Hey Travis, just briefly I've been really interested in adding community features to webapps and games (one of my main projects right now) and after moving away from Wordpress for a while, I started investigating other solutions and frameworks for other usecases. R4nkt seems to be promising, so I'll keep an eye on it :)

Liam,

Thanks for your comments...! :-)

R4nkt might be a good solution for you. There's a list of community features that are on the ol' todo list...like clans, friends, enemies, challenges, etc. Right now, we've got the foundation in place: players, achievements, badges, leaderboards, rankings, etc...as well as the infrastructure to support communications between our customers' systems and r4nkt. Definitely looking forward to building upon this foundation...!

Anyway, right now we're looking for developers with a legitimate interest and need to use r4nkt for free for a while to provide "feedback that will help us iron out wrinkles, address any unforeseen pain points or missing functionality, and determine near-future feature development."

So...keep that in mind, and please share with anyone you know who might be interested.

Thanks, and don't hesitate to let me know if you have any questions. :-)

Would I be able to join the team long term?

Hi Liam,

I'm sorry, but are you wanting to join the team as an employee? If so, then it's possible we've had a misunderstanding. We're not currently in a position to hire any employees at the moment.

What we are looking for is developers/companies who have applications that they would like to gamify. For the next few weeks or months, we would like to open up r4nkt to be used by a handful of these developers/companies for free. We would ask for feedback during this time as we work to polish the service and find any possible pain points that we may have overlooked.

So, we would like to work together in that regard. Does that make sense?

I understood what you were offering but I was enquring about going a step further. But yes, it does make sense
