# **Experienced WebGL FPS Developer Needed – Performance, Multiplayer & Bug Fixes (No Vibe Coders)** We're looking for an experienced **WebGL game developer** to help resolve critical issues in our multiplayer FPS game. **Please apply only if you're an experienced developer who can diagnose and fix complex issues. This is not a project for "vibe coders" or people relying entirely on AI-generated code without understanding it. We need someone who can read, debug, and improve an existing codebase.** ### What we need fixed: * Investigate and eliminate random lag and performance issues. * Fix game loading problems where matches sometimes fail to load. * Resolve bugs causing players to be unexpectedly disconnected or kicked from games. * Diagnose networking, server, and client-side issues affecting multiplayer stability. * Optimize performance for a smoother gameplay experience. * Debug existing systems and implement reliable, long-term fixes. ### Requirements: * Proven experience developing **WebGL** games. * Strong knowledge of multiplayer networking and real-time game optimization. * Ability to profile, debug, and fix performance bottlenecks. * Experience with JavaScript/TypeScript and relevant game technologies (Unity WebGL, Three.js, Babylon.js, or similar). * Comfortable working with an existing codebase and explaining your approach. * Able to communicate progress clearly and deliver production-quality solutions. ### Project Details: This is an existing multiplayer FPS game with an established codebase. We need someone who can quickly identify the root causes of performance and stability issues and deliver robust fixes—not temporary patches. When applying, please include: * Examples of similar WebGL or multiplayer games you've worked on. * Your experience debugging networking or performance issues. * A brief explanation of how you would approach diagnosing these problems.
