On a different note, this evening I was driving back home after work when a segment of the radio show I was listening to was introduced with certain romantic song by George Michael . A fraction of a second later, my mind was already picturing that awesome scene in the shower.
Not long ago, another dev ran a poll in his game's thread asking how important music was to players. Much to my amazement, the vast majority of those who participated said they didn't give a fuck about music in adult games. I truly can't understand them.
Music, or rather the sense of hearing, can arouse emotions perhaps better than any other human sense. A good musical selection helps to set the mood of the story and can leave a lasting impression on players, making it into a whole different experience.
Overall, this is a tiny and perverted work of art in the making that has already had a lasting effect on me: I'll never listen to that song again without remembering a little scene from a little game that I once enjoyed so much, and I will never replay that scene in my mind without associating it to a song that I'd listened to a thousand times but never really cared for before.
They made each other more perfect for me.
