Composer Jonah Senzel on the soundtrack: When composing, I tried to reflect the main elements of the game in the music. For example, I have often used semi-octaves (tritones) in the chords, which ages ago in classical music were also known as the ‘devil’s interval’ and were therefore forbidden. ” Pony Island is a psychedelic and unique experience that alternately leaves the player in a state of despair and amazement. Due to the interesting concept that the player only develops over time, it is probably the most fun to encounter the game without any prior knowledge. The entangled storyline, which mostly takes place on a meta level, constantly changes between happy and traumatic scenes that harmonize perfectly with the diverse 8-bit soundtrack. An indiest who proves once again: A great effect can be achieved even with simple means.
