Game music and sound effects

Post by Aulrad »

Would it be more enjoyable it AT has music and sounds?×

Like you enjoy those sounds of dying aklebiters while grinding?

This topic has come up many times in the past and shot down each time as you would balloon the size of the download and would be a lot of work for minimal gain. I for one are against it as every game that has sound I shut it off. AT should be able to be played discreetly in public.

It is a very frequent complaint on Google play reviews. Music for a game is hard to do and expensive. I'm not fundamentally against it, but it's got to be a good soundtrack, with an open license, and technically easy to integrate (loopable, fades well to other tracks)...

Could the music track be distributed as a set of files from a link that the user can choose whether to download separately? If they're absent from the resources folder, the program could just continue on without them, as now.

Old thread. but the first thing I do with any game is open the prefs and look for a way to turn off the annoying music and sound effects. It would be a huge waste of the small dev team's time to add junk like that; leave it for the commercial games that are trying to be "addictive" before they hit you up for another in-app purchase. :-/

Me too. In fact, no music was one of the many things I loved about AT all those years ago.
