Microsoft hiring for ‘LEAP’ and ‘Platform Next’ game studios
Microsoft is staffing up for two new studios within Microsoft Studios: LEAP and Platform Next. The job listing for Platform Next sufficiently explains the purpose of that studio: “pioneering experiences on Kinect.” We assume that means innovative uses of the tech, not The Oregon Trail.
LEAP, however, is more nebulous: it’s an “incubation team,” identified as “the people that developed Kinect and profoundly changed the way people interact with technology.” It sounds like some kind of think tank for games — but one that is making a game right now, as it needs a level designer.Microsoft hiring for ‘LEAP’ and ‘Platform Next’ game studios originally appeared on Joystiq on Mon, 23 Jan 2012 16:00:00 EST.
