Bunderkin: The Ocular Eclipse
ROLE
Producer & Social Media Manager
GAME DESCRIPTION
Bunderkin: The Ocular Eclipse is an adventure game adapting and expanding the story of Bunderkin the animated series. With core mechanics similar to old-school Zelda titles focused on narrative and NPC interactions.
ACCOMPLISHED
On Bunderkin: The Ocular Eclipse I am managing the entire development team making sure that we are able to properly expand the story of Bunderkin, an animated children's series, in the proper vision of its creator.
I led daily stand-ups managing a team of 10 in person developers as well as with our number of full and part time developers online. I balanced communication between those that were there for all discussions and those that were working remotely and helped keep the project on schedule for the demo to release along with a Kickstarter. Additionally I functioned as our lead of QA and our main visual effects artist, creating a number of stylized environmental visual effects in Niagara.
I helped develop the Kickstarter page, goals, and strategy. Along with this, in addition to my production duties I took the helm of handling all of our social media platforms posting many times a week on YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X, and Discord, helping manage the community and grow our following garnering an average of 400,000-500,000 organic impressions a week across all platforms.
Being able to confidently stamp my influence onto the success of a project so early on and drive so much attention to it in a stage where it could easily fall under the radar is one of my proudest accomplishments. From listening to and implementing community feedback, to driving community engagement and bringing our wishlists on the steam page over 12,000 in its first year of development.
