Hire Game Developers
who actually ship gameplay that feels right

With EasyEnv we build a fit test for the role. Use it to cut the noise at the top of the funnel, or to go deep on the candidates who matter.

You can even evaluate how this person works with AI. So you hire the engineer who can ship, not the one who looks good in a slide.

Real Linux VM

systemd, kernel, full toolchain

Browser-based

Zero install for candidates

One link and they are in

Auto-graded

Pass / fail checks per challenge

Plus the full session replay

A great game developer feels the frame. The good ones reproduce a "weird input lag" complaint and find the GC stall behind it. EasyEnv hands the candidate a real project with a real bug a player reported and a profiler that does not lie.

Real project, real profiler, every keystroke recorded.

How it works

Three steps. Zero infra to maintain.

Pick the fit test

Use a ready-made challenge or ask us to build one for your stack. Live, take-home, or both.

Send one link

The candidate clicks. A full Linux workspace boots in their browser. No installs, no VPN, no zoom-share.

Review at 2x

Replay the session, read the auto-graded checks, and decide. Most reviews take under five minutes.

The problem

Why hiring a Game Developer is hard.

Game work is taste and engineering at the same time. CVs only show one.

Perf is felt, not measured. The interview has to make them measure.

Engine fluency varies wildly between Unity, Unreal and bespoke.

Multiplayer sync is where careers get made and broken.

The fit test

What we measure for a Game Developer.

Every area runs inside a real production-like workspace. The candidate works in a browser, the session records itself.

Gameplay debugging

A jump that feels wrong. They find the missing fixedDelta or the rogue Update.

Profiling under load

A scene that drops to 22 fps. They read the profiler and act on what they see.

Engine fluency

A subsystem switch (animator, physics, ECS). They know enough to reason about it.

Multiplayer sync

A desync between two clients. They explain authority before they patch.

Build and pipeline

A broken IL2CPP or shader compile. They read the actual error.

AI collaboration

Allow AI for shader or gameplay scaffolding and grade whether they playtest before committing.

The stack we put in front of them.

Real tools, pre-installed, accessible from the workspace terminal.

Sample challenges

What a Game Developer interview looks like.

Pick from our library or ask us to build a challenge for your stack. Each one is a real workspace, not a snippet.

Challenge 01

The jump that feels heavy

Scenario

A platformer where jumping stutters on the second press. Source and profiler are open.

What you learn

Whether they reach for the profiler before they tune the jump curve.

In the workspace

$ ls challenges/

workspace, runbook.md, README.md

candidate has:

· a real Linux box in the browser
· kubectl, docker, terraform, jq, yq
· cluster, repo and cloud creds pre-wired
· auto-checks running in the background

interviewer sees:

· every keystroke + every command
· terminal + screen recording
· auto-graded pass/fail per check

AI in the loop

Score the engineer, and how they work with AI.

AI loves writing C# that allocates. EasyEnv records prompts so you see whether the candidate re-profiled, not just re-compiled, after applying the LLM-suggested change.

Allow or block AI per question, not per interview

Full prompt and response history replayed in the review

Score "verifies AI output" as a separate signal

Role FAQ

Hiring a Game Developer, answered.

Yes. The workspace can run Unreal with a Blueprint and C++ hybrid project.

Yes. Multiple browser sessions can join the same workspace with a real netcode setup.

No. The workspace runs in their browser. Terminal, editor, ports and dashboards are all served from the EasyEnv workspace, so candidate setup is zero.

Each challenge has automated checks (did the service come back, did the test pass, did the right log message appear) plus a recording your team can replay. Most reviews take under five minutes.

Yes. AI access is a per-interview setting. Block it for fundamentals, then allow it later in the loop to assess AI collaboration separately.
