Good morning. First of all, well done and thank you for this magnificent experience that you have offered us. I loved going through your game. However, as a new user to the engine you are using also in this game, I wonder how you managed to integrate the beautiful music because I don't see how to import a file, I can only use the chiptune music editor...
hello! novena was made in a much older version of bitsy, so i think these tricks should still work but let me know if they don’t:
- simple and easy — adding a single audio track (make sure it’s the .html file youre importing!): https://kool.tools/bitsy/tools/add-bitsy-audio/
- more advanced — implementing a ‘bitsy hack’ called bitsymuse: https://kool.tools/bitsy/tools/bitsymuse-ui/
the bitsymuse tool is a little trickier (but very cool, i used it for HOPE and i am still here) and i haven’t tested its compatibility with the newest version of bitsy. i think the first hack of just adding a single audio file should work without any issues though.
the engine has changed a lot since i made this game… good luck!
huh! i tested the first option just now and it seems to work fine for me… i’m curious on how you tried it!
the first option is kind of a ‘will always work’ trick because it’s really just adding an audio file to a HTML file and that never really gets outdated (more info about that on w3schools’ website). if you don’t mind telling me how you tested it, i’d be happy to help you with it, either in this comment chain or email me (my email address is on my website).
i don’t really know what you mean by “sets”… is it the art/tiles? for most of it i’ve imported images i drew on aseprite through pixsy. i usually made a 128x128 pixel image and drew in it, then exported them as a png and used pixsy to convert them into bitsy rooms.
