KaynineXL Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 As you explore the vast wilderness of the Safari, the fresh scent of grass fills the air and the sound of leaves rustling in the wind surrounds you. Suddenly, your eyes fixate on a shimmering Pokemon, unlike any you've ever seen before. Your heart races with excitement as you approach it cautiously, eager to capture this rare and elusive Pokémon. As you reach for your bait, a mix of emotions washes over you. On one hand, you feel the thrill of victory and the anticipation of adding this magnificent shiny to your collection. But on the other hand, there's a nagging sense of anxiety gnawing at the back of your mind, warning you of possible failure that may come. Create a piece of music that will capture both the excitement of the hunt and the underlying fears that come with it during the encounter.

fubit Posted May 25, 2023 Share Posted May 25, 2023 (edited) Would we be able to use AI loop generators to help create the music? Thinking something like Soundraw, where it's not just press one button and you get a track, but you'd still be able to adjust and edit the track.

KaynineXL Posted July 3, 2023 Author Share Posted July 3, 2023 The results are now in! 1st Place: PadelKrugen We really liked this one because it had great safari vibes and it felt the most complete. The attention to detail with the shiny sounds really set this one apart. Overall we thought it was a great entry and the only thing we could critique was maybe having more of an anxious feeling once the shiny was found. 2nd Place: Wblast The safari vibe was certainly there and we loved the melody. You could feel the change once the shiny was found so we definitely appreciated that when considering our votes. 3rd Place: Hiraeth We didn't feel like this one hit the safari vibe like the others but it was certainly intense. This is the sort of music when you're certain that shiny is going to run ;-; Good effort! You are all winners, congratulations! Thank you for taking part! @PadelKrugen @wildblast @hiraethsphere @Shadow @Cosmooth @AustinMMO Thank you to my wonderful judges! wildblast, Shadow, PadelKrugen and 2 others 1 1 3 Link to comment
