So, we should (separately) state a theme here first, then stick to it? |

Correct, was curious to see how people worked under the constraint. I know for myself I play with it until it sounds right and sometimes end up with a totally different result. |
Theme!

I had a hard time deciding on what theme I'd go with, but in the end I knew what theme I wanted to go with! Adventure (RPG)! I know it's a bit typical...but I like it!

though i just have to ask - regarding theme choice. say - RPG/Adventure is a really really broad category. and if i understand the rules correctly, everyone has to pick a different theme (claim your genre)? or no? i'm not necessarily interested in doing an RPG track, but the breadth of that category - like a lot of categories in games - is really really expansive and would start to cut off options for people really quickly. as of the moment i'm debating between snes racing game or a horror sidescroller a la ghouls and ghosts. but im not sure.

More than one person can pick
BigHeadClanJoined: Jan 20 2012 |
More than one person can pick the same theme, and it being a broad category like RPG is fine as long as the song represents it well. So for an RPG I would expect a more dynamic submission showing off the games many natures, adventure/fighting/sadness etc. Compared to a horror/sidescroller I would be looking for something closer to Luigi's Mansion. |

what do you mean you'd be *looking for* something closer to Luigi's Mansion? because if i think of sidescrolling horror, i'm looking more at the influence of ghouls and ghosts, splatterhouse, decap attack, castelvania or zombies at my neighbors.

sounds good. i just wanted to make sure that once someone chooses a genre, you dont come up with what you want to hear, and if it doesnt sound like that, you would disregard it, somehow. ;)

I might try some horror-themed adventure game theme. More of an old creepy house theme than a zombies everywhere theme.

@Deiselc Well that was a pretty cool submission for how short you worked on it, can't really say if it sounds like Pink Floyd or something from Blade runner haven't seen or listened to either but I liked it. @Auirplane hah that's more of a plot then a theme but you should enter with that topic anyhow! You skip out of to many :P |

He mentioned his theme in comments above, but going forward just a little note in the same post as the submission would be nice so I don't have to scroll through the pages for it! @Kenor Great job my friend, I actually enjoyed this more than Dark Souls II opening theme which is playing the room over from me. |

@Deagustino Another fine submission and I really enjoyed how you used the bells, I don't often hear them in contests. Dark and moody seems to be the name of the game for this contest.... which suits me just fine in light of Darksouls II/Diablo 3 expac. |

Laame, I go 3-4 days without playing guitar and get depressed about it myself. Hopefully I have more time coming up to work on these myself, also great job feel like I'm playing EVE or Deus Ex. @DanteUruzu Also thanks again for the sonatina-symphonic-orchestra post you made way back, finally got around to breaking it down and figured out how to use it with recordings. It's going to make them sound so much better XD |

The opening songs to our most treasured games are something that will stick with us for years to come, they hint at what is to come and set the mood for the rest of the game.
Due date is flexible at this point but I'm looking at March 23.
Conditions:
Must be over 1 minute.
A theme must be selected (horror, fantasy, FPS etc.) and the songs composed around that, old songs are ok as well but you must claim your genre before a submission. I'm looking for something that will match your selected theme.
Please include what your theme is when submitting a song to make things easier.
---Winner of Tune Contest #56- Opening Theme is.... Tiger_Child!---
