Lagged Out Interactive is a growing indie game studio focused on building immersive, story-driven experiences with rich mechanics and meaningful depth. We’re not here for churn-and-burn live services — we’re creating games that respect players and the people who build them.


We’re looking for a game developer to help bring our projects to life. Our current titles are complex, system-driven, and blend narrative with tightly designed gameplay.


What You’ll Do

  • Develop core systems in Godot
  • Build and refine gameplay mechanics, input, movement, AI, UI, and tools
  • Collaborate closely with the team members
  • Contribute to a strong codebase with clean, modular, and maintainable code

You’re a Fit If You:

  • Are passionate about your craft
  • Have strong experience with Godot, or are highly motivated to learn it fast
  • Are fluent in programming fundamentals (ideally with one shipped or playable project)
  • Communicate clearly and work well async
  • Care about polish, performance, and player-first design

Bonus Points For:

  • Experience with complex gameplay systems or movement-heavy mechanics
  • Familiarity with FPS, action, or adventure genres
  • UI/UX, shader, or tool development experience
  • Indie mindset and creative flexibility

What We Offer

  • Remote contract work with flexible hours
  • A respectful, creative, and collaborative environment
  • Direct input into systems and design — no corporate bloat
  • Potential for long-term collaboration and future revenue-sharing


Pay Style

This is a contractor role. Payment is post-project completion, based on revenue from the game’s sales and contributions to the project. Full details will be discussed during the interview process.
