Senedi Everywhere

NST reviews Tapiroo!

The iPhone game that we developed for Ramli & Lim Sdn Bhd has hit the App Store and starting to garner interest amongst casual game players. Here’s a review from the NST:

Finding a formula that excite the masses must be tough but local outfit Ramli & Lim Sdn Bhd believes the formula lies in our heritage. The games developer has dug deep into its roots to produce a simple, casual game that everyone can enjoy.

Brought to gamers by Virtualdodos.com, Tapiroo is named after the tapir while the gameplay is inspired by the old-age game of Galah Panjang. Those who have played this would know that galah panjang is played by two teams, with three to five players on each side.

Senedi is an equal opportunity employer, providing the space and environment for people to hone their skills, develop their careers and make great friends. This year, some of our staff have moved on to entrepreneurial endeavors. As we bid them good luck and farewell, we have new great people on board for the wave of opportunities that we are seeing this year. 2012 is a year of expansion and new opportunities for us - new office, new products and newcomers who bring along their passion for tech and positive energy! We will be introducing our team members here.

Yvonne Chiam is a programmer who “doesn’t look like a programmer” (so says her friends). Nonetheless, she is a dedicated and accomplished software professional with a sunny disposition. Here’s an intro to Yvonne:

I’m Yvonne, just a little simple intro of myself. I enjoy working and have about 4 years experience in web development on Microsoft .Net. Always love to take challenges on (software) development. Most of my friends said i doesn’t look like a ‘Programmer’, *speechless*…. hahaha… My hobby is swimming, dancing, travel, watch Korean drama and meet new friends… :)

Favourite Playground Game now on your iPhone

Virrtual Dodos came to us with an idea: can we turn a traditional playground game like Galah Panjang into an iPhone game? In fact, what would it take and how would we get there? Having worked with other developers before, the founders were cautious about what was really possible.

Together we Alex Ong, we reviewed several different types of game models, churned through several rounds of requirements and gamification ideas, and finally arrived at a confirmed set of features to build. And now finally, the delighted and proud founders of Virrtual Dodos have their iPhone game completed and ready for market!

Download Tapiroo from the Apple App Store and relive childhood memories of Galah Panjang!

Vincent Lim, Senedi’s Senior Software Engineer

As our project managers’ frequent appeals for “more resources!” got louder and as we stepped up on our recruitment efforts, those efforts now bear fruit.

The task turned out to be quite an uphill struggle as we launched our “We Are Hiring” calls far and wide through cyberspace and teh tarik sessions. It was tough to find people with the right amount of experience, a can-do attitude and a willingness to come on board the Senedi ship.

Despite those obstacles, we’ve recently brought on Vivian Tian and now, Vincent Lim! So who’s this dude?

Here’s his own explanation:

Hi… I am Vincent or you can call me Vince… 12 years work experience in web development using MS platform. A simple person here but not as you think that I’m “typical programmer”.. LOL.. Always enjoy life. ;D

My interest - Gym, Movie, travel, makan-makan, minum-minum, hang out with friends, Party-ing(feel free to contact me) ;P

Note: We are still hiring. So if you are interested to know about what it’s like to work for Senedi, send me a note at chingyee.fu [at] senedi [dot] com.
