Killer Queen Black

Killer Queen Black is an epic, platform strategy game for up to eight players, online or locally, pitting two teams of killer bees against each other in fast, frenetic combat.

Inspired by BumbleBear’s arcade cabinet hit, Killer Queen, the game was developed by Liquid Bit Games and released to consoles and PC in 2019.

I worked on the project as a freelancer in 2020. During that time, I updated the movement code to improve the responsiveness and feel, as well as adding lots of sorely needed visual feedback. I also overhauled the way character sprites were displayed and animated, improving the pipeline for adding new skins as well as laying the groundwork for in-game cosmetics.
