Imagine a world where leg warmers, mullets, and boomboxes were the height of fashion, and the air was filled with infectious beats of synth-pop and new wave… Kingdom Eighties takes you on an immersive nostalgic trip through a vividly recreated '80s, complete with iconic fashion, classic lemonade stands and arcades, but most importantly and something that we celebrate today, the music that defined the time and breathed life into our singleplayer adventure.
The '80s music soundtrack is the beating heart of the game, and we've dedicated an extraordinary amount of effort and passion into tailoring a truly exceptional '80s-inspired soundtrack that serves as the time machine transporting players back to this iconic era. With painstaking care and attention, we've delved into the vast treasure of '80s iconic musical waves, painstakingly assembling a collection of tracks that encapsulate the essence of every level. Each song has been hand-crafted to evoke unique emotions, memories and nostalgia that define the '80s experience, as well as form strong connections and associations with each of the locations in the game.
Our soundtrack is more than just a playlist - it's a carefully woven tapestry of experiences you encounter when playing Kingdom Eighties, and a symphony of synthesizers and electric guitars that capture the spectrum of emotions from exploring dark forests and cycling around your camp grounds to battling ferocious waves of Greed. Whether it's the infectious beats of synth-pop or the enigmatic allure of new wave, every note has been thoughtfully selected to immerse players in the vibrant spirit of the era and the dynamics of the gameplay.
The headmaster of this extraordinary soundtrack is a renowned composer Andreas Hald who is himself a passionate devotee of '80s music. Andreas has intertwined his incredible talent with love for the ‘80s which resulted in the beautiful recreation of the era’ authentic soundscapes, ensuring that every drum machine beat, every guitar riff and every synth’s harmony resonates with the spirit of the ‘80s summer camps, exploration and mystery, as well as perfectly synchronizes with the gameplay. This meticulous synchronization allows the soundtrack to dynamically adapt to the player's actions in the game, creating an immersive experience where the music doesn't just accompany the playthrough but also plays an integral role in shaping the story and ultimately immersing into it.
Tonight at 8pm at the
Save & Sound festival, you’ll have a unique chance to observe Andreas being immersed and fully dedicated to the careful arrangement of notes and sounds that, when assembled together, create the mesmerizing Kingdom Eighties’ soundtrack. Don’t miss your chance to see how the game’s melodies - the beating heart, the driving force and the soul of the entire gaming experience - come to life. You will witness how every note, every chord and every key become a time capsule, a portal to an exciting ‘80s gameplay that captures hearts and transports players on an unforgettable journey back in time.
