I might've gotten a little off-track with this one. It's more epic-sounding.


Let me know what you think. Did you want something more tame?

Ok, I'll use the previous battle music as the theme song (will be put up on the menu) and I will use that as the battle music.

Not everything is supposed to be tame. Just a good way to fit it in. So, when your fighting a wolf, that song is perfectly epic man!

OK, I'm working on a winter theme which IMO sounds pretty cool.
I'll post it up when I'm done. :)

Alright. Make it simple, but with more background to it than the forestside theme. :)

Alright. Here we go...

Forestside theme with a quieter piccolo/flute:

If it's too quiet or not quiet enough, let me know and I can change it.

Annnnnd... the first incarnation of the winter theme.

Like the other songs almost everything can be changed, so let me know what think. I can remove the reverb and echo/delay on the harp instrument if you don't like it.
I'm going to try and add a bit more complexity to it, maybe add some strings or something.
Actually, I'm not that happy with the harp-ish instrument that I used, so I might experiment with some other things to see how I can make it a bit less annoying.

The forest theme is perfect. :) But, yeah. Experement with the artic theme a little more. (But I love it so far)

And after your done with the artic, theres still a pause at the end of some of the tracks. (battle, and forest theme) Then you can do the islands (make it sound kinda tropical and middle eastern, with xylophones and such)

O.O

OK, I just stumbled across something during my experiments that I think sounds really good for the arctic theme. It's nothing special, but when I put it into the track it just popped and I was like "That sounds awesome."
I'll let you be the judge, though, since this is for you game :P

I have to go somewhere pretty soon, but I'll upload it later this evening or tonight.

Here we go.

Let me know what you think. :)
I basically switched up the twangy harp sound with a much softer harp instrument, added a piano and some strings.
