So...
Should I write music to replace the existing tracks (the peace, the heavy
development and the war) so that users can choose, or should I write some
more to go side by side with the existing music? The latter would be much
more difficult, because I would have to make it sound similar to the old
ones.
Another question: should I write a bunch of separate parts that can be played
randomly, or should I make one big long song? Making them play randomly
would probably require a bunch of modifications to your engine, and I don't
know if it would be worth it. I am open to either option.
Thank you!
