I could help with the music for some of the games.
I like 8-bit style music, but I can do other genres as well if you want me to. I'll wait until I get a better idea of the game's mood and style before I start though.

if you've ever played a final fantasy game ( and most people have ) then that's the kind of music we're looking at for Lost Demon.
However i too am an 8-bit fan and would welcome it being in our games.
Could you come up with a title theme for lost demon?
Remember: almost all videogame music is looped, sometimes with a short intro.

And this is why I originally joined and helped out in the first place  I can do both 8-Bit and then some...you need epic Final Fantasy like music though? Are you talking FF7-10-like battle themes? I personally think I'm much better off working on something of that genre than 8-Bit, which gecko could probably handle. Please be specific with what kind of music you want though. FF has many epic tracks, thanks to that musical genius called "Nobuo Uematsu". |

I reckon a title theme would be a good start. Something Majestic (Like the prologue from FFIV), then going into something dark/ominous.....and then looping back to the majestic bit again. |

I finally found how to draw a good drum wave in Milky Tracker, so I will be using some of those heavy 8-bit drums that you find in some of Strobe(if you've ever heard of him)'s songs.
I currently have a sort of creepy theme that you might put in a dark fores or something, and a kind of exciting/action theme that you might want to put in a cave or something, but I haven't made them yet. (at the moment they are embarrasing voice recordings of me humming and beat-boxing on my phone XD)

...humming and beat-boxing on my phone XD) ROFL I am a testament to that. It really does work. Save the melody/rhythm while it's still in your head, so you'll never forget it. Tried & true trick right there XD |

The only problem with the method is that the song never sound as good when you play them back the next day, probably because you were in a different mood when you you recorded the song to when you play it back.

Again, true. I mean, it was recorded and all, but it'll never seem exactly like when you did record it. But hey, better that than nothing ;D
