Is it better to develop games with a focus on making as much money as possible? Maybe we could be richer but it feels wrong. Our full effort goes into making the best games we can, deciding near the end of development on a price we both agree is fair - 🧵1/4

You have two choices. You can clean up some litter, from a beach if you live near one but anywhere counts. Please take care, don't pick up anything sharp. You can check for organised cleanups near you here: earthday.org/campaign/clean 2/4

Here’s a brief breakdown of mine and ’s approach to dynamic audio when composing for Seashell. There are 3 main audio layers in the game ⁃The randomised pad chords; ⁃The ‘melody’ (UI elements); ⁃And the diegetic ambience (waves) 1/8 #GameAudio #indiedev #vgm

Our new tiny game, Seashell, is out now! Take some time to relax and enjoy the waves while solving the mysteries of the beach - can you find every type of shell? 1/2

This is the most dynamic approach to music/sound I’ve ever attempted. The music is essentially proc-gen, some of it being randomised chords based on the scene, and other parts dependent on the player’s actions. The player essentially ‘writes’ the music #GameAudio #indiedev #vgm

Relax, make time for yourself, and collect unique and beautiful gifts from the sea in Seashell. "Learn about the creatures who lived inside the seashells in descriptions written by marine biologist Dr. Helen Scales. Gain research level badges and become a Friend of the Sea."

Pick up and examine your favourite shells! With experience you can learn their sizes at a glance - bigger shells are worth more research points, but that shouldn't stop you collecting the ones you like best! No time limits, no pressure, take some time to relax. #indiegame

I was so thrilled to work with on this beautiful shell collecting game. I’ve played it and loved it (and I’m only a very occasional and very choosy gamer). The shells are stunning and the ambience is super chilled, with cool facts sprinkled around from me. Enjoy!

Inspired by a day out at the beach, we made a game about collecting seashells! We even had help from the wonderful @helenscales. I learned so much and soon you can too 🐚 Hope to release 28th of March. store.steampowered.com/app/1829540/Se
