Hi,

So a few months ago I landed a job as a game developer. My main role is to implement some animation software and its API into our current engine, and to help integrate our new workflow into other projects.

We have a game coming out soon, which uses the new software and my implementation of their API. However, it uses it in a very small way (one screen at the start), the game could have used more of it, but I joined very late on that project and I have been focusing on a different project. That said, the publishers did point it out as being a nice touch, so I've got that going for me, which is nice.

So can I say I worked on this project and class it as a released game I have worked on, even though my contribution was very small?

Hopefully you'll have a couple of proper titles on your CV by the time you look for a new job, and this can sit as a single bullet point in an 'Other TItles' section.

Just don't exaggerate it on your CV, the chances are reasonable that the guy who will interview you will know someone who was on that game team for the entire project, and you really don't want to be caught out in a lie.

Yeah I would expect that you'd be in the credits list under "additional programming". Is this not the case?
