However, that trend seems to have diminished significantly by Master of Orion's release which itself featured a (not so great) attempt at a more melancholy theme. <br /><br />Basically, the theme isn't "bad" at all, per se, but it seems odd to me that the musical inspiration comes from a decade previous the the art and gameplay's inspiration (if that is presumably Master of Orion rather than say, Reach for the Stars).<br /><br />Not that I'm necessarily advocating a early 90's adlib or soundblaster aesthetic, in fact a fully modern composition and production style can fit in an otherwise retro styled game quite excellently. I hold up "Cthulhu Saves the World" as an example of this.XenoBrainnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155975839837227856.post-32161841127208239212012-07-13T11:43:39.244-07:002012-07-13T11:43:39.244-07:00Here is my comment at the music.
At the beginning ...Here is my comment at the music.<br />At the beginning it sounds too militaristic, sounds like a marching parade with all the drumms background.<br />The while still having this all over marching theme it transitions into something I would describe as a song suitable for the credits of a game.<br />It sounds like a celebration song to me. Like yeah you saved princess peach and all the little mushroom guys are marching in a parade for you.<br /><br />So as main theme I wouldnt like it, maybe as winning song at the end it would fit.<br /><br />Id qlike to read what others think if it too!<br />I think for you its especially important to get some feedback on the sound part by a few more people, so I hope some of readers of your blog give you some comments on it!Sledge Hammernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2155975839837227856.post-85156737438952837452012-07-12T04:16:15.303-07:002012-07-12T04:16:15.303-07:00Tell him that the music must be as good or better ...Tell him that the music must be as good or better than the one found here: http://dvc.f2o.org/moo2/moo2.htm<br />;)Adam Solohttp://www.spacesector.comnoreply@blogger.com
