Max de Kroon - Composer, Sound Designer, Developer

> hi there!

< My name's Max


Formally, I could call myself 'music composer', 'sound designer' and 'gameplay audio developer', which can sound like a lot different things?


Somedays, I'd like to think I can go by "full-stack audio mage", even if it sounds a little silly...


At my best, I can say I create sound that listens to you!
