Things For Humans
Jake Leaney is an indie game developer (Things For Humans) and pop artist/songwriter under the moniker Monster Mansion. He develops games based on the music he writes/releases, most recently the award-winning Halloween rhythm game 'Video World'.
In 2021 Jacob received The Creators Fund grant from Creative Victoria to spend 6 months experimenting and prototyping for a series of video game mechanics based on original pop music (i.e. radio-friendly music with lyrics).
He is now working on a sequel video game and companion album to 'Video World' which includes collaborations with K-Pop songwriter Alina Smith (Red Velvet, Itzy), and Dean Tuza (The Rubens, Stella Donnelly).
