• Sync with the sounds of the city - 16 March 2023

  Did you know that GUN JAM’s official soundtrack was written specifically for the game? It played a huge part during development!

As we wanted to push the boundaries of what could be done with the rhythm, I experimented with making the guns shoot melodies by writing short passages, and cutting out the individual notes to be triggered when the player fired. Unfortunately, this didn't work because the gun audio kept getting lost within the competin…
