New blood-pumping, sub-thumping, pulse-pounding soundtrack to a Genesis / Mega Drive STG that doesn't exist.
Don't get ready, stay ready.
On April 7th, we set the 68000 heart on fire.
SILVER JAVELIN: An original score for a Genesis / Mega Drive STG that doesn't exist—a love letter to a genre and platform that are both near and dear to my heart.
Crank up the volume and set the 68000 heart on fire now!
A long-running project conceived as an original score to an imaginary STG (scrolling shooter, space shooter, "shmup" if you're nasty) game for the Sega Genesis / Mega Drive. Inspired by the games from studios like Sega, Tecnosoft, Toaplan, Compile, Wolfteam, Renovation, Vic Tokai, Masaya, Data East, Taito, Treasure, Success, etc.
I've recreated the hardware's capabilities as closely as I'm able to with the tools that I have. This was made over the course of roughly two years using hardware like the Yamaha FB-01, Yamaha TX81Z, Korg OpSix, and Korg Volca FM, as well as software plug-ins like Dexed and Plogue's Chipsynth MD.
This game does not exist, but its soundtrack does. I hope you enjoy it! I recommend listening to this as loudly as you can get away with
