In a 2011 interview with Kill Screen magazine, Pat Balthrop, sound designer, was concerned about the sound mixing in the game and the lack of a standard in the video game industry. Some parts of the score is described by Schyman as 'aleatoric' with some parts of the composition cuing up in response to the player's chance maneuvers and encounters. Other pieces were written for introducing each level and imbuing each with their own distinct soundtrack. Much like a film score, several pieces of music are written specifically for certain scenes like the first reveal of Rapture and the introduction of Dr. Schyman's experience with film scoring lead to natural choice by Ridgway for BioShock for creating an atypical video game soundtrack with emphasis on 'No Electronic Music.' They had previously worked together for the audio on the retro-inspired 2005 video Destroy All Humans!. All just on a much faster level, due to how condensed some of the areas on the map can be.Audio director Emily Ridgway worked closely with composer Garry Schyman in developing the score. In terms of comparisons, the game has taken inspiration from popular battle royale games, such as Fortnite and PUBG, and meshed them both together with a perspective that’s very similar to Don’t Starve. This addition to the game makes it incredibly easy to find some of the sneakier players out there who are hoping to get you just out of range of the normal viewpoint. With the addition of lookouts, though, you can activate them for a small period of time (or as long as you stand there) and the map will pan out much further than what you can normally do, allowing a good vantage point of the whole map. Each weapon in the game can activate a special attack with a right-click, with each one being completely unique to one another and makes for a much more interesting spin on the usual combat.

During this time, the map slowly starts to enclose into the middle and the victor is whoever manages to outlive the last player.Īn interesting take on the genre, other than the top-down isometric perspective is the addition of special attacks with certain weapons and the lookouts. Throughout the map, you will find weapons, ammo, items that have plenty of different uses, such as healing and calling down explosives from above.
