Deep in soundtrack mode for Adventure to Fate – Dungeons 👀🎵

Here’s a quick breakdown of the Creepy Crypt Theme — a dark, looping track I wrote to bring tension + atmosphere to one of the game’s spookiest areas.

Game launches Nov 20th — more behind-the-scenes music drops coming soon!

Yeah, I’m that pretentious guy who actually quoted himself but I had a blast teaching these fine folks how to compose music for video games today.

Special thanks to louisvillemakesgames.org for hosting the event.

Excited to be nerding out with everyone Tomorrow!

Hey all,

Adventure To Fate - Dungeons launches November 20th, I thought it’d be fun to toss up some “before & after” footage of the tunes.

The frozen spire theme was a fun exploration of orchestral sounds, church bells and wacky synthesis meant to convey the feeling of holiness corrupted.

I’m performing some heavy battle themes from the @adventuretofate soundtrack series today at @art.sanctuary In Louisville, KY.

Show starts at 6PM.

Livestream on my YouTube channel.

Okay, gotta go practice. See you there!

Just finished this one today. 16-bit inspired orchestral RPG music for indie games. 🎮

Perfect for castle, stealth, or story scenes.

🎧 Original music available for licensing & commissions.

Finally had a minute to toss up some behind the scenes as I put the finishing touches on the Adventure To Fate “dungeons” soundtrack.

Lots of alternate picking, Opeth inspired, yet retains an 8-bit vibe methinks.

Tabs to learn this riff on my Patreon.

🎮 Music isn’t just background in RPGs — it’s the world itself.

When I composed for Adventure to Fate – Dungeons (an RPG designed for blind + visually impaired players), the soundtrack had to guide, immerse, and breathe life into the game.

Here’s how music transforms gameplay:

POV: you’re fighting a sand monster… in 4/4 time 🏜️🎸

Had a blast performing the Desert Battle Theme from Adventure to Fate: Core Quest! Live at warp zone in Louisville, KY. ⚔️

Special thanks to @louisvillemakesgames for having me.

What if this RPG Loop was a FINAL BOSS Theme? 👹⚡

Working on the Adventure To Fate soundtrack, I took a short, chaotic RPG battle loop and expanded it into a full track.

The vibe? Urgency ⚡ Doom 💀 Chaos 🌋 …basically final Boss energy.

Here’s a quick reel from the process.🎵
