Music

Hey all!

I just want you to know that I'm checking these forums at least once a day, and it's always so much fun
when there's activity here... As you probably understand from our activity - we are pretty busy - but I'll
try and make updates in this thread more often.

There will be an update here probably in the middle of November if nothing goes wrong.

Please keep discussions and questions going - I'll be happy to answer whatever I can - At least on the music/SFX side.
Even if it's not relevant to the game - post stuff in the "anything goes" section, so we can keep in contact.
I'm sure this will help you as you wait - and possibly make the waiting seem shorter!

Let's start with an obvious question and a complex question about the music then.

How many tunes will there become incorporated in the game?
And how do you prevents the music to sound repetitive to the point it becomes irritating?

I'd asked if the mp3 you posted before was modified or still unchanged.

@LUF:

The previous mp3 was an early version. The theme is much longer now

@Moonshyne:

There will of couse be a theme for all the races.
There will also be a menu theme, battle theme, victory fanfare, another theme for failure, overworld theme...hmmm
and maybe others I can't remember at the moment...

I'm working really hard not to make them sound repetitive - this is one of the key issues.
But as you can understand, there will be a lot of change in music as you play. The theme's will
probably not loop for that long, and if they do - there are SFX on top of them

Yarr! Even better! I liked that theme, but feared it was going to be cut because of the potential size the whole sound track could take. If it was upgraded instead, it's all for the better!
