The Last Bastion is a Tower Defense game made for Mini Jam: 143, a 72-hour game jam with the theme Ink. As the team's sole sound designer and composer, I had complete creative freedom when it came to creating the game's audio. Since we had lots of inky elements, I went with an overall "wet and squishy" approach to the sound design, complemented by some more mechanical elements in our towers and the player's gun.
​
For the music, I went with a mix of synthwave and orchestral instrumentation to match the visual style our artist was going for and the overall action-packed nature of our gameplay.
​
We won 9th place overall and our team, dubbed Galactic Soup Studios, plans to create more game jam and full games together in the future!

The Last Bastion is available to play now on itch.io!
