Testimonials

“Kris Kirk is a wonderful musician and a joy to work with. Working with Kirk is a partnership, he’s very good at taking the overall creative concept and marrying it to the specific needs of the game. Visual novel music can be tricky, as it needs to loop well, add to the story, and somehow not distract the reader or make it difficult to concentrate. Over the course of Call Me Cera’s production, Kirk has mastered this balance. I highly recommend working with Kris Kirk.”

"What makes Kristin a fantastic person to work with isn't just his knowledge, but his exceptional ability to be open and his incredible want to learn. With those tools, he is able to tackle any problem thrown at him, which makes him the best creative person to work with. He has done so well and beyond in meeting my needs and wants for Please, and is such a joy to work with that it feels like simply having fun with a friend (the best kind of work in my opinion!) I truly believe that as I work with Kristin, we will be able to turn any problem into inspiration, any mistake into learning, and any block into insight!”

— Michael Lee, Creator of Please

Kris was great to work with! He was timely, communicative, and passionate about the project. I really loved the beautiful music and sound design that he created for my short film.

"It was a great experience to work with Kris. He quickly understands the mood and feeling that the game wants to present and be, and quickly came up with great suggestions that fit more than well! During the process of development, he helped a lot to finding the right tone for the game! ;) "
