when the dev just wanted some chill BGM but you've transcribed one billion charlie parker solos

In just over an hour I'll be hosting an interview with @davidhousden.bsky.social at #AirCon25! We'll be deep diving into the creative process, musical storytelling, recording live players and more. You can tune in for free right here: www.airwiggles.com/c/live-event... #gameaudio #gamedev

The game industry is a bit of a mess right now and it’s hitting all of us, but when things get bad, they’re often toughest on marginalized folk. So. @aiviwave.com and I are launching the Rising Star Patronage Project to support game composers & make great music! www.gofundme.com/f/video-game...

Five years ago I went to my first PAX not knowing anyone and with no clue how to start connecting with people in the industry. This year could not have felt like more of a full circle moment.

I said what I said.

@pizzapranks.bsky.social's booth is probably the coolest thing I've seen at PAX

It's a beautiful last day of PAX! If you're sticking around a bit, please explore our beautiful city. I promise you there's nowhere to go but up from the Seaport.

Okay we messed up and forgot to take a crowd selfie but you all HAVE to believe me that @maclaine.bsky.social and I had a packed theater today. Thank you so much to everyone who came to our talk!!

Composers AND non-composers, if you're at PAX, come hear about how interactive music is made!

Gonna be doing a panel among some fine folks at Pax East talking about how we started our careers in game audio! @noabeazley.bsky.social @chelwongaudio.bsky.social and Aizhou Liu!

We’re one week away from Boston Gamedev Week, so we thought we’d make a thread to talk about everything we’ll have going on! Okay here we go 🧵 #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev

Very much enjoying today's cycle of soaking up the sun like a lizard, then retreating to my composition cave to work fueled by the stored heat

Audio folks coming to PAX, come hang with us!

Damn rain again bummer oh no

A dev I'm working with told me he recently got a flood of DMs from composers negging him about the soundtrack and offering to rewrite it for next to nothing. They then stopped abruptly. Seems like some "business expert" was telling folks to do this as job advice.

This one's been in the works for a long time and we're so excited to see it coming together! If you're in Boston for PAX East week and looking for dev-facing events to attend, we've got you covered! Signal boosts greatly appreciated.

Hey bsky! We're Boston Game Dev, a community nonprofit supporting the local game development scene. We help groups big and small run meetups, jams, demo nights, lectures and more. Watch this space for more news about what we have coming up! #gamedev #indiedev #indiegamedev

Flying out from GDC and feeling so genuinely inspired and grateful for the people that make up this industry. Thanks to everyone I met for reminding me why I love this so much

The first day of our Diversity in Game Audio roundtable at GDC is today from 3:30pm - 4:30pm in Room 312 in South Hall - if you’re here this Wednesday, come join us! featuring: @chasebethea.bsky.social + @noabeazley.bsky.social + @musikatelyn.bsky.social

Hey GDC! I'm Noa and this is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike. I'm a composer currently working on Re:Awaken and Phosfi, a Boston gamedev community organizer and Professor of Game Audio at Berklee. This is my fourth GDC and my second time speaking!

Hello! I'll be at GDC! Yes I own other shirts! Come say hi!

Had such a fun time showing this #gameaudio system on @sergioronchetti.bsky.social's series while being a giant nerd about adaptive music and big band AND that one string quartet that always plays over fancy dinner party scenes and is definitely not an easter egg in this track. *takes breath* AND

Both talks accepted to PAX East! It's going to be a busy and very fun week. Totally unrelated, if you'll be there this year, there are lots of fun event announcements coming from the Boston gamedev community 👀

Diversity in Game Audio updates! While one of our original panelists will unfortunately not be able to join us, we're thrilled to welcome Nadia to our panel!! In case you missed it, our Diversity in Game Audio panel has expanded to include 6 amazing speakers across 3 days 🧵
