Nocturne's new demo is out and it makes me so excited to see how much everyone has been loving it already. After the team has put so much into it, it's just the coolest thing in the world reading and watching people be hyped about playing.
If you were a video game character, what would your health pickup be?
What makes music effective in a visual novel? I'll be speaking about music design and how you can use it to bring the most out of your story. Check out the VNDN Speaker Series for a day filled with talks on how you can really make your project shine and wow your audience!
I wrote this track for Ludwig's Tip 2 Tip contest. Had a ton of fun with it, and huge shout out to @joedifioremusic.bsky.social for the fire sax solo
I've been working on Nocturne for 3 years now, and its been so amazing seeing people excited for the game, even from just an early demo build. Everyone leaving reviews, streaming the game, joining the discord, talking at conventions, posting comments, you all make the project so much more special.
I wonder if anyone in the theater made it the full show without crying once.
TL;DR I am looking for a vocalist. Any shares or tags are greatly appreciated
One thing notably absent from this year in review post is Nocturne. I have been working on the game nearly every day for the past few years, and I can hardly believe that in just six months, it'll finally be out. Seeing all of the love and support its been getting this year has been incredible.
While this year has certainly had its share of ups and downs, I'm still so proud of the work I was able to do. I'm incredibly thankful for everyone who trusts me enough to work with me, and for all of you who took the time to listen. I can't believe making cool stuff is a thing that I get to do.
Got an amp! Came just in time for me to have almost no free time to play with it this week 😭
So much cool stuff happening the past few days! First there was a huge influx of new support for Nocturne by @pracystudios.bsky.social. I actually still can't believe how many people have been checking out the demo and leaving very kind comments. It almost feels surreal.
My Apothecary Diaries cover is out tomorrow, so I wanted to take a moment to share the incredible art by @camberdraws.bsky.social! Honestly, getting to see their work is one of my favorite parts of all of the releases I do. They are so great at capturing what I am trying to express with my music.
Featuring 30 musicians, this is my first time doing a wind ensemble arrangement! I absolutely adore The Apothecary Diaries, so I'm excited for you all to hear it!
Doing a little bit of recording this morning for @pracystudios.bsky.social #gamedev #indiedev #gameaudio #sounddesign
The fact that this is blue kind of feels like an affront to nature.
Always so grateful when I am able to work with @codymatthewjohnson.bsky.social and the team over at Emperia Sound and Music. They always put out such awesome music, and it made orchestrating their work for Lost Soul Aside so much fun.
I have a lot I want to say, so have a thread! TL;DR: I got a nice surprise in the mail today! I am very grateful, and thank you all.
Hi, I'm Jeff! I work in game audio, with experience in a number of different roles through music, sound design, and implementation. I also make covers, collabs, and other fun projects. So if you are working on anything awesome and need help with music/audio, reach out! www.jeffpenny.moe
I got myself a late birthday present. After working on my old monitors for ~13 years, this upgrade feels so good. Even if the picture isn't the best, they sound incredible. I'm seriously so happy right now.
New music! I'm super excited about this track. I just had this nagging idea in the back of my head that I needed to get out, and what came out, was this. I love writing stuff like this but rarely get the opportunity. Link in replies
