Music
ZEPHON will include an original musical score of 60+ minutes. Weve designed the tracks to follow your chosen path and development stage. Early on we want to emphasize the exploration aspect of the game. Here we focus on more humble tones with an inspirational, wondrous feel, but very quickly its all shadowed by a line of the unknown--horror and survival.

As the game progresses, and you develop into branching Human, Voice and Cyber paths, additional music will get mixed in depending on your investment into a path. Each path has three tiers of music so that we can progressively introduce the unique sound elements of the path.
Weve experimented with a dynamic system of musical stems, each assigned to a path--think of them as individual instrument loops. Essentially, we would compose music on the fly to achieve greater variety and have essentially no forced breaks. The results were not great--a complex system with limited pacing options and underwhelming musical progression. Weve gone back to the music design with that knowledge and leaned into creating dramatic melodic progressions that both pump you up and frighten you.
Human Music
Going along the Human path, youll be greeted by electric guitars and marching drums.

Later on, expect proud, overwhelmingly militaristic sounds.
Voice Music
For the Voice, its better to have no expectations.

Indecipherable whispers, primal monstrous screams, ominous haunting voices and screechy strings.
Cyber Music
If youre cold and calculated, sharp and methodical, youll enjoy the digital synths Cyber brings.
