My Work

I composed the main theme for the game, which is playing as you enter the game, explore maps, upgrade units, etc. In composing the theme I focused on creating a strong sense of movement with a heavy percussion session and a millitary-march-type snare. On top of this I layered heroic horns playing a strong melody supported by spiccato strings keeping the rhythmic flow and topped with choir and sweeping flautando strings to fill out the high frequency range. Employing my own voice for shouting and doing low ominous choir as well as finding some weird flute and horns samples also helped in establishing the ancient medieval fantasy feeling.

Production

The game is developed by the Danish game company SimpleBit Studios, who also developed the succesful mobile game Trench Warfare 1917.
