No-Fun-Allowed

Music Suggestions:

- Alternate battle themes per stratum.
- Give each boss their own theme. (The current boss battle music is best suited for Vanaduke.)
- Give the Arcade it's own theme.
- Give the Bazaar it's own theme.
- Give Moorcraft Manor and Emberlight their own themes.
- Add a sound effect that plays whenever you earn an Achievement (Similar to TF2)

Sound problems:

- The battle theme and boss theme are too loud.
- The BGM is too low.
- Occasionally, the BGM plays over the battle music.
- Frequently, some sounds don't play. (Not sure why.)
- We require a sound notification that plays when your health is low, and repeats until your health is restored.

Discuss.

More dedicated soundtracks

More dedicated soundtracks would be cool. I like the idea of having boss music themed to a specific boss. I never liked how different the Gloaming Wildwoods theme was to the boss music that plays while battling Snarby. Though, I'm not sure if Moorcroft and Emberlight merit their own themes as you spend so little time in them normally.

I personally think the first two points under Sound Problems are a bit nit-picky. Especially considering there's volume sliders to change the sound levels to whatever suits your fancy.

Please no notification noise for low health. That dinger in Pokemon for red health drives be absolutely bonkers after about 15 seconds.

Moorcroft and emberlight

Moorcroft and emberlight don't need their won themes, and we don't need a low hp dinger, that's that. I like the pokemon comment -> That bugs me to, even though i don't play, and just listen to my brother play accross the room. I guess you could make it optional, but some enemies will deal half your health in one hit, so youd have to have it ringing all the time, making it kinda pointless. And I don't need an acheivment sound effect. But the bosses do need more themes. I kinda think that the current one works with royal jelly too though, and I'm flat out torn between it and vanaduke. Don't complain about volume though, you can change it...

They need a retro mode for

They need a retro mode for unocking all the acheivments. Like it does the samus-save-point each time you use a lift, or it would make that link noise if you pick up a pot (that weird EUREGH! noise he makes, as if he has discovered some exeptional peice pottery). Or something dumb from pokemon, like if you use elemental on a zombe, it'll be all like "it's super effective!"
That would be hillarious. Justsayin.
That, and this was the best discuised bump ever. Admit it. It's an impostobump. Moostache and all.
