It’s 10:00am, I am enjoying a morning coffee (Lavazza mmmmm) a piece of toast with cheese on top, and the thought that today I will be spending today recording yet more sound effects, rather than spending my day breathing solder fumes, fixing other peoples broken guitars while my own broken ones sulk miserable and neglected in their stands.

I am doing sound for a NZ indie game called Derelict. It’s a first person shooter, where you control five different characters. Which at first can be a little confusing but once you get the hang of it it’s very cool.

My very short retelling of the storyline would go like this – “You’re on a space ship, there are monsters. Kill them all.” There is in fact a lot more too it than that, but I won’t go spoiling it for you. You can download a beta copy of the game, and read the development blog for it at http://earok.net/. The current version doesn’t have any of my sounds in it yet, but I’ll keep you posted as to when I’m done.

Anyway, the coffee is gone so I better get started.

P.S. Portfolio updated. I have added some music from another game I have worked on recently. I can’t say any details about that game at this stage though. Secret Squirrel.
