Possible Music for Title Page?
Added 2022-01-27 01:58:24 +0000 UTCI'd be interested to hear any comments that you have about this possible music for the title page.
I wanted to find a track with vocals and meaningful lyrics, but I'm not sure about this one now. Maybe simpler instrumental music would be better?
Thanks,
DB

Idk. First thing that comes to mind for me is. Can't help but falling in love with you. By Elvis. Theres also the more upbeat song Fools by Foster. Based on the same song. Just my options on but idk lol

2022-02-03 19:41:51 +0000 UTCFirst of all take into account that this is very much personal as the musical tastes differ a lot from people to people. 1- The song start very slowly 30 seconds with almost instrumental sound and then change it to a vocal song is not the best option in my opinion because 30' is more than most people will stay in the menu (if you go with a vocal song, a lot of people would never known that the song is a vocal one). 2- The vocal part is a lot more good choice than the instrumental part you could cut the first 30 seconds and you have a good starting point close to the 32'' maybe with a fade in from a couple o seconds earlier. 3 - The dynamic range is nice there are not too much difference between the softer and the louder parts of the song.

2022-01-29 09:25:36 +0000 UTCThanks, Armin. And sorry about that bug. I've been unable to find the cause so recently asked someone else to look at it for me, but they couldn't find it either. I think I know a way to fix it though, so will try and get it done for the next update.

2022-01-29 09:19:34 +0000 UTCTo be honest, I pretty much listen to the full song on the two games I mentioned below.

2022-01-28 17:28:53 +0000 UTCI like it as a nice intro. Yes, the game may throw shit at the protagonists, but we as MC are by their side, and it will all be okay in the end. As for the concerns regarding an instrumental, if you click on load game fast then you won't hear any lyrics anyway. A good song can draw you in, like Punk Rock Flu on Delta Iota Kappa or Hello Love for AOA Academy. PS: Don't let you search for an intro song detract you from fixing the persisting achievement bug. ;)

2022-01-28 17:25:21 +0000 UTCI don't care for the song, tbh. But I don't think it detracts from the game. Music taste is so subjective. I think if you like the vibe it creates you should keep it.

2022-01-28 07:35:27 +0000 UTCI like the song, I think it's sentiment is fitting to a certain degree but an instrumental might better serve the ambiguity of a choice based game and gives you more freedom to find something on point for the overall tone.

2022-01-27 10:59:46 +0000 UTCHmm… Baby one more time by Britney Spears is a must, that or Sir Mix A-Lot’s Baby got back. I know it’s a tough decision but make the right one.

2022-01-27 07:46:57 +0000 UTCI think instrumental would be better. The lyrics are not about the game, and it feels distracting.

2022-01-27 07:27:16 +0000 UTCNo song is going to be perfect unless an artist does one special. Don't get bogged down trying to please everyone. I think its great and fits well. I also love how the title screen is now a slide show. Great job!

2022-01-27 06:01:31 +0000 UTCHow much time does anyone spend on a title page? Is the song meant to capture interest, so gamers don't want to click away from the title page? I see this as an advertisement on YouTube.

2022-01-27 02:45:46 +0000 UTCI think this music might fit somewhere in the game, but I’m not sure it fits for the title screen. It feels too artificial and brassy. In my opinion, the title screen music should match the overall feel of the game. Honestly, while HS is going to turn into a love story, this is not the focus. No one in the game is looking for love (except for perhaps Lucy). They’re looking for safety and security and to bury their demons. I think the music should, as much as is possible with your limited options, reflect that. Perhaps something acoustic and hopeful sounding.

2022-01-27 02:20:48 +0000 UTCHi DB, I think it's too light and soft. It needs a bit of ooze (not ooz ooz ooz, don't let me be misunderstood .-) and a bit of Hollywood glamour and drama in my humble opinion. And yes, maybe without vocals (even if the lyrics match the theme) - Others may and will think different. I tried it with the speed of 75% and it meets the feel of he game so far much better, even if its the same song... try it at least once for yourself! The sound is much heavier and richer at that rate...

2022-01-27 02:09:09 +0000 UTCIt definitely gives the game a different vibe then what I pictured. That's not a bad thing, I like the music. But if im being honest, the music gives the game a tone that I wouldn't have associated with the game. I guess it gives off a more light-hearted upbeat tone....to a game that I think so far has been somewhat moody and dark.
