This isn’t a full-fledged “local game companies” post, because, quite frankly, it would be very short. The GameJobHunter staff is actually entirely in New Orleans now, so we’d love it if there were more of a development scene here.

If you know where the companies are, it makes looking for jobs that much easier. I wavered between a few cities for the next local profile – the finalists were Denver, Madison, [...]
