About Job Hunt

What is Job Hunt about?

Job Hunt — A playful 3D browser arcade game where players apply for jobs and complete work deliverables by shooting hoops.

A fully playable, standalone 3D browser arcade game built with React, TypeScript, Vite, Three.js, and Supabase.

Apply for jobs by shooting your CV into company basketball hoops, accept job offers, complete work deliverables with the same aiming-and-throwing mechanic, earn coins, and climb the global leaderboard.

Executes the Vitest test suite testing deterministic shot evaluation, employment state transitions, and reward idempotency.

What Job Hunt says

Some of what Job Hunt tells you as you play:

• “Job Hunt — 3D Basketball Career Arcade”

• “On a break: Resume work anytime to submit deliverables”

• “You haven't submitted any other applications yet. You can apply for other companies while holding your current job!”

• “You haven't applied to any jobs yet! Head over to the court, aim your CV at company basketball hoops, and shoot to submit your application.”

• “PERFECT SWISH! JOB OFFER!”

• “CV IN! JOB OFFER RECEIVED!”

• “CV SUBMITTED! UNDER REVIEW”

• “PERFECT SWISH! DELIVERABLE SHIPPED!”

How scoring works

Players are ranked by Coins (highest first). If two players tie, Deliverables (highest first) and Stars (highest first) decides it. Only your best run counts. Sign in with start.ng to save yours.
