What is it about ambient wind sounds, a deep harmonica and the scree of a hawk in the background that works so well together?
The level Clarendon in the Type:Rider, a puzzle-lite platformer full of history about fonts and typography is wonderfully created and this music plays throughout the entire level. There is everything you would expect in a level filled with this music, from tumbling tumbleweeds, dynamite plungers, mine carts, to being shot at while rolling through a saloon. The music is not overtly full of action because that is not the type of game Type:Rider is, but the music is perfect for putting you in the correct headspace to learn about a typeface that was created in the mid 19th century.
