Description
Game Summary:
Centuries after humanity spread out amongst the stars, your colony finds itself struggling. As their last hope, you are sent out to try and find someone or something that can help your people. But the galaxy is vast, and who knows what you may encounter out there...

The soundtrack is composed in a mostly orchestral style, but makes use of other instruments and synths to create different feels in the tracks. The first few tracks represent being in space and flying through it, and the last few are made to fit different planet concepts. I composed each track in FL Studio, but threw around some ideas in MuseScore, particularly for arranging string parts.

Tracklist:
Track 1: Are We Alone ~ Theme of SOLUS GALAXIA - 3:29
Your adventure will be long and hard to try and save your people. The endless search begs you to ask the question: Are We Alone?

Track 2: At Home In The Stars - 3:41
The theme that plays when you are at home in your ship. Rest and relaxation is important if you're going to complete the mission.

Track 3: The Cosmic Expanse - 1:44
The first theme that plays when

Track 4: Crossing the Threshold - 3:14
The second space flight theme.

Track 5: Snowfields of Gelica - 3:26
Theme of the snow planet Gelica. The barren landscape is immensely beautiful, with the snow running on as far as the horizon.

Track 6: Ruins of Magnis Major - 2:42
Theme of the lava planet Magnis Major. Legends tell of this fiery place once being the home of a huge civilisation that spanned across the entire galaxy, but are now forgotten to time. All that remains is ruins; you don't feel like you are alone on the planet, but the civilisation went extinct long ago, right?

Track 7: Journey on the Forest Planet - 4:19
Theme of the forest planet Silvalis. A 3-section adaptive soundtrack that changes as you explore the planet.
Section 1: Arrival - As you descend onto the planet, you are filled with hope. The planet is teeming with plant life, it seems like it's inevitable for you to find someone to help your people.
Section 2: The Dark Forest - Pushing further on, you begin to get deeper and deeper into the forest, your hope dwindling as it becomes darker and more tangled
Section 3: Life - Mercifully, a clearing appears in the undergrowth. Taking a moment to catch your breath, you watch in awe as a magnificent deer runs through. Maybe your search for salvation isn't completely fruitless after all.

Message from the artist:
