Prunty grew up in Scarborough, Maine, but now lives in the San Francisco Bay Area. He played in his high school band, and was always interested in composing music using computers, but lacked musical expertise until preparing to compose the FTL soundtrack. He also grew up playing video games and recalls thinking making music for them would be the "coolest job ever". He attended the New England School of Communications for audio engineering and picked up some skills he would put to use later.
He later moved to California in hopes of getting into the video game industry, but found work at Google as a datacenter technician until receiving the opportunity to make the FTL soundtrack.
He has also provided music for the following projects:
Gravity Ghost
StarCrawlers
Scale
FranknJohn
The Darkside Detective (season one)
All Walls Must Fall (one track: "Synaesthetic")
Into the Breach
Celeste
Photographs
Subnautica: Below Zero
