Background
Seagull Swipe started life as a Starfox esque shooting game where you played as a Seagull, after much trial and error we tried differing control schemes and went for a more on rails touch based swipe system. It was our largest project to date at the time, but was an easier project to manage thanks to having more experience. We released onto various mobile platforms in 2015 and it became our highest grossing game.
My role
I had a few roles on Seagull Swipe, but my primary one was the game design, it was a game that required a lot of experimentation. I also took care of the project management, managed the quality assurance, finding finance for the project and anything else that was needed at the time.
