Game Music

As much as I enjoy working on code and game design for game jams, recently I've been having a lot of fun working on audio and music: I think game music is really cool to work on, because like with film, the music has to support the themes, atmosphere, pacing and story that's going on in the game. I think game music is fun too, because it's easy to draw from lots of different genres and styles of music, and people accept that game music can sound a bit quirky.

I've worked on music for a couple of recent jams:

"Improbable Mission Force" (https://pyweek.org/e/pw---__/) was a PyWeek 28 Entry for the theme "Tower" that I worked on with some PyWeek veterans: I did the music/audio and a bunch of 2D artwork, plus some script and voice-acting: was super fun. Game started off in a sort of Die Hard-like 2D shooter, but then halfway through the jam our graphics-guy showed us the player character art, which was a bit more like xXx so the music made a bit of a turn from action-orchestra to punk and guitars, and some how synths got in there and it was lots of fun.

"Bunker Builder" (https://alakajam.com/8th-alakajam/874/bunker-builder/) was an Alakajam #8 entry I worked on the audio for: I took a lot of inspiration from the the soundtrack to WarGames.

"El Ratto" (https://karhal.itch.io/el-ratto) was an entry to the Historically Accurate Game Jam #2, in April 2020 for the theme "Black Death": this one was fun because I got to do a bit a research on medieval music, and had a go at playing with traditional instruments.

"Hack::R0ute" (https://alakajam.com/scorespace-alakajam/961/hackr0ute/) was an entry to the ScoreSpace x Alakajam Game Jam in June 2020 for the theme "Connections". I worked on audio/music for the game.

I'll keep posting new music I do for jams and other games to my Soundcloud page here:
