I have some extremely exciting news to share with everyone! As of today, I have officially signed on to be a Sound Desginer for @cleverghoulstudio.com !! Thank you all for following along in my journey and believing in me. More exciting things to come, stay tuned!

Tonight, I'm putting away my Valve Index. Can't believe this might be the last time I see this in action for a while.

Desolus is now available on Steam and major platforms! Explore a city of Gothic architecture torn between past and future in this first person puzzle game. This has been a 13 year journey of development and I'm incredibly excited for people to play it. store.steampowered.com/app/1003460/...

Huge congrats to Mark for releasing Desolus, check it out!!

How sound works #gamedev #gamedevelopment #indiedev #gameaudio

It is @cleverghoulstudio.com 1 year birthday!! I've been with this studio for 6 months, and it has already been a positive impact for me. I went with the word community, because they were the first ones, in a cold industry, to welcome me with open arms. I can't thank them enough. #ChaosCommunity

As someone working within the game industry in some small capacity, I feel like I need to say this dude is a psychopath and a freak. I implore everyone, especially retro game enthusiasts, to avoid supporting him by avoiding ModRetro products. I could go on, but I'd hit the character limit.

years and years ago I ended up at the same party as palmer luckey, and even though he was already the oculus rift guy by that point, everybody recognized that he was an sad loser freak and avoided him

Posted this yesterday about what it was like post-launch and how I feel 5 months on. bsky.app/profile/grey...

what the hell is this music school teaching my kid

I should really be more active here on bsky... Anyway, I made a new blog post about my experience during GMTK jam! Check it out! #gamedev #gameaudio alexnstudios.com/2026/10/09/m...

ATTN: Richmonders of Bluesky! I'm organizing with a group of neighbors to shut down E. Broad St. on Halloween to keep East End trick-or-treaters safe from reckless drivers. The city requires off-duty cops, insurance, barricades, etc., so we're raising money to cover the costs. Chip in if you can!

Rooting for my ducks today at the start of football season! I've been waiting all year for this again! #goducks

Let's try and make the next milestone happen! If this interests you, please wishlist and tell your friends!

Game announcement! I'll be composing music for Vermilion Sea by @mkiang.bsky.social, a turn-based RPG inspired by Chinese/Korean history. Big fan of turn-based games, so this'll be a fun project to work on for sure! Will share the Steam link and KS page below!

Big things are happening 👀

Amazing turnout! I love the support everyone has been giving to game workers and this union.

There some exciting things that we're building at the studio. Great opportunity for anyone looking to get into the industry!

Not much of a Palworld person myself, but we have a great community of people on the discord server!

This industry is filled with passionate people. We will continue to honor that passion for the devs under our studio and continue to advocate better video game industry conditions for all. 💕

Damn, this is like that Knicks game all over again. Everything that Trump touches turns to shit. #worldcup

Little sneak peak on the game I'm working on. Some cool concept art and gray boxes, if you're into that sort of thing! #gamedev #indiegame

Today's Daily Cartoon for @newyorker.com by Kevin Maher and me.

What is not told in this headline is that this budget also includes funding for flock safety cameras and lack of funding for richmond virtual academy, among other things. I'm extremely disappointed that the city did not take action on our concerns, no matter how many times they said they "hear us".

I also made a whole adaptive music system to go alongside this remix! It's meant to replicate the adaptive system that's present in the modern green hill and sky sanctuary stages Full process and behind the scenes are on my channel :)

Not able to make it, but y'all should check this out!

I just realised that an almost empty can of shaving foam makes some great noises for designing lava sounds. Why didn't I try it before? I don't understand how this idea only came to my mind now lol #sounddesign #gameaudio #foley #gamedev #indiedev #soundeffects #audiodesign

showing at festival of gaming in tribeca this weekend, come get some free cards and make an offer on my used deck

Woah, I really gotta revisit this game!

Our game has received Overwhelmingly Positive reviews on Steam in 3 days!! Thank you so much everyone :-)

Big News! We've sold 10,000 copies of Forbidden Solitaire! That's a lot of cursed gamers out there :-o You can endanger yourself via these stores: Steam: tinyurl.com/ywj43ptj GOG: tinyurl.com/2s3sv45j Itch: tinyurl.com/3k4bjt8m

First week done at Clever Ghoul Studio! I so wish I could tell you all about the exciting things happening, but they are happening! I'm so incredibly fortunate to have found this incredible studio!

It's a really great game! I played about an hour of it and I had to tell myself to put it down instead of "just one more round" Gameplay is solid, but the atmosphere is impeccable. Love the FMV as well. I highly recommend Forbidden Solitaire based on my first impressions!
