Smol breakdown on the elements that make up Dragonbrand's theme from Cross Blitz by Tako Boy Studios and The Arcade Crew. Had a blast coming up with this track!

Whew, I rarely use Tumblr anymore, but I’m here to ask for support for an awesome game I’m doing sound design for! Check out Victory Heat Rally, a game by Skydevilpalm with music by RobKTA and GWIZ. Please consider backing and/or sharing it! 15 days left on the KS campaign!

Been a while away from the tumblrs, but here’s a thing:
Candies n’ Curses is an adorable and spoopy game I had the pleasure of making music and sound design for about half a year ago. Here’s the link to the soundtrack, you can listen to the whole thing there and if you like it you can buy it!

I like the style of old DBZ games way more than the new ones, so here's a rendition to my favorite track from DBZ: Super Butōden 3. I tried to keep it as faithful to the original as possible with the exception of a few extra harmonies and adding a whole percussion enseble, because the Prince of Saiyans deserves no less.
Original composers: Kenji Yamamoto, Amayang, Chatrasch, SWITCH-E

The Sound Wall is a good wall.
Thanks, Indiecade!
IndieCade #SoundWall: Highway Runners
Title: Highway Runners - Gameplay Composer: CactusBear Game: Highway Runners Developer: Browniless Games (Florian Bronnimann, Steeven Flores)
“Highway Runners is an arcade-style road racing game in the style of classics like Outrun. The game was designed to be as faithful as possible to early 90’s aesthetics with pixel art, optional scan-lines and monitor overlay, 16-bit styled chiptunes and bit-crushed sound effects and voice-overs. The game is available for iOS only, for now.”
Want to be featured in next week’s #SoundWall? We’d love to hear what you’re working on! Find out how to send us your game’s music: [Submit Audio Here]

Are you just as annoyed as I am to see an ad every 4-6 posts in your dashboard now?

The scents of spices, potions and foods and the sight of exciting new gear and other goods give your party a morale boost as they re-stock for their next adventure.

A while ago I was listening to Can’t Buy Me Love and thought “hey I bet if I play this and the Ice Climbers theme together, it would sound OK”.
And it did! I didn’t even have to tweak the key or tempo.
(btw, that’s my “misc” soundcloud account)
