GAME OVER

We love them yet despise them at the same time. The simple melodies that portray a player's overall failure in completing a task. In this competition choose a certain game and create a simple Game Over melody.

I added some examples to help with inspiration. In some examples notice the use of the games original melody incorporated within the Game Over score. Though it is not entirely necessary, it would be something nice to hear within your piece.











I've really tried to be creative with this competition and I hope everyone will enjoy working with it, however, if it is not entirely successful then I suppose I can come up with something else. Just have fun with it!


DEADLINE: JANUARY 27, 2013

I'll enter this. I like the theme.
However, when you say to incorporate the original melody into the game over music, does that mean that we have to make game over music with a specific game in mind?

I assumed creating a Game Over melody based off an actual game would make things easier as well as more interesting. When I said incorporate the original melody, let me give an example: The Sonic The Hedgehog Game Over melody contains a piece of the games actual main melody. Super Mario Bros also does something similar. The Game Over melody also contains the games actual main melody. I hope this cleared some things up.

You've got me thinking of these game concepts I have over here that I have yet to produce... you've also got me thinking of a specific canceled game produced by someone else.

Also, Game Over themes aren't just non-looping jingles. I've heard looping ones as well.

The best way to get a sticky is to report your own topic and ask for one.

One that comes to mind specifically is the SML2 Game Over theme, which segues directly into Totaka's song, if I recall, but it still sort of loops.

I'll definitely enter this comp, I already have an idea :D

Well this is my WIP attempt. I still have to clean a fair bit up. I think I made it far too buzz-y.
I thought I would just post it here to get feedback. Again, I'm quite new to digital music, so help is always appreciated!

It's supposed to be a death theme based on the mimiga town theme. I included the link for that as well.

EDIT: Thought about it, and I'll choose New Super Mario Bros. U, specifically its athletic theme.
I decided to go for a bit of a mix of "EPIC FAAAAAAAAAAILLL" and "GAME OVER YEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH", which is... kind of like the original NSMB?

Don't ask me why I did this, but here's my entry. Also, yes, I did the entirety of that with just my voice. Overdubbing is fun :)

Mine's almost done, i'll update this in a few hours.

[EDIT]

I don't have time to finish it later, so I made it in a hurry.

This is for Kirby's epic yarn, since I loved the soundtrack.
(it also has a snippet of what would be the score-end theme)

Hey hey! Mine is finished! This Game Over theme is dark and grim. It doesn't seem to follow any melodys from certain games either. I hope you will enjoy it! :cool:
