Slowly but surely, Carnage in Space: Ignition is shaping up and getting closer to completion. You know what that means?
No? Go read the title again. I'll be here.
So yes, I'd like to start swapping out some of the royalty-free music (maybe not all of it, but at least the more important tracks) with an original soundtrack. So if any of you compose instrumental rock/metal/electronic music (not MIDI) and would like to help out, let me know. As the title states, I'm offering a commission on this.
Interested? You can start by PM-ing some samples of your work this way.
Alternatively, if you know a guy who knows a guy who might do that sort of thing, could you let me know?
Needed tunes (as I think of them and find good examples):
Game Intro Cutscene: A short electronic ambient loop to get players interested while they look at a scene in space with some quick exposition. Should get you pumped for the action to come. Compare to this song (but, you know, shorter).
LVL1: Plays in a forest where players are thrust into the action with little explanation of what's going on.
I'd like it to sound similar to this song, with mainly synths and electric guitars. It should sound more upbeat and exciting than the sample. This tune needs to leave a good first impression of the game's soundtrack on new players, so it should be catchy and have a memorable tune.
LVL1 Intro Cutscene: A very short (30s tops) low-key loop of a snippet of the LVL1 theme that plays before it begins for real
War Room Cutscene: An ambient tune that plays during most of the game's cutscenes (primarily mission briefing and debriefing). Should not be much longer than a minute. (Done)
LVL7: A high-adrenaline, intense industrial/rock tune playing during an assault on a shipyard/factory. The villain's true plan has finally come to light, and it's time to stop it! Compare to this song, but leaning a bit more towards rock/metal with the main part of the song lead by electric guitars.
LVL7 Outro Cutscene: Extremely fast, frantic tune (no more than 30s) that plays as you're rushing to prevent something really, really bad from happening. Compare to this song, especially starting at ~30s.
LVL8 Intro Cutscene: After the horrible thing happens. A bleak, hollow tune to go with the player's shock. I don't want to post spoilers, but I'm not sure I can get this feel across without telling you that this scene happens
LVL8: Plays in a space shoot-em-up level right after that thing happens, when players will really be in a mood to kill a few dozen things.
Should sound similar to this song, with most or all of the main instruments being synths. Again, this is a tune to get mad and blow stuff up to. There should also be a quieter section in the middle that sounds more sad than anything else.
