Was Bach A Video Game Music Genius?

I developed a technique for writing combat music for video games.
Aesthetically, it's inspired by the battle music in various Zelda games, but I based it on counterpoint to make the dynamic fragments more seamless while increasing the amount of variation one can get out of the core ideas. #gamedev

Also: thanks to the wonderful @mathildesound.bsky.social for the adorable handcrafted ODDADA earrings that can barely be seen here, and which I now use on all expos and conventions. I love them.
The Norwegian games expo (SpillExpo) has been an absolute joy. We’re so happy with the reception of our game Sacred Gems!
Some parents had to physically drag some of their kids away. My heart broke a little when one of them asked if he could get it for Christmas bc it’s not out yet 🥺

Thanks for having me work on it! It was fun to merge non-conventional percussive sounds with jazz.
With the book released and the audio version on the way, check out the music for Steam-Powered Battle-Barrels by Oliver Getz from @nordicscoring.com and myself! First up, the opening theme!

I'm not making a game to appeal to a wide audience, or for as many possible people to play it.
I'm making a game for a handful of people to love it to pieces.
I'd rather make something that one person loves with all their heart than something a thousand people think is okay.

We put together some footage from our initial meeting with voice talents for the game Panta Rhei, where our narrative designer/CEO and the talent discuss their character.
This one is with @ginaleighsmith.bsky.social, who gave our main character a voice and greatly improved their personality.

I regret not having been active here lately. One of the games I’m working on is launching in less than a week, and it’s been challenging to balance various aspects of life.
I also had an important deal fall through recently, due to the other party changing their terms just before signing. Not ideal

Game Audio in Norway is currently hosting a series of lectures on Dolby Atmos.
It’s been really insightful, all from making creative mix decisions to building an Atmos certified studio.
When consumers start expecting Atmos in their games, there is no going back.

I'm slightly inconvenienced by the fact the functionality "hide empty staves" in music notation software hides measures that have only rests in them. A rest isn't nothing, it is in fact something. The measure isn't empty >:c
