Ability for background music is already implemented. If you place some .ogg music files into Data/Music folder and recompile the game, those files will be randomly played during rounds. We just don't have any music files.

helloou

okay, will think about creating some stuff and then submit it...

are these theme-based? think this would be nice...

regards

It's easy to make them theme-dependent

Yes, I think that not all the music-types will fit to any of the themes... So this would be the best

Regards

I'm also coordinating some music production, perhaps you should talk to me about the music you're producing. The themes are also my creation so it might help in that regard.
Talk to me on the hedgewars IRC channel, or irc.gamesurge.net #gwpickup

Hello. I'm 22 years old, nick "Cz0rny".
I could create some music for Hedgewars too, of course totally free .
Music I made is electronic with low temp (about 80 - 110 bpm).
If it will be possible, then I can send some stuff, to an e-mail or something...

I haven't got an Internet connection in home yet. I write in school, so sorry for ewentually time-delays.
I will post again, at 100%. Just not known a time...

Greedings.

How about uploading some samples at some file host, e.g. http://www.mediafire.com/, then PMing the download URL to anyone in the team for review?

There's absolutely nothing speaking against including your original tracks as long as you hold the copyright/distribution rights and allow us to include it with all copies of the game (it has to be good/matching as well but I think that's something you know anyway).
