Games like Palimpsest of Fallen Hegemony

Submission to Impressions Mystery Jam #1 hosted by KaleOverlord for Itch.IO June 2025 Instrumental chronicling when Barozek was training with Krodar in Settlestone's Citadel area, before getting whisked away from Jord, later to return to Old Thalos. The loop end-point is simply the end of the piece, it is intended to cleanly loop to the piece's start. A streaming link has been provided below: …

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. It's decent length though because implicitly it's going to be part of that French jam that has to do with tabletop RPGs which is due in about 12 days (and which also kind of has the concept of a multi-track submission).  Due to concurrency…

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 …

Out in the wider world beyond itch this (release CCCLXXIX) is the first track of SebēšEšrā album that is not an Alpha Remix of an earlier piece from an earlier album.  In the sense of having a lead-synth contrapuntally darting around (and doing so effectively, and on-the-beat for the most part with very little flaws) this track could be said to be a remote spiritual successor to Fat Bard Contortio…

Two mp3's are provided the first is the acoustic draft with the piano. The second is of the same length and is the final layered version with synth voices. a streaming link to each is provided below: https://soundcloud.com/doug-stoothoff/moments-before-disaster-submission-for-wee... https://soundcloud.com/doug-stoothoff/moments-before-disaster-submission-for-wee...

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 …

The Broken Telephone jam series alternates music prompts to make art, and the winning art is used to make a prompt for the music in the next jam following. Therefore this winning art piece from BT-1 is a cute scene with a dragon-like animal and its human friend in a placid environment. I decided to go with sort of a bouncy positive sounding track, in consequence, rather parallel to let's say the c…

The idea of the game jam's prompt was to evoke a cave. Doesn't specify what kind, could be spelunking alone but I went with a joke that it's a D&D thing where the the adventurer is in the one place that isn't deadly and stuff is closing in. Gelatinous cubes in all directions etc.A streaming link has been provided below:https://soundcloud.com/doug-stoothoff/rumbling-cave-submission-for-weekly-note-…
