Sound Design performed using Reaper, implementation work performed in Unreal, Unity and FMOD. Music written using Furnace!

I love the recent resurgence of indie games with this style of graphics! I hope it becomes as prominent as 2D pixel art in the indie scene.
I refuse to believe that King's Field is a real PSX game from 1994, and not a indie meme game from itch.io that someone made a year ago.
