Humongous, Hulabee founder jailed
Shelley Day, the founder of game publishers Humongous Entertainment and Hulabee Entertainment, has been sentenced to two years in prison on fraud charges. Day apparently borrowed $1.5 million from the Asia Europe Americas Bank of Seattle claiming that it was to help facilitate the sale of Hulabee to Vivendi Universal — and then used the funds to purchase a $3 million house. Must have been one humongous house!
Back in the early 90s, Day worked on games such as Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo and Pop Rocket's Total Distortion, as well as Indiana Jones and Monkey Island games for LucasArts.
