“Spread The Party – Wake Up The Neighbours” is the first game by Waku Doki Games. It’s about a kid who dreams to be a DJ and, every night, he takes his paper boxes, which, in his imagination, he converts into sound equipment in front of buildings. Using this sound equipment, he wakes up all the neighbours and makes them dance to the rhythm of his music. The game is based on the lights-out-puzzle, and it’s a free game with In-App purchases. Each level of the game consists on a building facade in which the player has to push some windows to make all of them light up. The idea is to wake up the neighbours with the music of the DJ, and for every pack of windows the player gets to light up, he discovers new musical instruments matching with the beat of the song. We intend to develop the game for Ouya, Steam, and later on mobile phone platforms.

Post news Report RSS How we made: The Music

The music in “Spread The Party – Wake Up The Neighbours” is one of the most important items. Everything in our game is related to the music: the DJ, his dream, the way of playing, matching the loops with the puzzle game to score points, the lights of the city lightening to the rhythm, the disco effect behind the buildings and in the music itself. Here is how Agus, our musician, created this first track, named “Spread The Party – All The People Go To Dance”:

When we first thought about creating the soundtrack for Spread The Party, we wanted it to be a dance track where the player could mix different elements along the game. Maybe that’s the reason why I tried to incorporate musical instruments of different kinds.

I incorporated classical instruments like the piano, violin and combined the voice with several sequencers, synthesisers and electronic elements. I also thought about including classical guitars to give it a spanish, more temperamental flavour.

Even the basic dance style rhythms have some latin music elements which combine with the different rhythmic elements throughout the game.A total of 89 loops have been created with more than 22 instruments and voices, which the player will discover as he plays and solves the puzzles. These loops give the player the feeling of multiple themed variations, as if the player was really developing the music on a mixing desk.

What we’ve tried to achieve, is mixing all this in a cocktail shaker, blend it, shake it… and we got “Spread The Party – All The People Go To Dance”.
