Admiring the work of Nicolas Meyssonnier, I followed the development of Pumpkin Jack for more than 3 years as a QA tester until the final release.
I helped testing with different versions of the game and even got the opportunity to design a few monsters such as the Gargoyle or the SpinTree (and another creature called "MineCrab" that got removed from the game for some reasons).
Note that I didn't make the models, animations, or AI, I only imagined behavior, attacks, shapes...What makes the creature's personality.
Nowadays, I keep an eye on the Discord community as a moderator/helper.
Fun fact :
The Gargoyle was first supposed to be a squirrel on top of a trunk, throwing nuts at the player in the Swamp level.
