There's been a lot going on behind the scenes and I'm way overdue for an update! I'm making a rhythm game with @tapir2342.bsky.social , Rhythm and Goose! We're making fast progress and recently discovered it plays flawlessly on the Steamdeck! Playtesters wanted soon, so stay tuned!

Gibberish style dialogue system in FMOD! Started with a set of beginning, mid and end sounds. Then tell FMOD to select a random clip from the starting group, a random clip to the middle group, and then when you want the speech to end, activate the ending parameter.

I have decided to open-source Chordel, my synthesizer and chord trainer for the Ableton Push 2. This has been quite some work - let me know what you think; or if you have a Push 2 and wanna try it.

Code: github.com/kai-kuehne/c...

Done with the next FF song: Wizard Tower! I wanted "wizard chilling" vibes. I see wizards as mysterious, flighty and unpredictable. I went with a mixed meter ,using a compound meter and irregular meter. (b/c wizards and their compounds and the irregular magic!)

16 measures today done for the next Fortress Flipper Song. This one is stumping me for whatever reason, but you gotta start somewhere!

I made a synthesizer! This is written in C, using libusb, portmidi, SDL, etc. - the hardest part was to get something onto the screen. I wrote more about this on my blog: kaikuehne.net/chordel/

I've been trying to do these 60 min composition challenges for myself recently. I've found it helps me get out of my perfectionist mindset and is starting to also help me get faster. Here is today's!

Feeling compelled to share this spot that I had the honor to work on as part of their campaign. For no particular reason, of course.

It's here! The demo for Fortress Flipper by @diannara.dev is available to play! Starting as a simple game jam game (demo) will soon turn into a commercial release. Yours truly composed the music and did the sound design in FMOD. Can't wait to get into the full game!
