Scoring Shelter Games
The release of Shelter 3 is just on the horizon, and in the third of our posts celebrating its predecessors, Shelter 3, were exploring the musical style thats such a huge part of the personality of Shelter games. And to share in full spirit, were giving away the full Shelter 2 soundtrack as a free gift in our Shelter newsletter. We could all use a little musical sunshine in these dark days! Take a listen to the theme song right here... [previewyoutube=_Pc3V85_ez4;full][/previewyoutube]
The soundtracks for all Shelter games are composed and performed by Swedish band Retro Family, who work in close collaboration with the developers. Shelters uniquely loose and live sound began as a quest for a sound that would blend nicely with the ambience of nature says Sound Designer Josef Tuulse, I also wanted to leave space in the spectrum for the calls of the badgers. We came up with a soundtrack that was quite heavy on the low end and shimmering in the highs, where the voice of the guitar can express freely and comment on the narrative. In life and in gameplay, intuition is what being an animal is all about, and an intuitive, emotive approach also leads the musical composition. Retro Familys Ulf Wahlgren explains: Jokke is very good at creating sounds and feelings in the studio, so it's more about that then the actual instruments for Shelter. The studios philosophy is to leave the player to interpret their play experience, and sound design plays a big role in setting that tone. As Ulf says, The music for Shelter is about 25% avant-garde, I always feel that this genre lets the listener decide what it feels like. White noise will be beautiful and soothing to some, yet scary and claustrophobic to others.
Due for release in quarter two this year, Shelter 3 will see the series move from tundra to jungle and from lynx family to elephant herd. So what might we expect from a Shelter 3 soundtrack? We want to give players all the comfort of returning to the Shelter universe as well as something new, says Josef, Elephants are big and heavy but also gentle and caring. It's our aim to give these same qualities to the music
Retro Family are Ulf Wahlgren, Jokke Pettersson and Alfred Andersson and are also working on music for Book of Travels which weve also featured in this weeks Steam post. You can watch some studio jams at Retro Familys Youtube and Instagram. Wed love to hear what you think about the music in any of our games - what do you like about it? What does it remind you of?

Playing as a part of a herd, you'll enjoy the company of other elephants, large and small. Walk peacefully side-by-side with the elders, swim with the young, or delight in mischievous moments of baby elephants at play. Elephants thrive in a collective and so will you. Being in a herd means that you’ll be better protected against predators. You’ll also learn the wayfinding wisdom of the elders. But travelling together means there are many mouths to feed, and you must share resources and be constantly on the move to stay healthy.
Your journey will be scattered with magical moments as you discover new terrain and untrodden pathways, and should you choose to wander after nightfall, you might just come across one of the fabled Ancestral Gathering Grounds.
A Different Kind of Animal
Shelter 2 centred on a lone lynx mother and her cubs as they found and killed prey, now Shelter 3 asks you to explore a different kind of animal existence, one where motherhood, social harmony and inheritance are the keys to prosperity.
Like its forebears, Shelter 3 invites you to detach yourself from human matters and inhabit the spirit of an animal. Landscapes and fauna are rendered in mesmerising patterns and scored with an enchanting soundtrack by Retro Family, conjuring a magical world to lose yourself in.
From lynx cubs to elephant families, from the tundra to the jungle, from survival to cooperation, the next Shelter incarnation migrates to new territory, evolving into a bigger game world and an experience that you won’t forget.
