Game music is an easily overlooked topic in game productions. It is one of the elements that is always there, but we never get to see it. Instead we might feel it, feel with it and because of it. A good game music can tell a story, set the mood, and even immerse us into the virtual world of play. Best tunes prolong the lives of games beyond the gameplay experiences. In this lecture, Jukio Kallio and Daniel Hagström talk about their journey with Fall Guys and what are their lessons as well as insights of creating compelling musical experiences with digital games and beyond.
