Yeah I also searched for that, and considered how difficult it would be to write a simple one myself. Never got around to it though

Pretty intense run! It's been a few years since I proper played THOTH - what a strange artsy arcade game that became 😅 Both THOTH and 140 is 40% off on your new Switch. www.nintendo.com/us/store/pro...

That Fletch soundtrack is a deep cut! I remember listening to that when it came out

You welcome! They are coded from scratch in C++. I'm not using any third party code except JSON parsing and imgui/SDL for the standalone test app. I'm using Visual Studio as IDE.

Yes, and it actually got applause from the GDC audience! 😅 I haven't published those videos anywhere yet though. Maybe I could put them on my YouTube channel

🎶 Yesterday I got to perform 'Green in Green' and 'Spheres' from the COCOON soundtrack at Day of the Devs!!! with visuals by Mikkel Svendsen based on Erwin Kho's amazing worlds. The first 3 mins were 100% real-time generated using my own homemade synths. youtu.be/9-76ZC6pT38
