    I was contracted as a Build Engineer, working on Blubber Busters, a run-and-gun 2D action platformer that pits players into the depths of space (or space whales).

    My contract concluded in October ‘15, but the teaser below most accurately reflects the state of the game during my time with Thar Be Monsters.
