Horror Video Game Audio + Music ComposerSearching

Music Composer
$750–$1,500 Remote

We are matchakitsunebi productions, a new solo indie game developer and artist/illustrator. We are seeking a composer experienced in video game music, particularly in music for RPGMaker and adjacent horror games. This project is a single job with the potential for follow up work and involves creating original music and audio assets for a video game. Remote collaboration is preferred and we are interested in establishing a long-term relationship if the initial project goes well.

The game is a fantasy supernatural horror RPG dealing with themes of chronic illness, religious trauma, and delusion. We have some background in music, but not a degree of polish or complexity that we’re looking for. Additionally, the game is deeply queer in its lens, particularly with identity and sense of self. If you think that may cause issues, please do not apply, though we wish you the best.

Any professional experience level accepted, with focus on small, marginalized artists and creators preferred where possible. This studio is people first, and we know that who you are and what perspectives you can bring to a project are the most important parts of compelling story crafting.

No AI may be used in the work of potential applicants. matchakitsunebi productions places artistic integrity and human creation above all other standards.

For interest and inquiries, message on Twine, or submit a portfolio/attached works to [email protected].

Budget range:
Small project ($750 – 1,500 USD), possibility for more depending on need.

Hiring as
For an independent, self-owned studio. Though this is an estimate for a single game, I'd ultimately like to develop a long term working relationship with a composer for future works as well. In an ideal situation, this person (or team) would be the primary music director for game(s), trailers, etc.
Hiring stage
Planning and researching. The game is still in early production, and therefore hiring will still be some time in the future. Interested parties should still reach out, as I'm willing to have discussions and touch base with anyone willing to wait out development (with no obligation or expectation to perform any labor until a contract is signed down the road, of course).
Work type
Single job, potential follow-up
Experience level
Beginner, junior, mid-level
