Another pretty easy way to do retro-style music and sound effects would be to embed a mod player library, eg mikmod: http://mikmod.raphnet.net/doc/libmikmod-3.1.10/docs/mikmod.html You could then use a mod tracker for composing the game music. Back in the early 90s there were some pretty cool games that used this approach (StarCon2 anyone? ... holy crap, it's been open-sourced! http://sc2.sourceforge.net/info.php ) -- Paul Winkler http://www.slinkp.com _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.linuxaudio.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/linux-audio-dev
