Stardust Frontier's steam page is up! As a little thank you for checking it out, here's a look at the game's first boss theme!! Really in love with the more mechanical/robot-ish kinda sounds and ideas in this one!
If you're coming to PAX west I hope you can give it a try!

The go-to number for a mid tier composer for games is $1000/min of finished music.
Im sure you've heard that for a...while, As far back as 2016!!
www.gamedeveloper.com/audio/budget...
It's been 10 years, with inflation that number is $1367/min
I repeat: $1367 per minute of finished music.

I have an extension that blocks reels on instagram, but it actually breaks them instead
Where scrolling doesn't work 70% of the time, and every reel plays it's sound on a loop
I think this is even more a deterrent than outright removing them and I love it
