I finally have a new reel to share! I had a lot of fun making this one! I decided this time around I would only use games that I had actually played and really enjoyed playing! 😄

I have been working with a friend of mine on her stage production of Pirates & Clerics & Rangers, oh my! I handled the SFX, mixing, and mastering and I must say it was a good time! And it's such a fun show!

Just finished #southofmidnight and it was so good! But as much as I enjoyed the story, art, voice acting and everything else the thing that stood out the most was the music! So so good! Thank you Olivier Deriviere! 👏👏👏 Very nice work from everyone @compulsiongames.bsky.social
