About This Game

Live the lo-fi life of a bedroom game composer.

Manage a game composer career

Train 3 music skills: instruments, production, and music theory.

Build a portfolio, grow your following, and compose for game developer clients.

Follow a realistic game composer journey; start with game jams, and eventually become the legendary composer of blockbuster AAA titles.

Deep simulation

NPCs have independent homes, schedules, jobs, and simulated lives over 24-hour days and a 365-day calendar.

Attend world events including public holidays, musical trends, live shows, and game audio conferences.

Your smartwatch monitors your Energy, Hunger, Stress, and Inspiration. Manage your needs as you balance your social life with your career.

Grow relationships

Meet a vibrant cast of characters and learn their hopes, dreams, and fears as they become a part of your life.

Support your friends, and in return they'll offer gifts and perks to help you make better music.

Discover 10 character stories and 8 romance options.

Compose real music

  • Express your creativity using Alawon's easy Digital Audio Workstation (DAW).

  • Create your own chords, beats, and melodies — or use pre-written blocks.  

  • Share your creations with other players on Twitch, or export and listen anywhere.

Branching story with 4 endings

A parasite has infected the music industry in Alawon. Compositions are being stolen by generative AI, and Big Music is obsessed with amassing DAWCoin.

Grow in status and uncover the dark secrets of the industry. Will you save the industry and make composing free for everyone, or will you exploit human creativity to become a greedy music tycoon?

Upgrades

  • Buy new homes to unlock major life improvements such as a cat, louder instruments, marriage, and eventually a luxury home studio. But mostly a cat.

  • Incremental/idle mini-game: find the balance of 3 different component upgrades to optimise DAWCoin mining speeds. Number go up.

  • Unlock new instruments and blocks for use when composing — as gifts from friends, or buy them in the music shop.
