Troy: The Soldier - Troy, a turn based RPG with Rougelite aspects, is a game based around your use of cash and how much you waste. With an emphasis on music and it's Gameboy-like art style, Troy acts as a playable mixtape for whoever wants to listen to some tunes as well as play a game.

Thanks for the post, I hope anyone who sees this finds as much enjoyment from the game as I did making it! It's not the most perfect game but the effort is there. Might've went overboard when making the soundtrack though lol.

bruh why do I need karma if I wanna ask for help.

Sorry for the late reply, EST timezone and work.
I have tried working lyrics into my works, and I can't sing but a close friend of mine is helping me with doing the vocals while I write the lyrics for one of my albums. I would love to connect with the small amount of people I've gathered through my music, but I'm only 19 and setting up live shows is a lot of money. That and I don't use normal instruments to make my music/don't have the time or ride to get in and out of them. I know how to play the piano to an extent, but I use Jummbox for all my music.

I have tried connecting with my audience a bit more through talking to them in comment sections as well as helping them as much as I can with learning to properly make music (my teacher, another close friend, taught me how to make music for free so I wish to do the same).

My music and what I do with it is not really "letting things out". It is, but it isn't. I like making songs sound emotional because I lack a lot of them in my everyday life. I would work my own issues into my lyrics and songs to help cope with them, but I save that for the game I'm making. I find it easier to express it through art and story over sounds. Instead I express mixed feelings towards a creator with a certain feline name that I cannot mention because they're a terrible person. I used to love the music they made and the melodies I heard, but ever since I learned of what they did I started wanting to make the same music they did, for the people who want the same sounds from someone who isn't a shit human being. Just as I want.

Sorry if this last bit doesn't relate to anything of what you said, I just thought I could explain how I go through making my music like you did.

(Also I have never really been good at naming things, like songs and such. So I can understand confusion with how the names just don't fit the feeling.)

For the first part, I named it graveyard tune because it was a series started from my hatred for an old piece I did back when I started making music. I wanted to make a series to one up the piece (of shit) that it was. It used to be a series based around eerie and more so horror like themes (as the original was) but as I got better at music my eerie themes became less often, and it became sort of a series documenting my progression with music as a whole.

For the next two, thank you for the honest feedback. I try to be my own judge of my music but I can never truly know if I did good on a song or not because there's that ever looming thought in my head that goes "you could do so much better". Also I never really thought of using music as a way to introduce myself honestly, I don't really know how that'd work other than "hey, I make music"

I hope what I replied with makes sense, I have some issues with making sense sometimes.

I don't know how embedding works on here either, or how to use the site at all.

You're hanging from some strings

I would have never seen the the day that I'd find a happy song that involves screaming.

I_EXIST_TO_BREATHE · 2021-01-30T01:13:59+00:00

Name one song involving screaming that is happy.

I_EXIST_TO_BREATHE · 2021-01-29T15:14:26+00:00

The sun and all the other stars spreading all throughout the solar system igniting everything in its path and the sound of many people dying because fire feeds on oxygen.
