[color="#000000"][font="Calibri, sans-serif"]SYNAPSis a strategy puzzle game based on the classic Chinese strategy game GO, where users capture and secure territory on a grid using Stones to indicate ownership. SYNAPS follows many of the same rules as GO while introducing new and exciting options and features![/font]
[font="Calibri, sans-serif"] [/font]

[font="Calibri, sans-serif"]Compensation:[/font]
[font="Calibri, sans-serif"]Wedo plan on monetizing this project, hence it is deferred (you willget paid after the game ships). Your compensation will be based onposition and hours invested. In the end, we will all get what we putinto it.[/font]
[font="Calibri, sans-serif"]Technology:[/font]

[color="#2a2a2a"][font="Calibri, sans-serif"]LEAD PROGRAMMER[/font]
[color="#2a2a2a"][font="Calibri, sans-serif"]Currently,we are without a programmer! Initially we need a programmer capableof developing the product for computer, but ideally we will beporting to many of the popular mobile devices so additionalprogramming knowledge may come in handy. I might point out the"Lead" part of the title means that there may be moreprogrammers but we need someone to head the department.[/font]
