Nominate ROBOBEAT for Best Soundtrack in the Steam Awards

[h3]Listen up, all you robo-gunslingers and rhythm cowboys…

It’s time to have your say, play your way, and make sure ROBOBEAT is here to stay 🎶

We’re asking all of you to cast your votes and help us to get ROBOBEAT nominated for the Steam Awards 2024![/h3]



You’re probably wondering, how does all of this work?

You’re free to choose to nominate ROBOBEAT for any of the categories in the Steam Awards, but we’d really appreciate it if you could nominate us for the Best Soundtrack category!

The Best Soundtrack category is for those games that deserve to be recognised for their outstanding musical score. In a nutshell, they’ve got the OST with the MOST!

So why do we think ROBOBEAT belongs in this category?

At its core, ROBOBEAT is all about shooting in sync with the rhythm, so music is at the very heart of the game. While you can add your own music into the game using the Custom Music editor, we spent a long time cherry-picking some incredible artists and carefully crafting the game’s soundtrack so that players could have an exceptional experience with or without the custom music feature.

Our soundtrack is made up of a sonic smorgasbord of styles, from glitch hop to electro swing. Seven incredibly talented artists contributed to it and all of them deserve special mention here. In order of how they are credited on the official OST, here they are along with the tracks they wrote for ROBOBEAT:
  • Thomas Vent - Razor’s Edge, Outlaw Override, and Swing Express.
  • Sobrem - High Voltage, Circuit Breaker, and Baneslinger.
  • nozze - Zombies, Back to Basics, Demented Wrath, McDuck is Now a Bird, Boss Battle, and Jack Black (Bonus).
  • Dark Twin Productions - Devil’s Disco, Riff Shocker, Groove Riot!, Bassline Blitz, Mechanical Pharaohs, The Duel, The Return, Zany Zone, Slow Down Buddy, and Peripatetic.
  • smultron - ROBOBEAT Menu Theme, The Drop, The Introduction, Adrenaline, The Great Battle for 2024 Begins, This Swamp is Overrun By Broken Robots, and Galactic Love Interest.
  • Dav Dralleon - Undeadline.
  • Hunter J Pierce - The Passage, Disco Fever, Data Corruption, and Infected Concept.

If you fell in love with any of these tracks while playing ROBOBEAT, please honour the exceptional work of these artists and nominate us for Best Soundtrack in the Steam Awards!

The top five nominees of each category will be revealed on the run-up to the Winter Sale, so keep your eyes peeled to see if ROBOBEAT gets nominated and then get ready to start voting all over again.
