The Drifter was one of NPR's best games of 2025. It's Unnumbered which means that we are officially equally as good as Donkey Kong Bananza. www.npr.org/2025/12/03/n...

Thought I'd post part of the intro sequence to Barrow now that the game is officially cancelled. I sketched most of the main song out in the old Samurai Punk office way back when the game was mostly greybox. It didn't end up changing much at all really.

This is a cancelled game I worked on last year. The whole team did great work on it and it had the potential to be pretty cool. If anyone has a spare half mil lying around feel free to shoot Nick a message.

Introducing Barrow! A Gardening FPS where your Grandma has opened a portal to a decaying underworld in her cottage town. We were unable to secure funding but I'm excited to share what the team built. bit.ly/43xLiXG 🎮 Pitch Demo 📄 Project History 🖼️ Gallery 🎶 Soundtrack 🫂Team Credits

The Drifter took home Sound Design, Visual Art, Narrative and Game of the Year. Big result for Dave at the AGDAve's this year.

The Australian Game Developer Awards (The AGDAs) @agdas.bsky.social · last yr.

The #AGDAs25 Winner For Game of the Year is... The Drifter by Powerhoof

We got some sneaky AGDA nominations for visual art, gameplay, narrative, sound design, music and game of the year. Dave's gonna need some extra hands to hold all his accolades.

The Drifter is up for six awards in the AGDAs! :O :O :O

Experimenting with some atmosphere for the Crab horror game @nicholasmc1.bsky.social and I are making. Still tossing up having music at all or just having ambience sfx. 🤷‍♂️ Nick was mad that I didn't have the HideTutorials preference on so now I'm leaving it off forever out of spite.

Niche post but a thing that is cool & handsome to do if you are a fan of Unreal 1999, cause UMX files are just S3M and IT files under the hood you can download OpenMPT (Or any tracker software) and just open them up. All the samples are there. the whole composition is laid out. Genuinely interesting

Posting more unused Drifter songs because why not. Nobody tell Dave. This was a song I was going to use in the kitchen in chapter 7 but it became way too energetic for such a small area that you enter and leave so quickly. Managed to reuse some of the elements in the last half of ch9 though.

My boy Dan made this cool Playdate game.

Daniel Draper@draperdanman.bsky.social · last yr.

My latest game for the Playdate is out now! It's a turn-based tactics game about becoming water fighting champions. It's silly and whimsical, and hopefully a good time to boot.

Thought I'd post the original first sketch i did for The Drifter 2 years ago. Back when I was planning to just make everything sound like Vangelis. We've come a long way. Minor spoilers for green blob character i guess...

The Drifter music is on bandcamp now for all you bandcamp freaks out there. Give it an ear squiz if you want to hear some dark-synth jams and or bops. 🎼🎶

The Drifter OST is now available now on Bandcamp! 🎵 powerhoof.bandcamp.com Over an hour of saw-tooth bass lines, crunchy stings and fierce melodies from @mitchellpasmans.bsky.social and @louisdmeyer.bsky.social

Just showing off my first custom script i made in reaper while mixing the VO for The Drifter (available now) Made a script that iterates through all selected items and does a custom action which fades up to the first transient then fades out the item from a certain volume threshold. I think its neat

We hit the overwhelmingly positive threshold! Don't think there is any benefit in terms of algorithm or anything but it feels nice.

With the existential dread that I'm feeling towards the advancement of AI I'm finding more and more joy in the small rebellion of making and supporting weird shit. Sort of feels like I'm poisoning the well you know. Make stuff that is un-generatable. Allowing myself one doomer post a week btw.

In the critically acclaimed videogame The Drifter (Out Now) the word "Drifter" is spoken two times in the over 11,000 lines of dialogue. Subscribe for more DriftFacts.
