UPDATE #8: Saved by the bass
Good things happened this week! A couple days ago I was getting extremely frustrated from not getting any passable music done, and then I found the riff machine in FL Studio, but it didn’t really work either. Everything I got from it turned into either horror, scifi thriller or action loop, which are not really fit for my game. But then, from the midst of the dark, cold night of frustration and desperation a small glimmer of hope lit the streets, a bass loop:
This small loop awakened in me, hope that I could still manage to do the BGMs myself… And that lead to the creation of 4 other loops that are exactly what I’ve been looking for. Eventually I’ll extend them from 10 second loops to actual “songs”, but that’s still in the future. I also changed a few of the audio effects to better fit the style of the game.
Next week I’ll start expanding the map to the left direction and maybe try improving the code on the doors and the crouching.
