Returnal released to rave reviews

A big congrats to Housemarque on Returnal. What a great pleasure to work with the excellent Gregory Louden and Toivo Kallio on this title. Jane Perry did an amazing job in the leading role of Selene. “Returnal’s sound design is phenomenal either way. The world around you sounds alien, the soundtrack always hits the right notes… and Selene’s voice actress does a brilliant job at portraying the stranded astronaut. I don’t think I’ve enjoyed feeling a game, as much as I have with Re...

Love conquers all with Haven!

A joy to work with the talented team at The Game Bakers and Side Global on Haven which is such a unique and heartwarming game. Janine Harouni and Chris Lew Hoi were excellent in the leading roles of Yu and Kay and it's great to read the excellent reviews!

The cast is limited so a lot of the narrative weight rested on their sh...

Amnesia: Rebirth

The first time I worked with Frictional Games was on the horror classic SOMA and it was excellent to work with them again on the hotly anticipated Amnesia: Rebirth. Alix Wilton Regan was fantastic in central role of Tasi and it's great to see her and the rest of the cast getting such positive reviews for their performances. "Tasi’s backstory and character is consistently engaging. Superb sound design and excellent voice-acting" - Metro "Voice acting is well handled and I felt as though I ...

Greedfall is here!

Chuffed to have worked on this Epic game with the inspired Spiders Games and great to see it getting such good reviews for quality of story, characters and performances.   "GreedFall just evokes narrative.

Whether their details are intricate or subtle, you get a sense that they each have lived a life and have circumstances based on the world around them. What makes each character so b...

Shattered State – launched on Google Day Dream

Great to work on this groundbreaking title with the fantastic Supermassive Games,  Side UK and a cracking cast.

The Sixth Axis " I was really struck by what Supermassive was trying to do here; create a VR experience the likes of which you genuinely won’t have seen in traditional gaming before.

Get your teeth into Vampyr!

Proud to have worked on Vampyr with DONTNOD Entertainment and SIDE GLOBAL which was released yesterday and is receiving great praise for quality of performances!   Everything is extremely well voice-acted, in my opinion comparable with the very best work from BioWare’s Mass Effect and Dragon Ageseries.  https://www.polygon.com/2018/6/4/17425760/vampyr-review-pc-ps4-xbox-one   …the actors’ performances are so darn good.
