Music Made with Music Tools
Well, I’m not quite happy with my music loop yet, but it’s close. I’m using Musagi to generate my music. It’s a very useful little tool, though it has a bit of a learning curve. Need to dig out my three button mouse for it though tomorrow.
I’ve also used his Sfxr program as mentioned in a prior post for my sound effects. Along with a base of Python + PyGame for my programming. It’s 361 lines of codes and few external files for the images, sounds, and music track. I’m pretty sure I’m all done now, but I’m going to get some sleep, work out my music a bit more tomorrow, and I’ll post my final version then.
In the meantime feel free to listen to my first complete attempt at Musagi here (ogg). And the screen shot of my updated menu with updated instructions:
Actually you could try lowering the volume of those, to keep them from being so prominent. They would probably be better suited as a faint background sound with the long dark notes being most dominant.
Remember to play around with different instruments as well, you can reload an instrument without destroying the parts of the song which use it (although I recommend keeping backups of the song just in case :))
