Description
The game is a parody of Cooking Mama about cooking hormones. I go into more detail about the game and each track's purpose in the soundtrack's liner notes (on bandcamp or the itch download).
This soundtrack is a multi-genre/postmodernist collection of (mostly-individual) pieces with a heavy emphasis on vocals. I am a singer-songwriter, and wanted to take advantage of that here. Lyrics allow me to give meaning to a non-existent game — where dialog/exposition could've existed. I used FL Studio 21 to write and produce it. My instrumentality is typically a combination of synthetic and recorded instruments with a lot of digital manipulation applied regardless of source, often focusing on timbre.
Message from the artist:
Trans rights are human rights.
Theme:
Tick Tock...
Picture theme
How does it fit the theme?
Cooking Caregiver doubly fits the theme by not only tackling the timer-infested task of cooking — but also by acting as a lighthearted & allegorical perspective on how trans people will go to great lengths to avoid waiting their whole lives for gender-affirming care.
