Re: game music
Thanks for the input guys. I see what you mean about the transitions being too abrupt/clunky. I'm a bit limited since I want this to be a ~1:00 piece that's loop-able, so I can't be too subtle with changes or have gradual, epic build-ups like 65daysofstatic (or other such post-rock/electronic/experimental groups... which I… -
Re: IF you had to choose
Buy Unreal Tournament 3, Crysis, and The Orange Box (as they all ship with level design tools). Pick whichever engine you like the most. Join the respective Mod-Making communities.
