if you want the game industry to positively change, you need to stop paying money to companies that do not change. it is not enough to keep giving company money while tweeting "this sucks" some companies bank on "whales" paying even when company makes Not Good products

This weekend I finally heard the song I cowrote with RON, “Aspire” performed live by Liella! at Yokohama Arena As one of the few western composers writing music for Love Live in Japan, I am forever grateful for this opportunity

late to the party but Mario Kart World OST the best video game soundtrack, probably of all time. Direction, scale, technicality, creativity, consistency, legacy, diversity, implementation I haven't so positively reacted to any music like this in a long time

Me: “Living in Japan has its challenges. There are many systemic and bureaucratic issues that can be difficult to stay here long term that might require me to move when I settle down.” Also me: “but the katsu rice bowl is 3.86 USD”

Gamers‼️ I wrote and produced the song Aspire for Liella! Love Live! with R • O • N on their latest album release! I am thankful for the opportunity to work alongside Ron who is a powerful creative force in this music space

I love seeing fandom of games Ive worked on and also, fans who make things that claim to be "better than the original" lowkey should be devs have to factor limited time, budgets, (mis)management, deadlines, more fans can create solely from passion, no externals
