Cell Phone Games - part 2

7:22 am Singles, Video Game Music

Here are four other soundtracks for cell phone games. I was limited to a 5k midi file and about 30 seconds. The other limitation, of course, was the midi sounds themselves, which don’t really sound like the instruments they’re supposed to model. But most disadvantages can be flipped around to benefit you, if you find the right leverage point, and so I realized that midi sounds are just, well, “video-gamey” pretty much no matter what you do.

But really, it was a lovely and enjoyable challenge, trying to fit emotion into a thirty second loop.

In this one you’re a cool bird in a train cart (who knows why), launching from a ramp to see how far you can fly.

This one involves smacking flies with a swatter.

This is a sad one. You’ve got to jump from a freeway overpass and try to land in people’s cars to score rides. It involves a lot of landing splat right behind people’s cars.

And this is a golf game, where you practice your putting.

More and better video game music coming soon!
