New EP Release; Bloody Duckery

I haven’t made a game for a while so I thought I’d do one and this one is a platform game where you have to get to the end of the level without dying and of course there are enemies and traps along the way to make it more of a challenge. I made the sprites the characters and backgrounds and also the buttons I made all of the stuff which I replaced from a template I found online, oh yeah and the music which is what this EP is from, and there are ten levels. There is a story behind the game and why I called it Bloody Duckery. When I was young I had this rubber ducky and obviously I used to have it in my bath time and that bit comes in shortly but I did a séance and I was messing about and I used the rubber ducky as part of the séance who we, me and a couple others called up Bloody Mary. A week passes and I’m messing about with the rubber ducky in the bath and I give it a few dips in the water nothing happens just yet but basically I noticed every time I dipped the rubber ducky in the water there would be some sort of curse and every time I didn’t do it nothing would happen. I finally after a month or two of bad curses I burnt the thing on a open fire and it turned purple then all glittery. I thought the soul come out and I checked my mirror in the bathroom for any other changes but nothing happened so I breathed a sigh of relief knowing it was over. I’m not really that superstitious or believe in ghosts or calling up the dead but there were some strange things happening oh yeah and the lights cut out all after the séance with the rubber ducky and I didn’t really think it would become possessed. The story behind the game is Bloody Mary posses a rubber ducky and has to fight evil to get the exorcism from the priest. The first song Bloody Duckery – Main Theme is a upbeat but dark track with sound FXs of a duck added on it now it would of been in 8 bit but I forgot to add that on so it’s the HD quacks. It’s the main theme to the game and is on the main menu. Like all the tracks on this EP I used my 8 Bit Synth which I use quite a lot in my gaming works and used it quite a few times now. The next track is the main theme alternative version which I said I was going to make some alternative versions of my songs as I enjoy making them quite a lot. I like this one a lot better and think it’s a catchy but another dark theme to it as it is Bloody Mary so nothing pretty about that. It has more duck samples which I changed slightly. I would say this is one of my favourites on the EP or short album but I call it a EP as back in the 2000s EPs had five tracks anyway it is what it is. The next track Sink Or Swim is a upbeat stroll down the gaming street kind of track. It is also a Electro Funk track and I forgot to mention I used 8 bit drums to give it that drum feel to the tracks and any 8 bit drums are good though. It’s a good track to stick on any level but I thought I’d have this in the main game and part of the main feature of the game. The next track is the alternative version to Sink Or Swim and again I prefer this version to the orginial but I do like both but I think this one is the better version. I changed it here and there making way for new instruments and changing the drums as well. I put this also in the level and there are three songs in the game before it repeats hopefully but you would probably die before then. The last track For Duck Sakes is a easy going but another dark theme song. I like this one and think it’s alright but probably not a favourite but I would put it close to it. It has more duck samples which I found on Pixabay my go to place to get free FXs and other bits and bobs that are quite useful in my projects.  I used a lot of delay on this one as well which I like to do a lot.
