I'm talking about potentially popular games with very popular songs, but your favorites are the least talked about from the game.

Discussion I’m making a game where the soundtrack is built by your progression, would that interest people who care about game music?

11 Upvotes

Hey!

I’m making a game where the soundtrack isn’t really fixed in the background.

You start almost silent, then your progression gradually adds instruments, raises the BPM and builds more layers into the music.

The gameplay systems and the soundtrack are tied together, so what you unlock changes both how the game plays and what you hear.

I made this game because I deeply love both music and games (obviously haha), and I wanted to try out a system where the player could have a more direct interaction with the music itself.

I know this sub is mostly focused on game soundtracks, so I was curious: would a game where the player progressively builds the soundtrack through gameplay be interesting to you?

There wasn't really a tag that matched this, it's most of (not the full) ost played in order of most likely to encounter each song in the playthrough. It's probably my favorite game music oat.

Doesn't have to be from Final Fantasy it could be tracks from Lost Odyssey or even ones he's produced to help with Chrono Trigger, pretty lenient.

Playlist We made a Spotify reference playlist for the sound of Seed-Walkers 🌱🎧

2 Upvotes

We made a Seed-Walkers Spotify reference playlist built around player states like stillness, flow, celebration, fury, release, and restoration. It ranges from YAIMA and deep house to Ren, EZ Mil, ritual music, and game scores. If you were scoring a regenerative mythic sci-fi world, what track absolutely belongs?

Request I composed a music that reacts to your gameplay for a shoot 'em up game

3 Upvotes

Beat Taurus, a cyberpunk top-down shooter, which has a unique feature:

Adaptive soundtrack reacts to your play.

If you kill more enemies and take less damage = Audio engine plays new instruments.

I hope the music will gradually build up and trigger the release of dopamine when overdrive kicks in. In overdrive, firerate get maxed out and salvo missile attacks begins.

I am still working on the audio engine. But the demo is playable. I’ve composed level one soundtrack so far. More are on the way.

I would love to hear ideas and discuss to make it better.

Discussion Which franchise would you most want to see get the touring symphony treatment?

9 Upvotes

It seems like a trend that I'm very glad to see catching on is the video game music symphony. The Sonic symphony was fantastic. And i'm very much looking forward to seeing the Castlevania and Zelda symphony next year. I was wondering what game/composer or franchise would you like to see get that treatment next? Or which one would you like to see comeback?

I really want Donkey Kong to get a show, as well as Xenoblade. I would also like to see a show on the various works of Grant Kirkhope.

Discussion What's your story with video game music?

18 Upvotes

I'm currently working on a fun article for nowplaying.cool, asking game music experts and enthusiasts why they love VGM so much. I'd love to hear your story! Feel free to share in the comments. I'll include a link to this post in my write-up, and feature some of your quotes (if you're okay with it, ofc).

For me, I'd say it all comes down to my family. I learned early to pay attention to sound; there was always music in the house growing up. Today, well, it kinda became my job, as I track new releases daily and listen to an average of 5 to 6 OSTs a day. It has become my way to connect with people, especially online, and has opened my horizons tremendously. I love how diverse it is, how bold it sounds. I usually listen to OSTs blindly, without knowing much about the game they're tied to. That's like daily mini-lootboxes. My dopamine fix.
