The first title song I was going to use for Paddelnoid. One of the first things I ever did with Cubase and Retrologue. Still like it. But it's probably a bit too melancholic for a game title screen. #gamedev #OriginalMusic

A piece of music can be good and still promise the wrong mood for the title screen. That's probably a painful cut when it's one of the first things you made for the game. Maybe it just belongs somewhere else in Paddlenoid.

Nah.. Personally I like it because it represents something. I surprised myself making it because I have very little musical experience. But as a whole I think it's too 'minor key' to be really useful. It's so severe that I find it hard to pin to any scene where it would fit perfectly.

That makes sense. It can be something worth keeping because it represents an achievement, even if it never finds a home in the finished game. Not everything meaningful from development has to become a shipped asset.
