He is currently working on “Bird Alone”, a sort of “Headspace” meets “Bury Me My Love” number, expect significantly more light-hearted. We talked about the inspiration and ideas behind Bird Alone, how his work is an opportunity for him to reflect himself and answer some questions of his own and how indie titles convinced him he wanted a job in games.
