Unused Game Audio

Подробнее о видео

Advanced apologies for the atypical release.

I would like to share a collection of tracks I composed over the course of several years (ca. 2015-2022) for a game project that never came to be. This project had been around for longer than I have ever been "Forgotten Dawn" on the internet. I pretty much grew up with it, both as a composer and as an individual.

Game development is notoriously hard, and transformative life changes can occur in the meantime. To me, it feels like parting ways with an old friend and figuring out what to do with their past belongings. I have some wonderful memories associated with that project, as well as painful ones. I met all sorts of interesting personalities. I made friendships. I left some, too. It was fun while it lasted.

I left the screen blank because I would like you to imagine for a sec what the game would have looked like as you listen to a fraction of its planned score. As far as the audio is concerned, it's free for the taking. Just credit me if you'd like to use it in your projects. No need to ask for my permission.

I purposefully left every track "as is", including structural drafts and work-in-progress material trading places with finalized audio. Some of these tracks are game-ready and expected to loop fine. As an added note, please don't ask me for details, or to edit / extend any of these—I simply wish to move on.

So… Farewell, old friend. Thank you for the good it represented to me.
