New #RandomThingsInMouseWork this time is ‘Caged Croc’. Any guesses which job he will appear in?

This art is a little special as it was drawn by Nitrome CEO @mat_annal ’s daughter Nikita Annal at the age of 13 as part of her school work experience!

There are quibble enemies walking on platforms above him. Austin on floor 19, surrounded by blue oppies, Barbuta knights, and cavemen throwing bones. A whiteboard in the background reads "Game ideas: Something starting with V" Austin and Justin on floor 54. There are red and blue ant enemies, as well as fly enemies.
