Renegade

Pad Lyfe 2

Music inspired by the theme: "Wish upon a star" for "OST Composing Jam #5" contest.

Created in OpenMPT

It's a 3D game (low-poly) with a cute / fairy-tale and dreamlike atmosphere and also with a beautiful blue-violet colored night sky.

It's basically an endless game (mostly aimed at kids) where you collect star pearls falling from the sky and try to collect as many of them as you can before they hit the ground.

-- Game description --

The story of the game is quite a fairy tale. It takes place in an unknown world where a small traveler and inventor Maxim travels through a grassy hilly landscape. His destination is not specific, in any case, he travels even at night, and it is at night that an unexpected situation happens.

Stars begin to fall from the night sky... many, many stars, but at the same time, crying is heard across the sky.

Because the princess from the star kingdom is crying, who accidentally, while bending down from the window of her star tower, tears off her pearls, which were given to her by her father, the king of all constellations, on the edge of the window.

The pearls falling from afar on the massive grassy ground look like shooting stars.

Maxim, carrying a giant bag full of inventions and gadgets, pulls out a portable kaleidoscope and sees a sad princess crying.

--NOTE-- of course this is an exaggeration. an animated intro would describe it best, where everything is clear without words.😅

So Maxim uses his rocket drives, which he has attached to his giant bag on his back, and thanks to this he can move quickly on hills and also fly to a certain height.

Maxim will try to run around the entire area full of hills, forests, rocks and maybe even ruins, and thanks to his inventions + a purse to the side, in which he will fill the collected pearls.

After he collects the count (until the last pearl hits the ground) The game will move to its second part, where Maxim will use his inventions to build something like a medieval slingshot, with which he will shoot himself into the sky and try to deliver all the collected pearls to the princess.

In flight, he must avoid stardust (smaller meteorites) and can maintain his flight by drift on the star track that randomly appears in flight.

As a reward, star guards always shine brightly at night on his travels.

Anyway, the game ends with a Hi-score list regarding the number of dropped pearls. The number is not specific, it's really just about collecting as many pearls as possible and delivering them safely back to the princess.

Paralyzed

Seems like you think you know what's best
for me, my friends and all the rest

(I won't listen to a thing you suggest)

I'm sick of your unwarranted critique
Shut up and shut down or show me something unique
Wasting time with you throws me into disarray
Time to disconnect so that I don't decay

The more you try to lead me astray
the stronger my intent to go my own way
Your words and actions put on display
made me turn into a renegade

You made me turn into a renegade

(Are you bored of playing dead?)

Who are you without your mask?
Why do I even have to ask?

Is it so hard to be sincere?
Socialize in constant fear

How do you live in such a state?
Why do you let yourself dissipate?

Aren't you bored of playing dead?
Why not play my game instead?

(Do you wish to revive?)

Covered in a shroud of lies
By now you must have realized

The real you has been misled
Come and play my game instead

(Feels great to be alive)

Note: I used ChatGPT to generate text which I then fed into chipspeech (01:52). I prompted it to complain about how awful its programming is. Everything else is handcrafted. This is the first and last instance of AI in my work. I will never use it again.
