Music

How can music be made into a game?

We could go back in time and aid each composer in creating his or her masterpiece. We could use the music as the basis for our game design as in Tchaikovsky’s “Peter and the Wolf” or Rossini’s “William Tell Overture” (also known as the “Lone Ranger Theme”). We could educate ourselves about the different types of music, and in an RPG where we have several towns and cities, we could have a different type or style of music being played in each town.

The Tom Hanks film That Thing You Do was based entirely on a band that really only played that one song for the entire film.

Music topics to research include composers and music styles.
