Description
Without music, magic is rapidly fading from the fae woods. However, there are songs forgotten by time, carved into the trees in the deepest parts of the woods, the parts that you are forbidden from entering. However, desperate times call for desperate measures, and you've gotta do what you've gotta do. You must travel deep into the woods, facing dangers and perils long since forgotten, and bring music back to the fae woods.

Our soundtrack is a mix of orchestral songs with folky, ambient elements. We wanted to capture the mystical folky elements with the use of harps and choirs, which make appearances in all three tracks. We also experimented with different time signatures and odd chord progressions to capture this otherworldly, alien feeling. The first track, Journey into the Darkness, has an upbeat rock drum groove that signifies the hopefullness at the start of the adventure, which the drum and choir bridge of the song signifing the dangers that await. The second track, Alien Woods, is an ambient, otherworldly, and kind of creepy track, giving the player the feeling that they are in a complelety foreign and alien part of the woods that they thought they knew well. The final track, the Eyes of Time, is a dark and meloncholic orchestral song, marking the player's arrival at the oldest and darkest center of the woods.

Message from the artist
Thanks for listening! We're glad that we found the time to participate again in one of Lone Rabbit's jams, and we hope to do lots more!

Songs of a Forgotten World

Picture theme

How does it fit the theme?
The image inspired us with the idea for the game, and we used the folky instruments from the image in our compositions. A "forgotten world" conjures ideas of alien soundscapes and mysteries, which we incorporated into our songs.
