[Video] My dream job Interview at the Bitmap Brothers

Post by Retronaut »

My dream job Interview at the Bitmap Brothers

In the Summer of 1994 an unbelievable opportunity fell into my lap.
I spotted an advert in a games magazine.
The Bitmap Brothers were looking for a new member of their team.
Bizarrely, I had EXACTLY the qualifications they were looking for.

Join me, as I retrace my steps, from 30 years ago,
when I headed along a road in Wapping, East London,
knowing that if I played my cards right,
I might work at my dream job,
at my favourite game developer, the legendary Bitmap Brothers.

I did, very interesting. I went for an interview in Wapping in 95 and ended up living south of the river in Surrey Quays. A great part of London.

Thanks for sharing.
I guess that would be the dream job for most of us from that era.

I really like Z2 by bitmap brothers on the PC. Did you get to do the graphics for it?
Of course I have Zenon 1 & 2 and Gods for my ST. :wink:
