First off thanks for the time to check my post out, I am a often creeper of chipmusic.org but never really registered till today. Anyways, Like I stated in the title I am looking for some collabs. There isn't really a working title at the moment but what I code named it was pixel runner.

Number of songs required : 3-5 ( maybe more maybe less)

Rough length of songs : 2-3 minutes

Deadline : Haven't finished the game, but planned deadline is Q4 of 2013

Style or Genre required : pseudo-chip/electronic ie. https://soundcloud.com/chipzel (though any chip sounding music, I just need somewhat of a deep beat as to work with my programming.

Compensation : Well, as most indie devs come here and say the same thing I don't have much in compensation, though if you were to give a number per song I could consider it as I do have some sort of budget and I am also going to be kickstarting this so there could be something to go off of there. (also obviously will be in the credits of the game)


Contact information : Pm me here or email me at [email protected]

Game / company website : www.dopaminestudios.com

Little more background info on this game. It is a very fast paced procedural generated game that will be for PC/Mac/Linux/IOS/Android. Where mine differs is instead of jumping and ducking under objects you just move left of right around cubes, and can rotate the world around you to get out of impossible situations that are in front of you. (refer to screenshots) also the gameplay is tied to the music of the game, so the beat and frequency of the song effects movement of the camera, lighting, and other objects around you. Also to add that the level length is dependent on the length of the song. Therefore, if the song was 2 minutes long the level would generate for that length of time. As the song progresses so does the difficulty from fast running to faster to fasterester... you get the deal. I'll eventually have those playing add any song they want to the game so that if chipmusic isn't their preference they can listen to r.kelly whilst playing the game and it will react to his beats... Though I think the game would crash or something is r.kelly was used.

Why I need songs from someone here is that I think the overall feel is minimalistic pixelesc awesomeness. and plus if no one wants to use their music I need a few songs to fill the game with.

Plus I would like to get, if possible, one song asap since I have creating a gameplay trailer soon and would like to have something to go along with it. smile

Any other questions just ask, Love to hear the responses and any of those that are interested in contributing.

Thanks for the messages! So far some awesome songs! I know that some 8 bit/chip tuners guys here are also graphical artists as well, as I want to get some artwork done. If anyone is interested in adding that way just let me know also!

Thanks!

What kind of graphic design are you looking for? A particular style? I am pretty good with photoshop but I dont know what your looking for.

That is a good question, I am no artist but I do know what I don't want. Probably the worst thing to say! wink Anyways, Something retro but clean feeling, It would look nice with maybe a pixel art-esc kinda feel. But I'm am not certain. i basically just need the robot that will be running done, and maybe the cubes redone, although I like the simple look of them currently. Do you do conceptual art? Any suggestions?

Also, it doesn't need to be limited to just chip, if there are others that have a in the middle sound that works too.
Here are some other samples that fit perfectly with my audio analyzer.

Audio analizer? Is it alright if I PM you a track I've been working on to see if it works well with it?

Go for it. I am always tweaking it to fit most songs.

OK : ) Might give it a try, but I won't go over 130 for BPM. Is it fine ? As you said fast
