When I joined the the company, Sidd was there to help me catch up to speed when I needed it the most. He was extremely friendly and patient whenever I would come to him and ask questions. He was crucial member of the team when it came to build tools and systems for every release.
- Jean Paul Salman (Level Designer at Artix Entertainment)
Sid is a fantastic programmer and great guy. He has an eye for improving the pipeline by making various tools to help catch common issues that can break a release and keep the team on the same track with ease. If big issues came up, he would quickly come up with great ideas for solutions and make them happen. It was an absolute joy working with him and would do it again in a heartbeat.
- Colin Womack (Lead Animator at Artix Entertainment)
Sid is one of the best when it comes to Programming and Software engineering. He was my goto on anything that dealt with emerging technologies and technical flow questions. He will make a great addition to any team that he is a part of.
- Mitchel Pienias (Game Designer at Artix Entertainment)
Sid joined Artix Entertainment at the same time as I did and almost instantly integrated himself into the team seamlessly as if he had been there for years. Sid was quick to make very useful tools for the game engine, gameplay and even Discord. I often found him making himself useful to the whole team as team members approached him for help (myself included), and no task was too big or too challenging because he is a fantastic problem solver. Even already being a top notch programmer, in his down time, I have seen him create opportunities to grow his skills and expand his tool set. In the time I got to know Sid, he has always been approachable and friendly. If I have the opportunity I would work with Sid again.

"Siddharth Jain was a student in my computer networks course. The high marks he received in my class testify to a strong technical foundation, a thirst for knowledge, and the ability to realize complex directions into timely deliverables. I believe those characteristics will translate well into the work place or any professional endeavors."
- Xin Tong (Full Sail University Networking Course Director)
“I joined the company to replace Sid on a side project as he had to pay full attention to the main project. Adapting to the new project was very easy because the code he wrote was very practical and readable, easy to scale, I didn't have much work on developing new features on the original code. He also showed to be a very patient and friendly person when I needed his help.”
- Tulio Duarte (Gameplaye Programmer at Akumi Wars)
Sid was a team member who always communicated clearly, on time, and completed what was asked of him. Not only this, but when handing off his responsibilities to me he was extremely helpful, writing full documentation for his roles and how I would fill them after he left the company. Above all, Sid is as positive as he is capable, showing off his technical expertise at every turn and bringing the team up whenever he was involved.
- Andrew Diaz (Game Developer at Artix Entertainment)
“Fantastic tools programmer. Built several AQ3D tools to greatly improve work flow and team management for our weekly release schedule, including Discord bots to automate the entire build process via commands.”
- Jason Dagger (Senior Software Engineer | Content Developer at Artix Entertainment)
"Sid and his team were able to create their game surprisingly effectively showing a commitment in their education that is definitely above the norm. Because of this they were able to focus on late game balancing and "juiciness" making a much more complete experience than most student projects."
- John O'Leske (Full Sail University Midterm Project Producer/Course Director)
“Sid demonstrated excellence in my course both in professionalism and desire for growth. He quickly assimilates new knowledge and conquered every challenge I put to him with ease. “
- Nick Penny (Full Sail University Software Engineering Course Director)
In my time teaching AI or Engine Development, no other student has stood out as much as he has in excellence and work ethic. He took initiative and created an extra lab for himself, a neural network of a pong AI(we don't have a neural network lab). He's good enough, that he could get hired at a senior level right out of school.
