OT - Career change advice - Game Designer

[deccan]

Hmm, after that romantic getaway advice thread, I'm beginning to feel sort of silly but anyway, this is lots more interesting...

A couple of weeks ago, I wrote to apply for a job. Now it seems that they're very interested to meet me, and even after I'd explained that I would only be in Malaysia (the place where the company is located) at the end of December, they said that they would be willing to wait.

The position is question is Game Designer with a fledgling company. I have no real experience in this, but apparently they were impressed by my c.v. (which makes for quite interesting reading I must say) and claims about being really into games.

The problem is I have a relatively high-paying job right now, though it's a dead-end one with relatively poor long-term prospects, and taking up their offer would mean earning much less money. The good point is that it'll probably be a lot of fun, plus I get to actually stay in Malaysia which is where my friends and family are after all, instead of jetting off to remote places like Africa and the Solomon Islands.

Any advice?

Anyway, their website is: http://www.phoenix-gamestudios.com/ and their main product is http://www.fungwanOnline.com/html/main.htm

I'd appreciate it anyone could give me any idea if they're any good or if they have a viable business there.
