Necro Swarm Soundtrack Pitch - For IGA June Challenge Jam
A downloadable soundtrack
EDIT: UPDATED MUSIC TO LATEST V5 REVISION 3 HOURS BEFORE JAM SUBMISSIONS CLOSE, PLEASE RATE BASED ON THE LATEST VERSION AS THE TRACK HAS SIGNIFICANTLY IMPROVED.
My entry to the IGA June challenge, the idea of the challenge is we had to make music and three sound FX based on a game concept, in this case a RTS game titled Necro Swarm where you play as a vast horde of undead creatures
I actually rushed this: started working on this with less than 10 hours of the jam remaining, first time submitting to something like this. Not aiming to compete for a top spot, mostly wanted to take part as a friend recommended the jam to me!
I made the Music track "For The Swarm" first, I would have preferred to have written more and longer music had I joined the jam earlier, but I didn't have time to write much so more ambient background tunes weren't really an option as I wanted something striking to catch the listeners attention. The track would make a good title/menu theme or a theme for the leader of the Necro Swarm to be leading his minions into battle. Could also be a victory/score/stats screen hook where the player could feel pumped while looking at the statistics of their performance (and yes, I am a longtime RTS player!).
For the sound FX, I recorded the source sounds as really dumb voice fx with my phone mic and voice recorder, ran them through a vocoder, multiband multi fx and a free dark reverb, mixed and mastered, and got some cool results. All 3 sounds used the same processing chain but the input sounds were so different that they all sounded unique.
