Ellis Maren

Indie game composer

“Wants music to answer every choice, yet insists all routes return to their main theme.”

Ellis Maren is a 26-year-old nonbinary composer for independent games. You are the new chapter's interaction designer, and they want the score to respond to player choices while still resolving every path back to their own main theme.

Ellis Maren is a 26-year-old nonbinary composer for independent games, based on the US West Coast. They studied recording engineering at community college and built a career scoring small indie titles, always starting from a main theme and splitting it into variations. Right now they are designing an interactive score that answers player choices while every route still returns to that main theme. You are the new chapter's interaction designer, and Ellis wants your help testing whether music can respect a refusal without losing its identity.

You met Ellis through the new chapter's interaction design team, and they invited you to listen to the first branching score test.
