The game I’m composing music for was featured in the IGN Xbox Showcase yesterday! How cool is that! I’d love to share a bit of my backstory if anyone is interested. LMK! #gameaudio #gamedev #gamemusic #vgm #cozygames #composer #indie #gaming #indiegame #cozygaming #gamenews youtu.be/gVb0BptxN6w

Sometimes very good things happen. This time is one of them. 📢 We’re going to show our trailer at the @ID_Xbox x @IGN Showcase on February 24! It’s huge for me.😳 #gamedev

I finally finished the trailer just today. You know, after finishing, you still have a lot of finishing to do. 🤣 Anyway, I'm waiting for the day I can share it with you! 😊 Sounds ON!🔊 #indiegame

If you’re an indie dev and haven’t heard of Chris Zukowski🧡, go for it! I’ve learned a lot from him about marketing and continue to learn more. He explains marketing in simple terms, making it bearable for indies. 😌 howtomarketagame.com

I feel this 😂

It’s been a lot of fun going back through old songs to share on here! Here’s one I made as a teenager called “Silent Loss”. It’s been edited down a bit to fit into 60 seconds. #gameaudio #gamedev #gamemusic #vga #vgm #chiptune #composer #gamecomposer #indie #gaming #indiegames #indiegamedev

It’s always a good day when your publishers are happy 😂 #indiegamedev #indie #gaming #indiegames

Today, we had a production call with our publishers. We showed them our progress over the last two months. In short: they’re excited, and we’re excited because of that! 😄 I’m exhausted. ☠️ It’s handy to have a good relationship with your publishers.😉 1 year, 11 months, 18 days #indiedev #gamedev

I can almost taste it!

Short little chiptune I made many years ago called, “Cool Man Theme” 😂 #gameaudio #gamedev #gamemusic #vga #vgm #chiptune #composer #gamecomposer #indie #gaming #indiegames

Going to an 80’s themed party tonight.

HeroQuest night with the boys! #heroquest #tabletopgaming #dnd #d&d

Here’s another old one from like 2002 when I used guitar pro to compose. This one is called, “Beach” 🏖️🏝️☀️ #gameaudio #gamedev #gamemusic #vga #vgm #chiptune #composer #gamecomposer

A guitar student of mine requested to learn “Helena” by My Chemical Romance. That one really takes me back 😅👨🏻‍🦳

Nintendo Music, a new smart-device app exclusively for #NintendoSwitchOnline members, lets you stream or download music from Nintendo’s library of soundtracks! Nintendo Music will be released later today! Learn more: ninten.do/6017WPx81 youtu.be/DQ5EeImWYaI?...

Hmm… let me think abo—

⭐1 year, 9 month, 29 days⭐ This is how much time we spent making the game full-time. Also add in 2+ years of work from time to time. And here we are... still a lot of work to do. If you want to see how the game goes until release, I'll show you in a diary I've started here. With you. 💛

Hi, I'm glad you found me here and thank you for being around and supporting me and my game. 🤗❤️ I hope that in a new place I can create a small but close and warm community and finally stop worrying about likes and impressions. 😌

Hey, I’m Don Roberts, and I’m currently working on the music for the cozy puzzle game, Woodo. I’m about a week into BlueSky now and I’ve been really surprised by how much easier it is to find other composers and musicians and connect with them!

EarthBound is often thought of as a game that became a cult classic after being ignored or disliked when it came out. So let's look at every EarthBound review I know of from gaming magazines, especially what they thought about the graphics.

Been seeing other people post old music so I thought I dig some of mine out! @edb87.bsky.social remember this one? The date on my old guitar pro file said 2001! 😱 I would have been 16 when I wrote this! #gameaudio #gamedev #gamemusic #chiptune #composer #vgm

I’m in my “fix the broken refrigerator door shelf with duct tape” stage in life

I know it’s Blue Sky, but I always read it as Blueski, like brewski. #thereiruinedit

Hand drawing in some volume automation for instruments tonight. What a pain, but always so worth it 😂 I need to get me a midi hardware slider or something 😅 #gameaudio #composition #logic #gamemusic

Played pickleball for the first time today. That was actually quite fun! I’ll definitely be back for more!

Currently making some cold brew coffee ice cubes… I think I’ve hit my peak level of coolness. It’s all downhill from here…
