Intense Region Music! | Patreon Weekly #221
🕑 Added 2023-08-28 15:01:01 +0000 UTCHey Patrons, in this weekly I’m going to share some upcoming new music for the game that was previously shared in Shattered Secrets #26!
This weekly also includes an audio Q&A! The formatting is a bit different this week thanks to also having audio in the regular weekly. The Q&A starts at 11:00, and you can find audio timestamps at the end of this weekly.
More Music!
Since he finished up some work on Black Reliquary a couple month ago, Kristjan and I have been talking about adding some more new music to Shattered!
Since Kristjan’s original new music was added, Shattered now has a proper ascension challenge and work is starting on new quests. We decided to focus on ascension first, which led to the five tracks attached to this post, one for each region!
Quite quickly I realized that it would be nice to use these tracks in more cases, so we’re currently leaning toward calling them ‘intense’ tracks or similar, rather than ‘ascension’. In addition to ascension, they might play during specific quest moments, or perhaps will replace the regular music when the player has challenges enabled.
I’m not showing them off here just yet, but there are also extensions being added to the game’s region tracks and the tracks for the later 3 bosses! You can expect more musical variety when playing through the dungeon normally, and some unique music will play when DM-300, DK, and Yog are on their last legs.
Audio Timestamps
This month there was 10 questions from 5 different Patrons.
- 11:09 "What's the most possible keys that can be generated on a floor? I think it's 8? That's the most I've ever seen anyways" - Chewyou
- 12:44 "which damaging items would be the most/least painful to get hit by?" - radiantchaos
- 13:20 "Cursed weapons/armor force the player to deal with an inconvenient change to play style. Cursed Rings/artifacts, on the other hand, are just bad and need to be cleansed asap. Have you toyed with any alternate ideas for cursed rings/artifacts or are you pretty happy with how they are at the moment?" - 1-800-thewolf
- 16:09 "are you able to tell us if the upcoming cleric will have any religious symbols which are connected to any real-world religion, or will they be related to one you come up with/another fantasy religion?" - radiantchaos
- 17:50 "mrrpt meow mrrnya? :3 (TL: How was your day?)" - Depresbian
- 19:14 "what do the monsters of each region do when there's no fighting with the player happening?" - radiantchaos

- 20:41 "Does/will Shattered PD have a canonical ending? Do all 6 heroes enter the dungeon and only one comes back with the amulet? Is there some kind of time loop (time rewinding when the amulet is used) allowing every hero to succeed? Or will this be always left unexplained/ambiguous?" - Fcelon
- 22:47 "whats your greatest piece of life advice?" - radiantchaos
- 24:37 "probably already asked a million times but whats your music taste? any creators/bands/genres?" - Hubertouz
