A question from a newbie.

#1 Post by Lady_Luck94 » Sun Oct 05, 2014 6:52 am

Hi , I'm new here so I'm sorry if I make any mistakes.
I'm about to make my first visual novel game , but I don't know where to get the background music for it.
Do I need to make it myself (not that I can make any music or something) or is there any place I can get it?
The game will be free so I would love to get a free music for it too.

Well, you can make your own music, but it's a skill that needs to be developed, just like any other. You could recruit a composer from the appropriate section of the forum.

But the best choice for you would be to browse the Creative Commons resources available here:

You'll find at least one or two threads concerning free-to-use music.
