Steve Pardo Music Appreciation Post

Just want to make a post to raise my appreciation for the gorgeous FF soundtrack by composer Steve Pardo. So atmospheric, one of the few city builder games I’ve played where I’m happy to keep the music up for hours at a time. If I had an idea to attach to this, just that I’d love to hear new tracks added to the roster and maybe in such a way that emphasises tier upgrades.

I concur. The soundtrack provides a perfect atmosphere to the cozy yet grim vibes of the game.
One of the few such titles where i never turn off the music even after the 10th playthrough.
I’d even going so far as to say that the music is probably the strongest feature of the game so far.

I fully agree! Already when loading the game, hearing this beautiful music sends shivers down my spine almost every time. Makes me wanna lean back, relax and enjoy the beauty of this game!

More is always better for sure!

However, Pardo is pretty busy currently on a soundtrack for a certain ARPG expansion. :laughing:

Music. First damn thing I turn off, so distracting.

I adore the music, but it gets repetitive after a while since it loops every year into infinity with no change. I’ve written a few times in this forum that the music should develop in atmosphere with new instruments and melodies as the player progresses through the tiers. Here’s hoping once Steve Pardo is available again they can implement some new musical ideas into the game. :slightly_smiling_face:

Hear, hear! I absolutely adore the music in the game.

That said, I do eventually have to dial it back having been through the loop just so, so many times. I still hear it playing in my head… it’s probably in there forever so muted or not I’m hearing the tracks as I play along.

Having more tracks in the mix, especially ones that emerge along with rising town tiers, now that’s a wish for sure.

Anyway, well done!

I really like and appreciate the music and its style! It’s very beautifully made and its relaxing to listen to. I only wish for there to be more tracks! Thanks for making such wonderful music, please add more!
