Want to compose for a Shmup!

[Polkritude]

Hey everyone!

Hope everybody is having a great year so far! I recently just put together my 2015 Demo Reel and realized that I neeed to compose for a Shmup! If you are needing any custom music for your game, feel free to let me know and see if we can work out anything! If you also wanted to check out my reel here it is! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BdYFzrPqO1E. Other works can be found at http://www.polkritude.com/resume


Thanks everyone!

Interesting. Pretty cool stuff.

The video mentions sound design as well as composition. Do you also work with sound effects?

Hey there, thanks for stopping by!

Yes, I also work with sound effects/ambiences.

Thanks for checking me out!

Oh you're welcome.

I already have two guys for music composition, in my game. One of them has been going through some stuff lately, so I'm not sure if he's still up for it, though. Me and my pixel artist are going for a kind of 16-bit look (some of his previous work, for an example), so CPS2 or Mega Drive/PC-98 style Fm Synth is the kind of thing we're looking for. I'm not sure if we need anybody else at the moment, but if you know anything about 16-bit sound devices, I'll keep you in mind as the project progresses.

I have absolutely no one for 16-style bit sound effects though. I'd be curious if you know anything about composing, say, sound effects that would feel at home on a Super Nes or Mega Drive/Genesis, or if you know somebody who does.

Of course, my games are free hobby projects that I intend to put on my portfolio, once I'm out of college. If I need to pay for anything, I do so out of my college allowance, which is not much. Most of the people working with me are doing so for free, out of mutual interests and goals. So a professional job or pay is something I cannot offer, at the moment.

I'd definitely be able to help out with creating 16 bit SFX. If you'd like, feel free to add me on skype at k_polkr. I'd love to discuss the details of your game with you and see where I could help out!

That sounds fantastic. I will add you on skype now, but would it be fine if we spoke in a day or two? I'm currently studying for an exam, so it probably wouldn't be for the best if I engaged in a lengthy conversation now. I should be free starting on Thursday.

He did some work for a current project.
Very nice to work with and created some great quality music.

Hi there,

I sent you an email via your website so just double checking if it went through or not. I'm in need of some audio for my game, Hyperstellar on mobile and PC.

Anyone need any music? Available to take on some projects! Would love to see your projects! Just finished up a great one with Altered Gene Studios! http://www.polkritude.com/resume
