For the first time, Grove Keeper finally sounds like itself.
In this devlog, we head into the studio with composer Sam to create an original theme for Grove Keeper — our mythological RTS about defending the last wild forests from human expansion.
We talk about:
• Why we moved away from stock music libraries
• The strange reality of copyright claims and streamer-safe game audio
• Building a musical identity for Grove Keeper
• Recording strange and unique world instruments
• Our new dynamic overworld music system
The new soundtrack changes depending on which level the player is hovering over, with different layers fading in and out dynamically to bring the world map to life.
If you'd like to help shape Grove Keeper, we're currently bringing more playtesters into the project through our Discord server.
About Grove Keeper:
Grove Keeper is a real-time strategy game inspired by Norse and Slavic mythology, where nature itself is both your weapon and your resource. Command Guardians of the forest, wield ancient powers, and defend the wilderness from medieval loggers, poachers, and invading armies.
