The first soundtrack of sorts released by Saint Nowhere. Let these audio leftovers be a lesson to not go way over your head in scope when developing a (now scrapped) visual novel. With that being said, shall we dance?

This soundtrack is for a now-scrapped visual novel I had worked on for like 2-3 years called Enchanted Bliss. It would've involve the protagonist, a genderless ferret and rookie wizard named Dylan Rhodes, being sent to investigate a city-wide disaster in the country of Centauri. Heading the assignment would be their coworker and superior Carmichael KentzCarmichael Kentz. After the introduction and briefing period, you would get to meet six coworkers who you would have to (choosing only one per playthru) pal along with an investigate a chunk of the city ruins: Brava Denver, Maple Finley, Marcos Wylder, Price Flynn, Remy Taffy, or Serena Journey. It winded up being scrapped in the end because it was far too much work drawing the character sprites, backgrounds, and writing out every mini-story involved with all possible routes (let alone the multiple endings one could achieve on every route). As of writing, I've begun making plans to retool this as a short story instead with the same cast, title and general premise.
Cover art for Enchanted Bliss: OST shows the scrapped VN's protagonist Dylan Rhodes done up in a neon sign-esque style meant to mimic old iPod advertisements in a sense. It's very close to the visual style of both the scrapped game and its title screen entirely, being a remnant of it.
The following track was made with Brava Denver in mind: Stuffed Discoveries. I couldn't really get any of the other tracks below to fit her vibes sadly, so I guess this would just be her main theme!
The following tracks were made with Maple Finley in mind: Hallowed Briefings, Chipped Halo, Fallen Angel, and Final Offer.
The following tracks were made with Marcos Wylder in mind: Calculating Patience, Overheated Diodes, Compressed Distrust, Rocky Connections, Installing Remedies, and Synthetic Perfection.
The following tracks were made with Price Flynn in mind: Devilish March, Hellish Tension, Downloading Blasphemy, and Dead Links.
The following tracks were made with Remy Taffy in mind: Candied Memories, Sweet Seduction, and Drinking Sugar.
The following tracks were made with Serena Journey in mind: Squeaky Sparring, Rubbery Jabs, and Aching Latex.
The remaining tracks reflect certain points of the game. For starters, the Enchanted Bliss track was to be used for the opening main menu screen. The Aftermath would be used as background music during a fakeout introduction where the player character would be introduced along with setting up a custom backstory - only to be then sent away as the real protagonist Dylan would show up afterwards. Each ending had its own music, with the neutral one being Net Zero, the good one being Getting Better, and the best one being Graduation Day. The starting area where you would meet the cast would be accompanied by Freshman Orientation playing in the background. Finally, there would be tense moments / plot beats utilizing the following tracks: Forgotten Servers, Reopening Wounds and Troubleshooting.
