General Discussion / Starsector music -- main theme piano arrangement
« on: February 04, 2021, 10:15:57 AM »
Hey everyone!

While composing music for games I almost always start developing ideas with the piano which often leads to quite elaborate piano arrangements of tracks before they get transferred over to orchestra and synths. Rifled through some projects today while doing backups and stumbled on my old Starsector main theme files ! The piano version I did for that seemed to turn out better than most, so thought I'd share it! (This track's orchestral version plays in the main menu when you start the game)

I recall trying to achieve a kind of television series opening credits feel for this track. Don't know how well that turned out, but ... there it is!

Also, new stuff in the works on the music side so there's more on the way...

Discussions / My old chiptune metal tracks
« on: October 10, 2018, 01:23:34 PM »
Hi guys,

A while back I decided to release some of my really old chiptune/guitar/drums tracks on SoundCloud. This is material from the time I was young, stupid, but motivated to practice playing!

Maybe someone in here appreciates this extremely niche genre, you never know:

Discussions / A medieval/fantasy "XCOM" game you don't know about
« on: May 10, 2012, 02:11:30 PM »
A friend and indie developer in the UK named Dan Lawrence is creating a very interesting game that, in my opinion, deserves a little more attention. It's called "Free Companies" (loosely referring to medieval mercenary groups in italy around 1400 or so) and it's a turn-based, squad-level strategy bombshell in the making. It's still in alpha but there's a blog you should check out and leave some feedback and help make F.C. better. In the game you control your own mercenary group in a big city, go on missions, get rewards, participate in wars, claim territory from rival groups et cetera. I really feel like this will be a very good game when it's ready, I hope someone agrees with me.

Here is the blog:
