AppliCant

AppliCant is a short, reflective platformer about the current job market.

Created by Zain Jahangir, a veteran game developer with over 12 years in the gaming industry working for multiple AAA studios like Zynga.

This game was born from real frustration after being denied multiple positions on the very same project the dev had worked on for 5 years without any explanation.

It’s a simple game, but a deeply personal one — a small, playable reflection of what so many talented people are feeling right now: applying, hoping, waiting… and hearing nothing back or getting denial without explanation.
