Windseeker OST

This is an orchestral score for the fictional adventure game Windseeker, inspired by the image prompt of LoneRabbit’s OSTCompJam 8.

Vir’s brother Monu has sailed away, but before he could have possibly reached his destination, the winds vanish. Vir will do anything to save Monu, who must be lost at sea, and return the winds.

Main Menu Theme

This is supposed to play when starting the game. The mood is set to expect a sad story and the music is not supposed to claim too much of the player’s attention. It is supposed to loop after the intro part, so the fade out is happening in the first repeating section.

Guiding Star

On her travels, Vir finds a helpful, if somewhat confused, little star, that will support her in dealing with the challenges she must face to find the winds. This track is supposed to play when they meet for the first time.

Stillness’ Lair

This track is supposed to play in the area before the confrontation with The Stillness, that has imprisoned the winds.

Farewell

During the final confrontation with the Stillness it becomes clear that Monu has died in a storm, that has split his spirit in half – the part that is driven by love for his sister has become a star and has found its way to her, the part that is angry and bitter about dying at the whim of the winds has turned into the Stillness and imprisoned them. To release the winds, Vir must allow both the star and The Stillness to become one again, so Monu can peacefully leave this world behind. This track is Vir saying goodbye to her brother.

Windseeker – End Credits

While some topics of Windseeker are sad and melancholic, the game is supposed to be an adventure and so the final credit roll is supposed to remind the player of the different stages of the game.
