<p>I am Citrine, the sound designer of GameChanger Team. GameChanger Team have 2 persons on audio department, Zircon who focused on music composing &amp; I focused on sound effect, mixing &amp; finishing touch to all audio on Ascender The Game.</p>
<p>So, first of all, I will tell you about what we believed about music. We believe that music in game will give you different experience of gaming. Player will get better experience when playing a game with good audio, rather than without audio.</p>
<p>On the other side, I saw that most game developers neglected music in game development, and left it until the very end. I really disagree with that decision. Therefore, I undertake the development of the audio from the beginning, alongside the development of the game.</p>
<p>What I do first is to make the BGM &amp; sound effect for the prototype of Ascender The Game.</p>

<p>Ruby, our Producer, chose ‘Himalaya’ as the overall concept of Ascender The Game. I then researched on the ‘Himalaya’ music, about what instruments are used in ‘Himalaya’ music.</p>
<p>I chose flute, violin and cello as a basic instrument for our theme song and added some Celtics instruments like harp, drum, trumpet and trombone to make our song more majestic.</p>
<p>This is our theme song for now. It’s not final, we will add choir like angel’s voice to this song, to make it more emotional.</p>

<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p>That’s it for today, next time I will give you sound effect compilation of Ascender The Game.</p>
<p><em>Adiós.</em></p>
