This is my entry for the 33rd Ludum Dare game jam.
Music and sounds by Mike Jones.

A 72-hour Start-Up Weekend project focused on teaching children German, 'subliminally' through video games.

Developed in conjunction with the Center on Teaching at Learning at the University of Oregon, this educational game takes common core math curricula from early grades, and transforms them into game-like experiences. MMC features a unique aesthetic by Portland artist Brian Wolf, and delightful interactions that keeps kids engaged. By plugging into a back-end analytics engine created by CTL, teachers can get the information they need to help their students succeed.

Auger was created as part of Ludum Dare 29, a 72 hour game creation event, to showcase the technical capabilities of RealityFoil, LLC's creation engine Vixle. I created SFX and Music for the game.

Pipeworks, in cooperation with Skybound and 505 Games, is elated to announce the upcoming digital version of SUPERFIGHT, the hit card game of outrageous arguments. Pitting players against one another in battles of hypothetical wit, SUPERFIGHT challenges players to make compelling arguments about the kinds of trivial subjects we all spend far too much time pondering. Who would win in a fight between a drunk Darth Vader and Abraham Lincoln riding a bear? Which is the better weapon: a rope of sausages or a skunk on a stick?

I did the sound effects, Dialogue recording and editing, and final mix. Show less

What started out as a mod for the "Make Something Unreal" competition in 2008, Rewind has come a long way from being a fun experiment after hours, to being a fun and awesome full first person puzzle experience.

I did all of the sound effects and reverb volume treatments.

"ATTENTION PEOPLE OF EARTH!
The peaceful planet of Earth has been invaded by evil aliens! These aliens, the Zorn Empire, want nothing more than to conquer and enslave every planet they come across. Yikes!"

SoccerDie is a harken back to the classic 8-bit era of games. Everything, even down to the color palette and sound quality was created aesthetically to be in that era.

I created all the sound effects and some additional music for the menu, boss fight, and cutscenes.
