About music for Cogmind
« on: January 24, 2024, 09:17:57 PM »

All mighty author of Cogmind, do you have an plan to add music to this masterpiece? Recently I have been playing both Cogmind and Caves of Qud. The latter has godlike music that immensely enhances the immersion. If you ask me what feelings that music gives me, I can say: wild, lonely, eerie, and historical. I am pretty sure a game with a strong identity such as Cogmind can be benefited from having some in-game music.

Hi Jivya! Nah, I went full in on the immersion via ambient audio sources and just general background ambience. I don't think actual music is a good fit.

I play without music 95% of the time.

However, when I'm in the mood for it, I find this to be a good fit (if you approach the game as industrial horror, or something like that):
