While I was working at Tilted Mill, Sierra wanted to create another city builder, and we were ready for the challenge. Caesar IV was a masterpiece that spanned the course of Ancient Rome.

It was my best and most complex soundscape design to date, having thousands of VO lines and sound effects, multiple channels and real-time mixing including weather, battle environments, interactive / adaptive music, and the bustling sounds of Roman city and country life alike. I brought Jeff Seamster on board to assist with the sound design and dialogue, and he did a fantastic job! This was a really fun project to work on together, and our custom audio engine was getting really polished.

I also composed a 100+ minute soundtrack consisting of 21 full orchestral pieces. Universal Music liked it so much, they picked it up as part of their production library, which was a great honor for me. You can buy the soundtrack on iTunes (I make no money from it, Universal Music owns the master rights). A few excerpts from the soundtrack are below, as well as a soundscape demo. Delectus!
