Akira Yamaoka games

Only counting stuff he actually worked on in some capacity, not 'was inspired by' credits
Will note where his credited role is something that isn't adjacent to 'he composed the music on this'

"Sound Director"
This is what he's credited as on all these Grasshopper games. Fair to assume from the lack of anyone else having sound team credits on these games he just did the music + sound design

He's only credited as 'Special Thanks' and David García Díaz is credited as composer with no Yamaoka's name nowhere on the OST release, but the game's director said he would be doing the OST (https://www.gematsu.com/2013/08/rime-all-about-light-says-creative-director) so I don't know. Maybe it was planned but just never happened
