Feel free to use this Track. You can use cuts or edit it your way if it works with your project. https://www.newgrounds.com/audio/listen/1363840

I'm working on a very small arcade tribute to John Carpenter (specifically They Live, but there's some pretty major The Thing influence in there too with the gameplay). It's pretty damn near close to being done! Should be out next week at the latest.

@Roverkibb spearheaded the game and has helped out with art, @TeffyD is doing music, @Dry did the sound effects, and @Paytonio is programming. I'm still holding out hope on maybe finishing Karrion 2 someday with Levi, but we'll see lol.

Hope you'll all like it :3

I wish I could make somethin’ for it, but it feels more of a “need to draw something” contest. Good luck and have fun though.


It’s a tumblr post.

Speaking of art and animation, I'm in the process of documenting and showing off how extensive opentoonz/tahoma2d is. Because I wanted to know more at a deeper level how it works and I'm absolutely certain someone else would make good use of it. Plus it's just in time for spooky month.

Cool, hopefully I can come up with something.


And the longest hours I've had in my life were the ones I went through to know I was right

So I'm safe but I'm a little outside, I'm gonna laugh when I'm buried alive!

For anyone who'd like some music in my catalog that is free to use (just credit!), here's some stuff I've written in the past:

This track is energetic, playful, and spooky

This track is slow and mysterious:

This track is dark ambience with beating percussion:

This track has some creepy ambience:

And last but not least this track has some spooky ambience around 3:28


Feel free to use any of these in halloween games or animations!


If you'd like to commission me to write music for you, please contact me through my business email: payton.petkus@outlook.com

I've got this spooooky vocaloid song I made last year! It's about a ghost haunting an arcade who will make you her player 2 forever! I've got an instrumental version ready too if anyone wants it!
