HOME ABOUT PICO-8 MUSIC

Reconstruction in progress!

Sorry, this was a throwaway school project! Wear your hard hat while we clean up!

if you're reading this, your internet must be slow

Hi! My name used to be here but I love anonymity!


If you're reading this, then you're looking at a website that I made in my final year of university for a course that had nothing to do with my degree! One of these days I'm going to go back and make this site a lot more personalized, less awkward, and with a whole lot of my interests and creative projects up for show! But for now, you'll just have to make do with my awkward attempts to describe the things I made below :))


When I finally get to reworking this website, this will be more of a personal place to put shrines and stuff. If you wanna keep up with the creative things me and my friends do, hop on over to The Red Dragon Collective to check that out.

PICO-8 Demos


Now, what is PICO-8?

PICO-8 is a "fantasy console", which means it is software that emulates a game console that never actually existed. It's often used for educational purposes and for programming challenges, as it is modeled after the 8-bit computers of the 1980s with a severely limited color palette, memory, and processing power. Perfect for making small games or wastes of time such as these!

Music


Here, you'll find some of my piano solo compositions rendered in your device's awful MIDI soundfont, along with a download to the piece's sheet music. Click or tap the respective icons to start or stop the playback.


 A Hero to Look Up To

This is one of the music tracks that I composed for my friend's animation thesis Player, Too. The original, like the rest of that soundtrack, is a chiptune track, but like I said, I have no power in this world.

 Crab Bagatelle

I wrote this because a business illegally set up shop in the apartment next to mine and they annoy me very much. They wouldn't stop trying to spy on us, so we started calling them the crab clan.

 Sentimental

This is the first piece of music I've ever written. I was eleven, and it shows. I cleaned up the score last year in honor of its 10th (holy heck!!) anniversary.

 Unrepentant

An angrier(?) reprise of Sentimental that was written a few years later. Still kinda janky, but also got the rescoring treatment.

 Wit's End Waltz

A waltz-ish type thing written after much, MUCH frustration in a certain class. If you know, you know.
