Hi mass exodus! Im a freelancer composer/sound designer (Venba,Eternights, Six Ages, Playdate and more). I talk about game OST marketability and how to get your $$$ + tips on networking as a loner! I also helped launch a Palestinian Charity Album just 2 weeks ago and it's on bandcamp (go buy!!)

OK, for a thing I'm working on I've been thinking a lot about this question recently. **Why keep making video games in a world on fire?** If that’s been on your mind too, and you’re open to talking about it, please feel free to reach out - either here or at [email protected]

We're down to the last 1.5 hours of the Games for Palestine charity. If you've not yet picked up nearly 400 incredible indie games and experiences, and support a good cause while you're at it, now's your chance
