While we're waiting on pre-prod to wrap on our current project we'd love to work on an indie game or game jam. If you're doing a jam, please reach out to us!

Did you lose your safety?
Guaranteed by the roots of your family tree
Soil so fertile, centuries decomposing
Fruits of the labor and pain of ebony bodies
Couldn’t be me… couldn’t be me…

given the current state of things, I’d like to talk about the this track in particular

Two things are constant in the development in this studio:

1. We will always be by and for queer folks first and foremost.

2. As we attempt to branch out into other media and genres we will always be asked to make music for depressed gay people, so you can count on us to deliver The Feels.

Hi friends! Are any of you interested in group or one-on-one composition lessons? Do you want to learn how to make music happen but you're struggling to find your voice?

We're looking to gauge how much demand there is and prepare accordingly. Please let us know which you're interested in!

We backed it, and we would love y'all to check this out and back it as well if you're able!

negative steam review:
Scripted death right in the beginning of the game, no way to avoid, no way to remove the 'achievement' stain from your play history when it happens

And the game dev and their crony community call this 'a pivotal part of gameplay mechanics' and not what it actually is, a direct, coded betrayal of player trust.

Why should I bother investing any further time in this title when the dev just seems comfortable arbitrarily killing you whenever with no recourse to fit their childish metaexamination of savegame mechanics? Life is too short to be a script kiddie's emotional punching bag.

Even worse I have no idea how many more 'omg you died teehee' little moments and 'achievements' they've created to litter my profile with unerasable proof of failure.

But since the art is pretty and it's about friends, everyone will just ignore how emotionally abusive insertdisc5 is and how casually they just dismiss all criticism

Last and most bitter to me, the game is paced that you don't get the gutpunch till JUUUUST after the refund window. I kind of feel that was deliberate on the dev's part to even more severely punish people like me who don't enjoy being railroaded into character death.

Toby Fox did the same motherloving thing with their ;uwu omg toriel scripted crit,; and the community defended his abusive actions then just as I expect insertdisc5's will do here.

I am so motherloving tired of indie game devs being emotionally abusive and calling it cheeky fun

A good friend just DMed me to ask if I heard the track in Deltarune ch4 with the weird time signature and I just cracked up laughing.

(This has become far too inside-baseball to explain, but I hope some of y'all got it.)

(Also I'm playing chapter 4 today so hopefully I'll hear it soon.)

Oh hey Happy Pride, y'all!
Support queer artists!
(It us. Support us.)

Remember, listening to music by queer artists can in fact turn you gay, and if you play our music backwards you'll hear a lovely recipe for vegan chili.

Going to start doing weekly Twitch streams on Wednesdays starting at 6pm Pacific. We're going to be talking about sound design, music theory, and plenty of other silly things!

Trying to save up for some new equipment but things are starting to get tight since relocating.

Streaming and buying our albums helps a bunch, and there are links to support us directly on our Linktree in our bio.

I would just like to point out that while I (Lindar) have had an obsession with weird time signatures for YEARS it really started to get out of hand when I discovered @adamneely.bsky.social / Sungazer and realized you can do more than 5 or 7. (Hence "The House" being in 15.)

((Go listen to them!))

Real conversation in the studio today:

Lindar: You could do a bang in 7.
Wendy: 7 is tricky for me. I'm better in 5.
Lindar: If 5 is just a silly 3 then 7 is just a silly 4.

We are presently looking for performing musicians in the Oakland / San Francisco area, as well as studio musicians for future projects. This is paid work, so if you or someone you know might be interested, please reach out!

Not many folks showed up and that's totally okay. The video should be up on YouTube for anyone who wants to hear rants about time signatures and chord voicings when playing with distortion.

Turn off HDR and any kind of upscaling/framegen and it's janky but playable.
