I worked on the project for about 2 years between 2020 and 2022, where I [integrated and maintained the AI for the game](https://www.resolutiongames.com/blog/the-inner-workings-of-a-blaston-bot), developed and published several arcade ports of the game, developed and published the [Blaston Spectator client](https://store.steampowered.com/app/1952470/Blaston_Spectator/) that enabled players and tournament organisers to stream Blaston matches, built the [Blaston wiki](https://wiki.blaston.com/wiki/Main_Page), as well as contributed to gameplay features across several updates (such as the Tundra and Luma weapons).

I frequently interacted with the community in the [Blaston Discord server](https://discord.com/invite/Blaston) as well as the [Blaston Twitch stream](https://www.twitch.tv/blastonofficial).

More information about the game can be found at [its page on the Resolution Games website](https://www.resolutiongames.com/blaston).
