After nearly 8 years of critiquing #gameaudio demo reels, we figure it's about time we crafted a showreel of our own.

Check it out, hope you enjoy! 🔈🔉🔊

[Rift of the NecroDancer @NecroDancerGame]

In the past year, Rift of the NecroDancer received three nominations for best music/audio, and none of this would have been possible without the work of the folks from @PowerUpAudio! Shoutout to the whole team, and thank you for making our music even more powerful 🎧🎸

CORRECTION: Due to a scheduling conflict, our #gameaudio mentorship roundtable has been moved up one hour.

Same location (hopefully), but **starting at 3pm** instead!

See you there!

[Power Up Audio @PowerUpAudio]

Note: Location is a LITTLE bit TBD... the GDC folks like to mix things up from year to year, so sometimes there are tables, sometimes areas are temporarily closed off, etc. - but it'll be somewhere in the Moscone West common area for sure.

We'll update and confirm on the day!

[Power Up Audio @PowerUpAudio]

Hey #gameaudio folks! Going to #GDC2025? We're hosting another informal, open-book, mentorship roundtable! Ask us anything about sound design, contract terms, biz dev, conference tips, demo reels, whatever... we'd love to chat! 🔊

[March 17, 4pm-6pm: 3rd Floor, Moscone West]

Wanderstop launches ONE MONTH FROM TODAY!! This is the game I've been writing/directing for seven years, and it comes out March 11! Here's the video we made where I express a bit of what this game means to me and where it came from.

(any RT's would be much appreciated 😘)

Rhythm games are cool.
Gothic Horror music in games is dope.
Electronic music in games is awesome.

If you're looking for a blend of those three things, you'll probably dig the songs I wrote for Rift of the Necrodancer's Soundtrack.
The game's finally out today on Steam!

Hauntii is nominated for Best Soundtrack at @GoldenJoysticks alongside some other little-known titles like... *checks notes* Final Fantasy and Silent Hill.
