Development Info

On the SpongeBob project, I spent the majority of my time tinkering in a dark corner of a large open room, working on something mysterious named “Floaty Fluid”.

The main features that I developed were the floaty fluid material, along with each of the character interactions, and the buoyancy behaviour for objects within this fluid.

In addition to the fluid, I also provided support to level design, and prepared the DLC pack and associated UI.

At some point on this project, I was acting as the lead programmer, though this is most likely as I was the only programmer remaining on this project.

As this was a post-release expansion, it was also a great opportunity to fix some of the bugs and issues which remained since launch.
