Chaos Chronicles Music Samples Released

Information on Chaos Chronicles, Coreplay’s upcoming party-based RPG, continue to leak out. Following the trailer released a few days ago, the developer has decided to grace our ears with some music samples from the game, as well as discuss their ambitious efforts with the game’s soundtrack.

Music is a very subliminal way to manipulate the mood of the player. Especially in videogames it can affect the mood in so many ways. And that’s why we not only have a look at the graphics but also on the music (and on the sound effects, as you already know). We’ve given and we will give a lot of attention to the creation of the music for Chaos Chronicles.

Currently we are working on the different combat themes. You’re eyes aren’t foolin’ you: To achieve a deep atmosphere here we decided to not only have one, but several themes. We had the feeling that the players feeling should differ if he (or she) is fighting against different types of opponents. So we made the decision to go for unique themes for each type of enemy.

An example: Skeletons are different from human knights. They do not only look different, they do not only fight different, no, they also have to sound different. And you need another atmosphere for both of them. Or think about goblins vs. a diabolic demon. Shouldn’t be the same theme, should it?

Head on over to the Chaos Chronicles site to find the full post, as well as the soundtrack previews, which cover a variety of battle themes for different types of enemies.
