Toil and Bubble - Global Game Jam 2025

This project was created during the Glasgow Caledonian University Global Game Jam 2025. The theme for this game jam was “Bubble,” so the team that I was a part of decided to create a game about preventing a cauldron from boiling over by using potions kept within a witches pantry.

My involvement with the project was as the sole sound designer and composer. For the soundtrack, I wanted to focus on more acoustic instruments rather than synths and electric instruments, as I felt that it would better fit the tone of a rustic cottage. The sound effects used also match this, with the only true modulation being reverb to simulate the high roof within the building.

The game can be found on the Global Game Jam 2025 site here - https://globalgamejam.org/games/2025/toil-and-bubble-9

Below is also a short demonstration of the game that I uploaded.
