Behind is a 4-player platform fighter game, with the unique selling point of only being able to attack each other by attacking from Behind. Attacking from the front will only deflect you away from your target, leaving you vulnerable to other player attacks.
The Game was developed by my team, Nervous Knight Games, as part of a University project. We were selected to participate in DARE Academy 2023, where we successfully advanced to the finals.
This achievement granted us the opportunity to present Behind at EGX 2023 where we were featured in The Mirrors ‘best indie games‘ list on the show floor.
Skills Developed
As the Producer for Behind , I took on a variety of responsibilities, from managing sprints and setting deliverables to working closely with designers and programmers to keep the project on track. I also handled budget management, organised travel for developers to EGX, and created PR and marketing plans.
This experience helped me develop strong project communication skills, ensuring that the team stayed coordinated and informed. I also became confident using Jira and Microsoft Project to track progress, manage resources, and adapt to project changes. Overall, this role allowed me to balance creative vision with practical problem-solving while working in a collaborative team environment.
