  • Events have occurred since my last post!

    In July I participated in the GMTK jam again. Which means that I’ve only been officially participating in making games for over a year! Neat.

    I began officially releasing music. It feels nice to truly feel finished with these tracks.

    And then I re-mixed the track I made for the 2022 GMTK jam and released that as well. I love all of the art Cassie has been making for me.

    Currently, I’m working on my first full album release.

    I’m also working on music and sound for a 2D turn-based RPG horror game called The Red Forest. We’re in the process of finishing up our first demo!

  • Game Jams

    Over the past few months, two games have been made.

  • Welcome to my blog!


    I wanted to share one of my favorite tracks I’ve written this year as a first post.

    This track was written for the Game Maker’s Tool Kit jam that happened in July. A few months prior to that, I was finishing up my degree in film scoring. Throughout my time at school, I felt like I had to write for only orchestra to become a “serious” film composer.

    This jam gave me permission to have fun writing a track and return to a palette that feels more me. It also made me realize how much I enjoy being part of the process of making games.

    Along with that, the jam also introduced me to the game Omori. I was given the track “Forest Frenzy” as a reference from the programmer and artist.

    The first 30 seconds is an intro segment that my friend Chai (also a big Omori fan) wrote based off of the rest of the track.
