Sharkie was created as a brand extension of the mascot for The Sharks rugby team, Sharkie. It’s a side-scrolling runner where you get to play as Sharkie, and need to dodge obstacles (like tackle bags, scrum machines and shark cages) while running across the field at Kings Park Stadium. There are 80 levels to play, mimicking 80 minutes of rugby, and the player needs to score a try and a conversion at the end of each level. We updated the game with an endless runner mode as well, including missions to create some variation in the gameplay.

Sharkie is available for free on iOS and Android and was the fist mobile game I worked on.
