As mentioned last week there is the link to my Rising Legends SFX Alpha Demo. It only contains sounds from the first stage, so you will have to wait
until the full release to see all of them in action!

I will be attending EGX: Rezzed at Tobacco Dock in London at the end of this week, so if any of you are going, I may see you there...

https://soundcloud.com/matthewdear-1...cs-soundreel-1
I also thought I'd show a bit of a retrospective of my year, by way of portfolio pieces...

https://soundcloud.com/matthewdear-1...ale-soundreels
Heart Forth, Alicia - A beautifully made side-scroller in the style of old Squaresoft games. I'm still working on this with developer Alonso Martin, looking to release mid-2017.

https://soundcloud.com/matthewdear-1...cs-soundreel-2
I'm currently looking for new jobs to start of the new year, so please get in touch if you are interested in my services!

It's been a while since I posted! I've been having a very busy past couple of months, and the commissions have been under NDA. So I'm limited in what I can show you at the moment.
However, I have uploaded a new 'audio mockup', to my soundcloud.
I tried something a little different with this upload. I put together a group of sounds I've made, and created an imaginary game 'scene'.
I wanted to show how my sounds fit together when put into the often eclectic in-game environment.
Starting slowly with a few transitions and footsteps, it evolves into a full shootout with lots of sounds all playing at once.
https://soundcloud.com/matthewdear-1/sci-fi-scene
That's some quality work you got there! Good job :D
Thanks SirRandom :) Glad you like it!
I've just uploaded another Medikidz SFX sample. All sounds created as part of a new project I'm working on with them. Music to follow!
https://soundcloud.com/matthewdear-1/mkz-fractures-sfx
TWO new music tracks this week! Both written for my latest Medikidz project.
Both tunes are inspired by classic saturday morning cartoons, e.g. power rangers.
Medikidz To The Rescue!: https://soundcloud.com/matthewdear-1...-to-the-rescue
Medikidz In Danger!: https://soundcloud.com/matthewdear-1/medikidz-danger
I've uploaded something slightly different than usual this week.
I've been making some 'cave ambience' sounds for Infinity PBR. So I decided to put together a few of these to make an immersive first-person perspective, dungeon crawling audio 'scene'.
Wear headphones for greater impact!
https://soundcloud.com/matthewdear-1/cavewalk
I had a great time at EGX: Rezzed this weekend! Some big highlights for me were 'Bombslinger' in the Indie Room and 'The Occupation' in the Unreal Showcase. Definitely a couple of games to look out for.
I've just joined the team for upcoming first-person, story-driven action adventure 'Unknown Fate'. We'll be working on something a little special over the next couple of weeks, so watch this space...
