Score your whole game without hiring a composer
A game needs more than one piece of music: a calm exploration loop, tense combat themes, ambient backdrops for menus and cutscenes, and stingers for wins and deaths. Commissioning all of that from a composer is expensive and slow, which is why so many indie projects ship with placeholder audio. Generating each cue from a prompt lets a solo developer or small studio score an entire game in an afternoon, then regenerate any track that doesn't fit without paying for revisions.
The key technical need for game music is seamless looping, since a track may play for as long as a player lingers in a scene. Describe a steady, evolving-but-repetitive mood with no hard ending, and trim to a clean bar so the loop point is inaudible. Match intensity to the scene — ambient and sparse for exploration, driving and percussive for boss fights, minimal for menus. You get a commercial license without a subscription that covers shipping the music in a released, monetized game.

Game Music FAQ
Describe a steady mood that evolves subtly but has no hard ending or big final chord, then trim the generated track on a clean bar boundary so the end flows back into the start. Ambient and percussive loops generally loop more cleanly than tracks with a dramatic build, so for long scenes lean toward something repetitive and texture-driven.
Yes. You get a royalty-free commercial license without a subscription that covers using the music in a released, monetized game — whether it's free-to-play, paid, or on a storefront like Steam or itch.io. You pay once per track and owe no ongoing royalties based on copies sold or players.
Background music is composed and melodic — it carries a theme and sets the tone of a level or menu. Ambient music is more textural and atmospheric, often without a strong melody, designed to fill space and build mood (wind, drones, soft pads) without drawing attention. Many games layer both: ambient beds for exploration and stronger themes for key moments.
It depends on the scene — a menu loop might be 30–60 seconds, while an exploration or combat track often runs 1–2 minutes before looping so players don't notice the repeat. Generate a full-length track and trim it to a clean loop point; longer loops feel less repetitive during extended play.
Yes. Describe a high-intensity, driving mood — fast percussion, heavy low end, urgent strings or synths — and the AI composes a track to match. Toggle instrumental on for a cleaner score, and trim to a tight loop so the energy sustains for the length of the fight.
Download as MP3 for a small, ready-to-use file, or as lossless WAV when you need maximum quality to import into a game engine like Unity or Unreal. WAV is usually preferred for in-engine audio so you can apply your own compression and looping settings.
