music?

[rgerber]

Hello

I'm buddha from the frontpag.

In the game, you will surely not be allowed to use original assets?
Do you have anyone creating music?

[philip]

We can't discuss exact details of the music arrangement, but we hope to use the original score if possible.

If youre not allowed to use the original files because of licensing

Id suggest to include an option to just import the original soundtrack from cd or itunes into the game

[philip]

Agreed, that would be a nice compromise if we can manage it. In the end it all comes down to what kind of monetization (if any) we're talking about with the game, and how the agreements between the various rightsholders (and us) plays out. Importing from CD/original game isn't outside of the realm of (technical, anyways) possibility!

I take it from that then, that Cyan do not (wholly) own the rights to the music? Surely if they did they would have no problems giving them to you since they have given you Base models etc for reference.

[philip]

Unfortunately we aren't allowed to discuss any details about interactions between us and Cyan, including whether they've given us base models, textures, music, or anything like that.
