit someone with a game design, game development, or interactive media background who’s a sharp, attentive observer and comfortable interacting with a room full of strangers.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
