If you’re looking for a little bit of strangeness in your gaming and music experience, GoNNER: Press Jump to Die might be the indie game soundtrack you’re looking for.
GoNNER is a tough as hell procedurally-generated 2D platformer with roguelike elements, following the largely misunderstood and altruistic Ikk on a journey to cheer up his only friend in this world – a giant landbound whale named Sally – by searching for just the right trinket in the deep and dark places nearby.– Steam
Composed by Norwegian musician Joar Renolen and sound design by Martin Kvale, GoNNER‘s soundtrack features pop-like electronica and synth ambiance which pairs with the oddness of the game’s visuals and platforming gameplay in a interesting way. An almost ethnic quality pervades the game’s music, which compliments the stylistic art design of the game.
A little surreal, a little weird, and a little unique, GoNNER: Press Jump to Die is available on Bandcamp for a $3.99 purchase as a standalone soundtrack. The game, which has mostly positive reviews, plus it’s OST is also available to nab on Steam as a full bundle.
