Had a blast composing the music for Forts Firebird! distrokid.com/hyperfollow/...

Unpacking is Game of the Day on the App Store in Australia and New Zealand! The game was made in Brisbane, Australia, and has many references to our hometown—have you spotted any? #OnTheAppStore

Oh, what is this? Is it @jeffvandyck.com’s and my talk? At #highscore2026 on Saturday! Thanks @musophrenic.bsky.social for helping us set this up🙌

Super proud of our team and the community for fanning the Forts flame! This coming April will be 10 years since we launched. We’ve managed to keep a small team employed for most of this time through thick and thin. Lots of cool new ideas coming too!

Very excited that @delverium.bsky.social is launching into early access on Sept 22! I’m busy writing a bunch of chiptunish+metalish music for it and having a blast. Shoutout to @andersg.bsky.social cranking out the awesome sound design 😊

Had an epic chat with the friendly folks at XVGM Radio 😊

Check out the new Forts Firebird DLC! New OST releasing as well 😉

I hate video editing so much, I really should have made a bigger song and dance of it when I finally made a new sound design sizzle reel last year. So apropos of nothing, here it is! youtu.be/Sl-NsxuDqkM?...

Apparently we can embed Bandcamps now?

💥Delverium Multiplayer Demo Update is now LIVE!💥 Check it out now either solo or co-op with friends! store.steampowered.com/app/3426800

Excited to share our progress on @delverium.bsky.social Major demo update on Feb 20th which adds by full multiplayer, awesome new art by @angus.coolan.games amongst a host of other improvements…

Thanks for the nomination @indiecade.bsky.social much appreciated 😊

Had a chat with Maddie for her article on AI voices in games…

All Witch Beam games are currently on sale on Steam! #SteamSale #IndieGame #Steam store.steampowered.com/developer/wi...

We're so excited to be nominated at the Indie Game Awards! We're up for the ANZ Indie Game Award category alongside many incredible games 💗

Hot.

Seems like a good opportunity to remind everyone that Assault Android Cactus+ runs great on a Steam Deck! store.steampowered.com/verified/250... #indiegames #steamdeck

Super proud of the @witchbeam.com.au team! 😊❤️

Unexpected but very much appreciated 😊

Hello again Melbourne! Looking forward to catching up with all my friends and colleagues during #migw2025 😊

I'm feeling quite honoured to have been nominated for the music in @tempopogame.com in the @apraamcos.bsky.social 2025 Screen Music Awards. It was super unexpected, and am looking forward to rubbing shoulders with some of the most talented Australian composers around at the ceremony.

Super proud of the @witchbeam.com.au team getting nominated for 3 AGDA 2025 awards! @tempopogame.com is in the Accessibility, Sound Design and Music categories. Fingers crossed, and congrats to all of the other nominees! :)

something I think is interesting about @witchbeam.com.au is we've always made our own trailers for Assault Android Cactus we cut 8 different trailers (!!!) which is way too many so I thought I'd do a thread celebrating our hubris! 🧵 #indiegame #indiedev

Hard to believe this was released 10 years ago! open.spotify.com/album/26deon...

Trying out this wireless midi kit and I have to say, I’m quite impressed. I left the click going so you can hear the lack of latency.

A lazy Sunday servicing my Space Echo. Replaced the tape, but now it doesn’t sound great, so I think I need to tweak the tension on the pinch wheel 🤞😅

Happy Switch 2 day! We checked, our Switch 1 titles run great! Assault Android Cactus+ and @tempopogame.com both benefit from faster startup times and look real nice on the bigger screen.

We're thrilled to be a part of the great Cerebral Puzzle Showcase on Steam—and as a result, you can nab Tempopo for ✨ 30% off✨ right now! Head here to check out all the games: store.steampowered.com/sale/Cerebra...

I put together a little “how to” video for @wire.xbox.com about the Melody Garden in @tempopogame.com Looking forward to hearing player’s creations!

Had a lovely chat with Gianni at Sifter about @tempopogame.com

So delighted that Unpacking is Game of the Day #OnTheAppStore in Australia and New Zealand! If you haven’t had a chance to check it out on mobile, we heartily recommend it 📦📲

Eight years ago, Forts launched with three developers, a custom engine, and a bit of hope. Today, that dream lives on through the community that’s kept it going, one match at a time. Thanks for being part of it. To celebrate, Forts will be on sale for 7 days, starting NOW! 🔗 loom.ly/SGqI63w

TEMPOPO music needed to be upbeat and cheerful. Composing forced me to be in a good mood for about 7 years 😅. Got my dancepop on, fired up the synths, even wrote lyrics. Recorded family singing, a blast all round. OST is out now! Steam & Bandcamp version have 91 tracks with extra instrumental mixes!

In 2018, @sanatanamishra.bsky.social showed me a prototype of what was to become @tempopogame.com. This was while I was working on @unpackinggame.com. 7 years later, and I'm proud to say @witchbeam.com.au has launched TEMPOPO! WOOT! It's on Steam, Xbox Gamepass & Switch! tempopogame.com

I've been working on @tempopogame.com's UI for the past year. It's been a pleasure working for Witch Beam again, and the whole time I've been keen to do some Unpacking crossover fanart. With the project wrapping up I finally had some time to do it! Check out Tempopo on the 17th! #pixelart #gamedev

🌹🎵🌷✨ Tempopo comes out in ONE WEEK!!! ✨🌷🎵🌹 Want to know exactly when? We've put together a handy-dandy graphic for you to know exactly when you'll be free to start conducting 🎶

I had a lot of fun creating a sequencer in Tempopo. Looking forward to seeing what people come up with. Looks like our designer @moonspod.com is having fun with it 😉

I doodled this when the tempopo demo was out but the upcoming release date got me to finish it. It’s out in like nine days!

Look at them with their fancy accessories!! This is totally a group of villain Tempopo, haha 😂 #ScreenshotSaturday

🎶 I'm gonna keep on dancin' at the... 🩷 🐴 🤠 🎶 The Melody Garden lets you compose music, set the tempo, the scale, and different instruments based on the season, so we're using its powers to share some of our favorite songs. What song do you want to hear next?

There’s one thing in our game that we’ve been keeping up our sleeves, and it’s a garden like no other… can you guess what it’s singing? 🎶 stay tuned for more hints! and don’t forget to wishlist: store.steampowered.com/app/318840/T...

Tempopo (the game) scales up in difficulty, so as you learn new moves for the Tempopoo (creatures), you'll have to figure out the best way to use them from Spring all the way through Winter. 🎶 (and if you want an even more, we've got challenge levels on top of that! 😈)
