I love the sound design for these tracks. Very good sound selection as well. Nothing feels too harsh or out of place.

Nexopolis : The Awakening Core
Lore:
In the year 5347, Nexopolis is a city full of secrets, once bustling with life but now overgrown and quiet. Most of humanity is gone after a massive disaster. The city holds the key to bringing the planet back to life through special core fragments scattered around.
Viroth, a robotic guardian, was supposed to protect the city but has become corrupted. It now sees everyone as a threat. Players explore Nexopolis, trying to find and fix these core fragments to restore hope and life to the planet.
Game Description:
"Nexopolis: The Awakening Core" offers a gameplay experience similar to "Nier: Automata," blending action and exploration. Players move through the city, fighting enemies with a mix of weapons and skills.
As players repair each core fragment, they gain new abilities. These abilities help them fight better, explore more areas, and solve puzzles. The more they explore, the more they learn about Nexopolis' history and the disaster that changed everything.
Players face Viroth, the main enemy, in challenging battles. By the end, they must decide the city's fate.
The game combines fast action, exploration, and a gripping story, inviting players to uncover the mysteries of a world ready for rebirth.
Description of Setup (Optional but recommended)
Setup :
Majority of the synths have been sampled of created from scratch using Phaseplant and some granulation.
Viroth was made using a zipper that I processed alot in PhasePlant.
All the bass sounds are made with my sampeld Ukulele that I pitched down and processed.
Most of the synth pads are also used by sampling either my upright piano or my acoustic guitar inside a granulator.
Lots of EQing, dynamic EQ some sidechain to let pass some of the bassy sound especially in Nexopolis to create a "wobble" effect.
