This is too real. It’s hard to turn off the creative side of your brain sometimes 🤣 Once it’s created one song it just starts to pour out

One of my favorite tracks from the game. It’s so simple but, to me at least, does a great job communicating the necessary emotions to the players. I can’t wait for y’all to hear the full thing in November 💜

Will this be on the test? Jk jk I actually really love this approach. Somehow makes the game feel cozier

They can do a lot to mess with your head creatively…especially when we get into the zone of imposter syndrome, etc. But it’s good to remember that the fact your music is out there and being listened to (even if just by one person) is a huge win

Oh hell yeah! I’ll have to check it out

I’m about to feel so stupid but Ruri? Is it an anime or manga or something? I’m always looking for more that’s why I’m curious lol

My studio Hyperviolet Games is releasing their first demo for a metroidvania named Erebound on November 13th! It’s been a long 5 years in the making.

Sound design never sounds like a real job no matter how hard you try to describe it to people 🤣 And tbh that makes me love it even more

Hahahahaha I love this premise so much 👏🏻

Fact: I’m a huge nerd who loves Skyrim….so when my bf convinced me to write new music that could eventually be compiled into a mod I of course said yes! 🏔️

I hope you like it 🙈 Let me know what you think!

The reason I made this post last night is because of a conversation I saw happening. In it, game devs were talking about how composers don't play games they are working on. The reasons ranged a bit, some going so far as to say composers aren't gamers so having them play the game is pointless. 🧵
Game composers: Do you typically play the game you are writing music for while it's in development? And if you don't, is it because you don't particularly think it's important to, or is it because you aren't able to but you wish you could?
September 24, 2025 at 2:56 PM
Oh that’s fair. If it wasn’t an issue I’d play the game. Whether or not it ended up making a difference it definitely wouldn’t hurt. When composing for a game you have to use every opportunity to immerse yourself in it so might as well ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I’m late to the party but….i rarely play the games but I insist on screen captures and a detailed explanation of the story. That’s usually enough for me to get the vibe and create something that matches

Here’s another snippet from the music I created for Hyper Violet’s upcoming game, Erebound 💀

I love the bassoon. It legit may be my favorite instrument. I know it sounds intimidating here but I promise they’re cool.

Let me know what you think in the comments 💜

That’s fair 😅😅 Look on the bright side, even with beginner technique you made music that sounds fantastic! That’s gotta make you feel hella good about where you’re at now
