A double-feature for Stomp & the Sword of Miracles today, as its Kickstarter is almost done! The Thunderkin is a wannabe supervillain who at least passed the milestone of harnessing lightning powers. Here's a taste of the music that'll play when you confront him in the game! youtu.be/TUZlN9Hx6ag

Here's another track I composed for Stomp & the Sword of Miracles, as its Kickstarter campaign continues! This is Emberdeep, a cavern lined with lava lakes and flows, amid other, deeper challenges. In this video I demonstrate adaptive layers of the tune that can fade in and out! youtu.be/qpnJwR7pGi0

Stomp & the Sword of Miracles is now live with a Kickstarter campaign, so over the next few weeks I'll be sharing more of the music that I've written for the game so far! Here's the theme for the Duskman, a chaotic troublemaker of a trickster deity and the main antagonist! youtu.be/8I81zbMHTXI?...

A new What I Love video! Heavy spoiler warning: it's all about the endgame of Outer Wilds, and the orchestration/sound design decisions that guide the player through its final sequence. Though I don't talk about the DLC (yet), so if you haven't played through that, no worries! youtu.be/lheIxAMDr0U

A new arrangement! I've turned And Now For Today's Sponsors from Deltarune Chapter 3 into a bombastic big band medley, straight out of a game show from the 90s or early 2000s. I hope to have done justice to Tenna and his showmanship! youtu.be/q7r4kM_-kxc

The game crashed at this point, so I think it's safe to say this is as far as I'm ever getting in #9kings (the normal maximum is Year 99😂)
My friend @oaf.bsky.social and I worked together on a game for the 2025 GMTK Game Jam! You play as a little salmon eating prey to grow and then avoiding obstacles to swim upstream in a loop of life cycles! It was super fun to make and we hope you enjoy it 😄 #gmtk wuvableoaf.itch.io/salmon-gmtk

I forgot to enable Clip Studio Paint's timelapse feature when I painted Warhammer Bowser for the latest arrangement's thumbnail, so instead, I put together a little video of each layer being added in roughly the order I painted them!
And last but not least is the most unexpected pairing: Bowser's Castle theme from Mario Kart: Double Dash!!, arranged in Jesper Kyd's style from Warhammer 40,000: Darktide! youtu.be/bhvDfgITbg0?...

It's a triple attack of new music arrangements! The theme is boss music in the style of a different game... but I ended up arranging *all* the options in the Patreon poll! First up is the Emperor Bulblax battle from Pikmin, in the style of a boss from Breath of the Wild! youtu.be/kxNIe5Z631I?...

Some Deltarune doodles... turns out Schoolhouse Rock's style works very nicely on them
