Beta test for Silk Dust, a new text adventure

Cool! I'm happy about it. I hope you will like the game, I had some great fun working on it (BTW I'm still working on the music, another rather pleasing activity).

Mine arrived today . I'm VERY happy with it, congratulations to you Davide for this excellent adventure, and a very apt soundtrack.

Also, great package with "feelies" just like the old school ones.

Two thumbs up!

A new piece of music for Silk Dust, called Varenna Suite. It is for a full orchestra, it was quite a challenge to write this one!

Another piece of music. It is called Mediterranean Sunset. If you have played to Silk Dust, you should know what is this referring to

I still have to write a longer suite and then I will declare the endeavor finished

Work is finished on the Silk Dust soundtrack!

You can listen all the pieces on SoundCloud: https://soundcloud.com/user-375194295/s ... soundtrack

I created a soundtrack project on Itch.io where all the pieces (AIFF 16 bit 44.1 kHz and FLAC 24 bit 192 kHz, plus a bonus piece called Turin Suite) can be downloaded for a small fee:
