Fred Brooker

Fred Brooker, real name Filip Oščádal (born 1974 in Brno), founder of HMC GAMES (formerly HERO MUSIC COMPANY), is a Brno icon of the retro gaming scene with more than thirty years of experience in creating sfx, music and game development. His creative imprint is carried by a number of cult titles, including games such as Fish Fillets, Vietcong, Flying Heroes and others. With a passion for sound, detail and innovation, he constantly pushes the boundaries of indie game development within HMC GAMES. His driving force is the constant desire to experiment and find new creative paths in game development.

In 2017, he helped found the cloud company GS Cloud Ltd., which provides XaaS services. In his free time, he programs PWA apps in PHP and JavaScript, learning Golang now.

For his sound creation, he likes to use synthesizers and samplers such as Dexed, Vital, Zebralette, Triple Cheese, Podolski, Decent Sampler or the hybrid analog Kobol Expander, all from the operating system Ubuntu Linux.
