I love it! It definitely says, "mysteriously fun adventure game." The one thing it does not say is ruthless viking on a dangeous carnage quest. Maybe you could add an instrument with lower notes in the background, softly?

I agree with Dudeman313. Sounds nice btw. Maybe also add drum rolls like in some Warcraft battle music?

I like that song, very atmospherical. Sounds like something that fits with a landscape :)

On a side note, here is what I mean. Maybe those songs could be of inspiration, but they use more instruments than synths overall, so I don't know if it would fit as well:

I think your (links/video/?) don't work, @Jokeriske ....

The video works, but it seems like youtu.be is not recognized as valid SSL certificate, so in your browser you have to manually unblock it. I'll replace the link with a full Youtube one.

Also I was skeptical about the techno beat at first, but as the song built up it sounded nice. The kickdrum used fits the relaxing atmosphere that the other instruments provided. My suggestion, though, would be to make the kickdrum so that it's less loud, since for that kind of music it doesn't need to be very loud, unlike actual dance music. :P Also, that guitar style instrument near the end should probably have some reverb like in the previous version.

I meant the song, but that was awhile ago. Isn't it finalized now?
Title: Re: Theme song
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on April 21, 2016, 04:47:33 PM
Yeah I was wondering about the game itself too actually and a bit about the song. I figured it might be due to Ben's trip but I wasn't sure at first. I hope this project comes to fruition at some point. :)

Nice to hear you got  a newer computer. Also Jokeriske did you make other songs for the game by the way? If you would like in-game music like the town music in The 4th Coming and don't mind if it sounds like Playstation 1 music then I could maybe help if I get some time.

That's the only song we have, and probably our last one because Niels is in university and he doesen't have time for making music anymore which is unfortunate :/

yeah we are still working on the game, but no music :/
Title: Re: Theme song
Post by: Dream of Omnimaga on May 22, 2016, 02:55:34 PM
Ah ok. Does it mean you no longer want any music to be in the game or if you are still open to any future help by other people?

Ok let me know if you ever need any. Of course, as I said, I can't guarantee it, but depending of how the game goes and my life I might get inspiration. :P
