  • I have just put up a new (and large) set of music stems and mixdowns for use in games, videos, etc:

    soundcloud.com/1billionhex/sets/digital-bits-4-digital-coins

    This content has been published under a commercial-use Creative Commons Licence and you can download, edit and do pretty much what you want with it to remix and get something suitable for you own project.

    Some of these stems will make perfect SFX if cut up. There's some good sounds for bouncing balls, bats and many other things. You are not limited to using it for music. ;-)

    There's more details on the page but I'm posting an extract from the page for quickness. This is also an experiment to try to help me to continue helping other indies...

    <font color=blue>The only thing you must do is give credit to me in your credit roll or other description or notes page. The exact attribution must be "Music by Bob Noble (1BillionHex)". There is no need to add links to my site or this SoundCloud set.

    That said, to help me provide more of these packs and buy food to live on, I have set-up this experiment:

    I have a number of albums published (not licensed under the Creative Commons). I hope to use any revenues from the sale of that music to provide for myself, my family and to support my efforts to help other indies along the way.

    The experiment:

    Each time I sell 100 tracks from my own catalogue (not albums), I shall publish another bundle like this one. Of course, I am not asking anyone to buy 100 tracks themselves, this will be a running total of each track that is sold. Each of these content packs will, of course, be unique and possibly a completely different style. These packs will all be licensed under the same terms. I will also publish "all rights reserved" music but all Creative Commons content will be clearly marked to avoid confusion.

    These 100 tracks will only be counted from sales directly purchased via CDBaby. You are under no obligation to purchase any content to use the content in this pack but if you wish me to make more, then you can help me to help you. Each time I see 100 of my tracks sold via CDBaby I will compose, arrange, record and publish another set. If someone purchases an entire album from my catalogue on CDBaby, the total number of tracks will be added to the running total of eligible sales.

    You can view this catalogue at: cdbaby.com/Artist/BobNoble%3C/font%3E

  • Thanks for the clarification. I wish we all could be in a position to guarantee an income. Sadly, this is usually not the case.

    If you looking for music, let me know: gamemusicwvu@1billionhex.com

    I'd be happy to discuss arrangements that benefit everyone.

    Good luck!

    Bob.

  • If one dev might be enough, what would your role be?

    You mention revenue sharing but also hiring devs. Sorry if I'm splitting hairs but will you be forming a team of partners or employees (or both)?

    If you are looking for music, take a look at my music samples:

    soundcloud.com/1billionhex/sets/game-audio-resources

  • After over 20 years involved in IT and the internet, I've seen some pretty poor hosts and providers... The only one that's still around that I trust (from personal experience) and have been using them for years is Host Virtual.

    vr.org

    Also a very good VPS solution and they do actually have 24/7 support that is manned.

  • If you're looking for some music, let me know.

    I'm putting together some samples on SoundCloud:

    showlink.in/gamemusic

    I also have a few albums published under my own label:

    Contact me at gamemusicusp@1billionhex.com if you want to discuss it further :-)

  • Sorry for replying to myself but I thought I would give a quick update.

    I have added more content to the SoundCloud set, including my "Big Game Music Loops Volume 1" album.

    soundcloud.com/1billionhex/sets/game-audio-resources

  • I'm just getting some samples together to demonstrate my game music and other audio resources.

    If you want to have a listen, you will find them all in my "Game Audio Resources" playlist on SoundCloud. More will be added as I compose and record them.

    soundcloud.com/1billionhex/sets/game-audio-resources

    You can also take a look at my other music samples on SoundCloud:

    soundcloud.com/1billionhex

    There is also a full list of all my published music at CDBaby:

    cdbaby.com/Artist/BobNoble

    I'm pretty flexible with any arrangements should you be interested in anything I do... It all depends on the individual project.

    You can email me at postmaster(at)1BillionHex.com or reply here for general questions.

    Bob.

  • Hi everyone!

    I thought I'd start off my adventures in Scirra-land by posting the social equivalent of "Hello World" ;-)

    I'm returning to game design after some absence and thought I would give constructor engines a go. That's how I found Scirra ;-)

    I have been working mostly on my music recently and have quite a bit published under my own indie label. I also have some graphic-based content done.

    These will all help with my games (not much fun playing a game that has neither sound nor visuals LOL).

    Anyway, I guess that's a start (I usually end up with renditions of War and Peace in my posts).

    Look forward to giving Construct2 a whirl and upgrading.

    Regards,

    Bob.
