This project was one of the most challenging projects I have worked on. The game was actually in development a year and a half before I even walked in the door. NBA Ballers from concept to shelf was around 3 years in the making. Constant changes in direction and management led to a recipe for disaster for this project. During the final months of the project there were manadatory crunch times and sliding deadlines that brought morale pretty low. However, despite this, the product turned out to be one of the best games to come out of Midway's Chicago studio since they shut down the coin operated buisness in 2000.
