I think about this old Shareware game "Dare to Dream" all the time for some reason. #gaming #shareware #retrogaming

New (used) half angled 24U (12U angled, 12U on bottom) rack I got super cheap locally! Still waiting on my rack ears for the Audient EVO though to finish setting everything up.

Here's a quick 45 minute sketch for fun for Day 22 of Noisevember! Bit of a Mario Paint mixed with Zelda lofi vibe going on I guess. #videogamemusic #gamemusic #gameaudio #videogameaudio

Testing out my new audio interface + ADAT (before I rack them) so I can have 16 synth inputs. Success!

I recently acquired a Kurzweil K2600r and it may be the coolest thing I own. It made me feel a certain way hearing a lot of the old Chrono Trigger samples in their full quality glory. Plus the VAST synthesis system seems DEEP.

Here's a few short snippets of the fishing hole music. (Had to re-upload this for some reason).

Here's me being bad at a bit of fishing in the Rune Fencer Illyia demo. Rune Fencer Illyia is a Metroidvania by Nootbox games filled with a ton of minigames like our fishing hole. Music by me! #pixelart #Gamedev #indiedev #ドット絵 #VideoGameMusic #indiegamemusic #gamemusic #GameAudio #VideoGame

For what it is worth, here is the cat (Sophie the orange cat) that my profile picture is based on. She makes a very good discord emoji. Enjoy:

Here's a section of an early WIP music sketch for (possibly) a little cozy house side area in the upcoming metroidvania Rune Fencer Illyia. #GameDev #indiedev #gamemusic #VideoGameMusic #indiegame #ゲームミュージック #RuneFencerIllyia

A little sketch/riff the other night using the Alesis QSR from 1997 for the first time. I don't know why I got stuck on the Harpsichord patches. Owl music! #gamedev #gamemusic #vgm #VideoGameMusic #indiedev #GameAudio #VideoGame
