Working on a GM game? Need music? Can work for free/cheap!
Posted: Tue Jan 17, 2012 12:33 am
So, let's face it, my family's financial situation is pretty dire and there's no sign of anything immediately awesome on the horizon. My parents have so far lost their fairly well-paying jobs and finding a reasonable job in Latvia is nigh impossible at this moment.
I'm looking for ways I could earn some money and maybe, just maybe... someone will accept my music in a Game Maker game.
I *can* (and probably will) work for free for experience and portfolio but what I'm truly looking forward is working for cheap. The thing here is the amount of projects I can try to tackle at once. The more I can do, the more money I could potentially get. I mean, if you have the ability to pay at all, surely you could give me a few dollars for a particularly nice music track? And then another one... and another one, too... please?
Here's my music so far: http://is.gd/xAUfE7
This includes everything I've ever made for the "Wonderland animation" thing by eee226 (you can find that topic in "General Wonderland Discussion" and I hope I spelled eee's username correctly) plus a lot of other music that I've made. There are 24 tracks in total right now!
I know there are composers out there who do this hugely awesome orchestral whatever... but if the game itself does not look technically professional, overly bombastic music can heighten the contrast and HURT the game. So I hope someone on this forum (or on a few others) likes me and my music enough to help me out monetarily.
I wouldn't be asking here, but our situation is getting pretty desperate and me and my family need to do something. So here I am, trying to do something.
