This entire thread led me down a long, long rabbit hole; I remembered the name "Descent", but I couldn't recognize anything about it in the online videos I saw on Youtube.
After hours of searching google, I realize that I was actually thinking about Terminal Velocity. Great soundtrack, fun game (although I never finished it).
- not_your_mentat 2y agoI only ever played the shareware version of Terminal Velocity. +1 to fond memories of the soundtrack. Time to find a playthrough on YouTube.
- jbm 2y agoI looked it up, and as I expected, it was a .mod format. My favourite soundtracks of that era almost always had .mod soundtracks (I despised midis back then, although I guess Monkey Island was an outlier). The composer of the soundtrack left a message here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6QkJtxu608 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G6QkJtxu608 > @kylerichards4410 7 years ago Nu music, I wrote the music to this game almost 25 years ago. You just made my night. :) Cheers. > @kylerichards4410 7 years ago Ha...it's really me. :) Yeah, those mod formats were pretty brutal on sound quality. 8bit and around 5khz samples, if memory serves. It's a little difficult to listen to the originals, so hearing your remix was fantastic. Again, great work. Really enjoyed it. :)
