The yearly Gamescom Chaos is approaching. I’ll be there and am looking forward to seeing all of you! My schedule is already packed with lovely people, but if you feel left out, feel free to hunt me down at the Indie Arena Booth, where I will be roaming when I am not in Meetings. See you there!

I had a fantastic time at #gamescom and #ddc2025! This year, 3 of the games I was part of were showcased at gamescom. I am deeply grateful for the teams, the friendships, and every moment along the way. Huge thanks to everyone who took the time to hang out and who attended my talk at Devcom.

Heading to Devcom & Gamescom next week! I'll be giving a talk on music design Monday, then hanging around the Indie Arena Booth where „The Apartment“ is showing again 🎮🎶 Excited to catch up with everyone! <3 2nd 📸 taken at Dutch Game Day in 2023, by Arne Landsbergen #ddc2025 #gamescom #Gameaudio

As we all know the game industry is going through very turbulent times, unfortunately this has also affected several members of our collective. The silver lining is that one of the largest rooms in our coworking space in Berlin will be available from September 1st. More info in thread...

Why would a composer give a talk about leaving out music? 🎶🤫 If you're curious, come find out at #ddc2025! I’m excited to be speaking this year about “Heavy is the Quiet – How Less Can Be More in Designing Music for Games.” Huge thanks to the @devcom.bsky.social team for having me! #GameAudio

We won! 🦆
„Duck Detective: The Secret Salami“ took home the „Best Mobile Game“ award at the German Games Award – and we couldn’t be prouder! What made it even more special is that our entire team was there to celebrate this moment together. #IndieGameDev #dcp #dcp2025

Thank you to the jury, and everyone who’s supported us! And a special thank-you to Annika Maar for being such a great boss, and also making sure we all get to be there! 💛 Duck Detective 2 is coming out next week - so you better get ready for more bread-fueled sleuthing!

Last year October I travelled to #Japan with my bestie Anna which was a lifelong dream of mine 😊 We took thousands of photos and I finally took the time to go through all of them so I can share them with you. Here is a first glimpse into #Tokyo - the other places will follow in the next days.

Wow, our game Duck Detective has been nominated for the German Video Game Award in two categories: „Best Audio Design“ and „Best Mobile Game“!! #derDCP #GameAudio

Hey #SteamNextFest! 🍞 This campsite might have ghosts, but the real thing haunting Eugene McQuacklin is his failed marriage and bread addiction. Enjoy our demo and waddle around the world of Duck Detective: The Ghost of Glamping. Please let us know what you think!! 🦆

ARTE just released a 15 Min TRACKS video all about #GameMusic, and I had the pleasure of being one of the composers they interviewed for it last year 😊 . In it you can catch a glimpse of what I’ve been up to lately. Check it out here: www.arte.tv/de/videos/12... Would love to hear what you think! 🎶

arte.tvTracks - Game Music - Der Sound zum Zocken - Komplette Sendung | ARTEVideospiele haben weltweit die Herzen der Menschen im Sturm erobert. Aber was wären die Spiele ohne eigens dafür produzierte Musik? Denn diese ist nicht nur fester Bestandteil der Spiele, sondern auch...

While each update of Albion Online comes with fresh content, it’s still extra special when we get to introduce new music. This time, I’ve had the pleasure to write the sneaky and secretive theme for the „Smuggler’s Den“ where the Smuggler’s Syndicate operates. I hope you enjoy the new track too!

I‘m back from Japan! I had a great time exploring together with my friend Anna and am still sorting through all the wonderful photos we took. But Berlin has me back and I will be roaming Most wanted:Music Conference and Gamesground the upcoming week, in the late afternoons. Hope to see you there!

It’s been such a pleasure to visit the netherlands! I was there to give a talk about Audio Budgets at #DutchGameDay & visited the lovely Mascha. There was also a recording for Audiokinetic as well as a day full of talks on #GameAudio. And Mascha & her colleagues showed me around the Guerilla Office

Sad to hear about the layoffs at <#VideoGame company that prints money> and <second #VideoGame company that just posted record profits>. We're hiring at <wildly overscoped game that began as a #Kickstarter project which couldn't even fund the webpage>. It'll be different here. We promise.

Tomorrow I‘ll be demystifying the process of budgeting Audio for Games at #dutchgameday (powered by Control Magazine). I‘m excited! It‘s going to be my last talk for this year and I will take a break from doing talks for a bit after - so catch me while you still can! #GameAudio #WomeninTech

I love this so much ❤️

When your friend is too popular and you have to stream her talk on a conference floor. Very insightful talk about making music decision based on meaningful design decisions by @mariehavemann.bsky.social! ✨

Devcom/Gamescom Recap:  🎤I gave a talk about music design at #ddc2023 💡I’ve learned new things attending talks ❤️I could reconnect with friends & peers I have not seen in years, or in “real” yet. It was so lovely to spend time with all of you <3 📝We even got serious and signed a contract in person!
