My idea was to not distract the player from the game too much, as you know if your going to play the game for hours you want music to not get annoying,drive you too crazy. I am in the process of composing more exciting pieces to be added for later updates, so I'll keep everyone posted on that.

Thank you for taking the time to review the game and hopefully there are more good things to come.

Thanks for the comment! I think you accomplished your goal for the music. None of the music was annoying, some was relaxing and just provided a little musical backdrop for the game. Music that isn't subtle does run the risk at becoming annoying or grating. For it to work, I think there needs to be a large variety to the music so the same melodies don't repeat themselves to often.

Great thank you, I hope to have a lot more variation in my compositions in the up coming dates.

More updates soon.

Putting ENIGMA music into any game can't hurt. I could listen to that all day and most of the time I do.

The music in MTW1 (Medieval Total War 1) was pretty good too. I like drums in music when I play a wargame. Not wipeout or anything like that, but, like african drums or kettle drums in orchistras
