About:  On the Crab Farm of Maryland Blues discover what it takes to be a real crab farmer as you run your own tanks and corrals by the Chesapeake Bay and work with IMET( Institution of Marine Environmental Technology).

Raise baby crabs from their Zoea form to being Adult crabs. You have one year to develop your farm and make a profit to provide for IMET. 

Roles: The Bayside Studio team consisted of 9 developers. This game was developed in line with COSC 477 Community Focused Game Development. As a team we had the opportunity to intern and collaborate with the staff of IMET to help them create a game that helps educate children about crabs. 

My role in development was mostly programming and on the side I did several art design related projects. A part of my job was compiling other team member assets into the unity game engine.

One of the most challenging aspects of this development was the intensive UI coding that was required.
