Congrats! And also I can't believe how good those CG vids are, they nailed it.

Draknek New Voices Puzzle Grant The Draknek New Voices Puzzle Grant is a grant opportunity for game developers from traditionally underrepresented groups and backgrounds who are interested in designing and developing puzzle games.

I intend to use my profits from the game to fund and uplift creators less privileged than he is. Iโ€™ve already begun that effort with the Draknek New Voices Puzzle Grant: grants.draknek.org

A tabby cat with a white tummy sits on a bin looking down at a black cat sitting on the ground. They are hanging around the back of the kipper smoking shack in Shelmerston, which is a location in the videogame I am Dead.

If you haven't tried Hohokum you definitely should!
I had the pleasure of faithfully porting the sound design & music for Hohokum from ye olde .lua files to a lovely fresh Wwise project (so that it's future-proofed!) and there is SO much fantastic audio design and music going on in this game.

I did the sound design for this and I've just been playing it for the first time in... 8 years? And it holds up! And the game's great! Go play it. The music's also incredibly quirky & delightful & written by the musical wizard Grandmaster Gareth (RIP)

Photo of Eli against a green mossy wall, looking at the camera. Text at the bottom says Nominee, Best Original Video Game Score, Flock, Eli Rainsberry. There is a logo for The Ivors and for Amazon Music - also I know amazon is a grim choice of sponsor I wish I can control that

Text says, Best Original Video Game Score. There is a logo for The Ivors and for Amazon Music. I know amazon is a grim choice of sponsor I wish I can control that! There is also a stone head resembling what I think the Ivor Novello award looks like in the background? Or maybe not, itโ€™s just a semi-sideways stone head with their eyes closed, with a purple and pink background

time to share whatโ€™s probably one of the weirdest (complimentary) news Iโ€™ve gotten, courtesy of the @ivorsacademy.bsky.social

my soundtrack for Flock got an Ivor Norvello nomination, which is a pretty big deal?? Iโ€™ve been nominated for an Ivor Novello, thank you Ivor Novello,

It happens in the film & TV world too. Oscar/BAFTA winning audio post houses sometimes take on short films for free to get their foot in the door with up & coming directors. It's pretty infuriating to be honest and does definitely undervalue the work, plus it's hard to compete with "free".

A screenshot from the videogame Hohokum showing the player character, a colourful snake flying past a bearded old man. The old man is called the Eye Monk and is standing amidst lots of statues of eyes, he is waving at the player.

A screenshot from the videogame Flock showing the player character flying with a large flock of colourful creatures through a forest full of giant mushrooms. There is another player character in the distance with their own flock of strange and wonderful creatures.
