The jam called for music involving the final fall of a hero like they are dying after losing a fight.  My treatment has kind of the minute or two before the fight begins and then a jump scare and then i went with a short battle sequence and an electric guitar solo reminiscent of when Flash Gordon in the 1980 film was being executed with the poison gas (unsuccessfully as it turned out) to close us … If you enjoyed this game, see our list of games similar to The Hero's Fall - submission for Weekly Note Composing Jam 5 hosted by emscottish.

Ballad of Midgaard's Finest Newbie, Edgar The Horrible! The jam called for more of a full album treatment but it was a hard week so I only have the one track.

The text prompt for the Itch music jam was "1000 Pigeon Army" : this led to thinking of Liszt's "St. Francis of Assisi Preaching to the Birds" (composed 1862-1865) for piano. inspired by the saint’s legendary sermon to a flock of birds, which often included doves or pigeons in art and lore. The piece’s delicate, fluttering passages suggest a mass of pigeons taking flight. The slower passages are … If you enjoyed this game, see our list of games similar to The Pigeon General Staff.
