SKATEBIRD – PHYSICAL COPIES!
SkateBIRD has had a wonderful run, picked up the Best Music award from Nintendo Force’s GOTY 2021 Awards and currently sits as “Very Positive” on Steam’s reviews.
Writing the music for this game was such a blast. The feedback from fans and players of the game on the music has truly blown me away. There’s a new level along with some other secrets and an additional music track which you can stream right here.
LIMITED RUN GAMES
The folks over at Limited Run Games have set up a few things for folks to enjoy. You’ve got game itself, which has a regular version and an Amazon exclusive.
There’s also a SkateBIRD skateboard. Check it out below!
I guarantee you if I stepped on that skateboard, I’d break my arm and fall flat on my face in about 0.2 seconds. I’m SO bad at skateboarding. Good thing that Glass Bottom Games hires me for my musical and sound abilities and not my skills at skateboarding!
SkateBIRD is on a region-free physical cart for the Nintendo Switch. This is an open pre-order for a limited time.
PRE-ORDERS CLOSE ON SUNDAY, DECEMBER 18, 2022 AT 11:59 PM EASTERN TIME.
Head on over to Limited Run Games to learn more and order your own items!
UNREAL TUTORIALS
I’ve also been actively posting tutorials on doing various things in Unreal Engine. Since May, I’ve been using Unreal and teaching my Intro to Game Audio course at The University of Tennessee Knoxville. Unreal Engine is a fantastic platform that enables so much and gives even beginner users a ton of power. Check out the tutorials below and be on the look out for new ones coming out soon.
