Description
PS2, Synth, Botanica
The Biologist lives in a sad world : in 2500, the cities grew so large that no forest nor countryside remains. Nature survive as it can, like in this big abandonned power plant where moss and mushrooms made there home.
When he goes to study some weird flower, The Biologist is far to imagine that the most important journey of his life is beginning : for the Trees here are alive and ancient, survivors of what was once Sylva, the realm of thoses with roots.
Sylva Memoria (Memory of the Forest ~) is a PS2 game, that I imagine a little clanky and bugged, but with a lot of heart. A sort of ecologic tale for 2000 childrens, like Capitain planet, a little naive, but leaving sweet memories. My idea was that the "Songs of a forgotten World" where both the chant coming from the living plants of Sylva and a metaphor for childhood memories.
Music-wise, I tried to evoke an ancient world, aliens and prestigious, with some elements of botanica (the music style ofc) while using only synths and effects that existed in the 2000.
Forest Cantical - Opening Theme, The Biologist discover the Power Plant covered in greenery. He hears a sort of "chant" in the air but doesn't understand it yet.
The Three Sages - He encounters the guardians of this place, three giant trees (An Oak, a Spruce and a Willow), they teach him their langage. He learns about a fourth sage, who's now crazy and bloodthirsty.
Bacchus the Augur - Boss Theme, the final encounter with Bacchus, a big Ivy using his vines to control the technology in the Power Plant. For this fight, he got his "hands" on a giant combat exoskeleton...
