Super excited to announce that I’ll be composing the soundtrack for the game Owlet’s Embrace, releasing on the Playdate! It’s been an absolute pleasure working with @thestrupf. #owletsembrace #gamedev

Playing recent games and noticing (again) that music design (interactive music) is still very basic. It’s been decades like that. I don’t care if most don’t care, I won’t stop pushing for the games I’m working on. I can only encourage anybody that is pushing as well, merci!
