I need someone to make music for my game

I'm developing a game 'The Wrath of Cykrog 2: Cykrog's Revenge'. I've started doing the artwork and I'll be doing the programming. However, I don't know how to make music and even if I did, it would not likely be suited for my game so I need someone else to do it.

I'm looking for retro, adventurous and upbeat music.

Anyone who makes me any asset for the game will be credited at the end of the game

hello?

Hi, I've been making music for 5 years and would like to work with you on a game, I'm a certified billboard producer, I've composed over 2000 songs

(+1)

Nice!

(+1)

you can make tracks for the game! I'll specify what I want you to create

(+1)

There are plenty of composers offering their services in Help Wanted or Offered section. Though you need to specify if you want to pay them or not.

Sounds like something I'd be interested in.


Here's some synth stuff I've written

If you give me something to go off of I can make some retro synthwave type music 

(+1)

That's some really good music! It'd be good for maybe the credit section of my game where I show the credits! Most of the songs in game should be like intense

for now, you can make the main menu song. I'd like it really upbeat and intense. Good day!

Sounds good. Do you have a discord or something we can talk on?

the only social media I have is youtube but that is unrelated to game development I only post memes there

Hello! I think I can help you! 

I'm equipped with virtual instruments that are specifically tailored toward making chiptune/retro inspired music. I've been composing and releasing music for well over 5 years at this point, but am just recently trying to get more serious about game composition.

Here's a quick playlist of some tracks that may hint at what you're looking for. a mechanical bride in particular is my more synthwave example: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/7z19uLRLdCYQCYLJVmAjqC?si=244dabd42f334189

In addition, I just finished working on music this past weekend for the Godot Wild & Proud jam if you want to check out a sample of my work in action: https://cornbread-dev.itch.io/here-to-help

I like your stuff! 

(+1)

thank you!! A lot of it is mine own but there’s plenty out there that’s collaborative and honestly I find a bunch of joy in that too!

(+1)

you make some nice music!

(+1)

Here's a tune you can make for now!

Title - The City

How it should feel - in the game, you're basically just fighting off cyborgs and cultists. There's alot of commotion, bullets firing and explosions.

I want the song to fit the mood and be really upbeat.

(+1)

I appreciate the nod, and while I’d love to help make this track, I gotta ask - are you worried about continuity?


Correct me if I’m wrong, but it seems as though you’re democratically dividing your soundtrack among composers. Very kind thought, but might ultimately hurt your game if the composers all use different sounds/styles/approaches

idk man, i'd just feel bad by turning someone's offer to help make the game down

also ive noticed that every single person that has offered to help make music actually make the style of music i'd need for the game!

(+1)

Nah that's cool! And a welcome approach - just voicing concerns and you ofc don't have to listen. Plus, most innovation spurs from diverting the norm

alr cool!

(1 edit)

I can write a wide range of stuff, I'd be willing to work with the other composers, as long as we all come up with a general theme and a few motifs to share between the songs, I think it'll be fine. Could be a cool project

(+1)

Also @f3ralcat would you want to work on some stuff outside of this? message me on soundcloud or give me a discord. I'm thinking something like "blastoff" by trioscapes

(+1)

Hey! I'm taking time for composition mostly weekends and some weekday evenings but I'll hit you up on Discord! I'd love to collaborate

(+1)

y'all are good musicians!

I'll include you all, and credit you all for the amazing music you make

(+1)

after school, I'll give a few tracks I'll need for the game

this is my band, I also have experience with chiptune-sounding tracks, beats, etc. Let me know if you have any interest 

You make some fire music!

Here's a soundtrack you can make:

so, in the game, there is a cult that worships cyborgs that you have to fight

there is also a bossfight of one of the cult's overlord in the first level(subdivided into maps).

you can make the bossfight's themesong.

so, it should be a crowd chanting 'O Cykrog(pronounced: S-ai-krog) grant us your powers' and you just remix that into song thats really upbeat
