House of Dead Ninjas
A super-devious, procedurally-generated platformer...featuring ninjas, hosted by Adult Swim!
ROLE: Music and sound FX composer
Bomboozle 2
The brand-spanking-new sequel to the immensely popular Bomboozle. Adding new game modes, blob types, special powers, achievements, and dynamic music, Bomboozle 2 is a frantic step up on every level! Group like-coloured blobs together in threes or more for oodles of points, and use bombs to create carnage on a massive scale! Run out of possible moves though, and your Bomboozling time is over...

My Word!
My Word! is a word game seemingly in the traditional mold, but several features set it apart from other games in the genre. The unique 3D board allows the player to lookahead for the next incoming letters, and if they are to keep formulating words, they must manage the grid carefully! With a dictionary of over 150,000 words and a chilled-out style, My Word! is a charming and relaxed addition to the genre!
ROLE: Music and sound FX composer
Knightfall: Death and Taxes
This is the big one! Six months in development, published by Namco for iPhone and PC, and 100+ levels in size, the third installment in the Knightfall series is the biggest and best yet! We think so, anyway.
It’s a puzzle-RPG mashup involving tons of dungeon plundering, two very different quests and loads of fiendish enemies, with something for pretty much everyone. There are downloadable FREE demos of the first island for all versions, so have a try on us!
ROLE: Music and sound FX composer, story and map layout
Super Sloth Bomber
The island of Bombolia has been invaded! Bizarre creatures from a beached cargo ship are running wild and causing all sorts of havoc! Only the Super Sloth Bomber can save the day...by bombing the living flip out of everything. Up, up and away!
My aim was to conjure up a frenetic, eccentric and eclectic score to match the bizarre and unpredictable nature of the game. The SFX were equally rewarding to source, requiring some truly odd vocal contortions to get the desired result...

Knightfall 2
Knight is back once again in Knightfall 2! Help him to conquer an ancient evil in this epic puzzle RPG, set in a whole new world of monsters, treasure and adventure!
The folks over at Jay is Games were enthused enough to remark that: "bigger and better than the first Knightfall in every way, Knightfall 2 is what a sequel should be".
Once again, a wide range of music and SFX were composed inhouse for the game and its accompanying cutscenes - 16 original compositions and nearly 100 SFX. It was a blast to make!

The fifth Flash title from my current company, Megadev - The titular Knight seeks his stolen love, imprisoned by the Devil himself. Showcasing a new spin (literally) on the puzzle RPG genre, you must guide your Knight to each level's exit by drilling away the blocks he stands on, and letting gravity take effect! By rotating the entire game board, you can guide him anywhere you wish...
13 pieces of original music we composed specifically for the game, and over 60 SFX, 90% of which were sourced inhouse.

Time4Cat
A Flash game from my current company, Megadev - A stray city cat finds a mysterious time-controlling collar and uses it to steal dropped food during a busy lunch break. Use the mouse to avoid the crowds, but don't get stepped on!
The soundtrack to the game is comprised of a series of loops that layer up to comprise a whole score, triggered when Cat collects a certain amount of food.
ROLE: Score and SFX composer.
Finblade Ident
A collaboration between a fellow artist and myself, an animated ident for our current company, Finblade. My part is the Looney Tunes-style score, which apes Scott Bradley and the 'Twelve-tone' theory that underpins his music.
ROLE: Score composer.
