A roguelite-like space game. Explore a randomly generated galaxy. Survey strange new worlds, meet aliens, and occasionally blow them up. Starlight is inspired by games like FTL, Star Control 2, X-Com and Weird Worlds. It will feature space exploration and combat, crew management, and missions to planet surfaces to do jobs and collect resources.

Here are the first few tracks from the game. I have many more that are started but not quite ready to be called songs yet. Needless to say I am inspired by the fantastic music of Ben Prunty on FTL (though all of his works are quite good!) I also love the music from Star Control 2 and will no doubt be exploring some musical directions inspired by that game.
My main goal is conveying a mood of loneliness and wonder. You're a tiny ship in a big universe filled with strange and interesting things after all!
These tracks (with the exception of Funky Robot) are mainly aimed at exploration music - the combat songs will kick things up a notch.

I like the music, seems to wear it's inspiration a little too on the nose. But maybe that's what you are going for.
Interesting.Tracking;)
