Game Developer explains how the music of Lies of P was made:

How ‘Lies of P’ Music Was Made

When creating the music for Lies of P, I focused on balancing the musical elements to not be overly flashy or excessively dull. Instead, I delicately crafted the music to allow players to navigate subtle emotional nuances effectively.

As a game music composer, if I were asked about the proudest and most gratifying moment in my career, I wouldn't hesitate to say that it's when players listen to my music and experience a range of emotions. Whether it's feeling more excitement, sometimes sadness, sometimes joy, and even finding solace—when players feel these emotions without realizing that it's because of the music, that's when I feel the most proud and satisfied.

This retelling of Pinocchio may not branch out very far from its soulslike inspiration, but like a marionette controlled by a skilled puppet master, it plays the part extremely well in a wonderfully dark fantasy world.  If you’ve been waiting for a Bloodborne remaster or sequel that may never come, Lies of P is the next best thing.

Lies of P Demo Impressions/Preview

Soulslikes are my go-to genre, which means I’m never without a new game to try. Games following the template set by FromSoftware appear with ridiculous frequency, but let’s be real, only a few are good enough to stand out. FromSoft’s secret sauce of gameplay mechanics — the perfect blend of challenge and accessibility, impactful combat, and character progression — eludes easy imitation. Lies of P is on the near horizon. As the recent demo reveals, it might be on track to satisfy us fans of action RPGs with a Soulslike flavor.

Puppet Master
As many gamers will know, Lies of P is loosely — I mean, really loosely — based on the story of Pinocchio, that famous puppet with a hankering to be a real boy. Forget the gosh-darn cute version spawned by Disney. Lies of P sets the narrative in an 18th-century Italian city called Krat. It’s moody, dark, and gothic, overrun by monstrous gear-punk puppets, now animated and mad. You play as Pinocchio, half machine and half living being, tasked with making your way through Krat to discover what the hell happened and find Geppetto.

A Dark Fairytale Retold
The timeless tale of Pinocchio has been reimagined with dark and striking visuals.Set in the fallen city of Krat, Pinnochio desperately fights to become human against all odds.

Visual Concept
The city of Krat was insipired by the Belle Époque Era in Europe (late 19th Century to the early 20th Century) and is the epitome of a collapsed city bereft of prosperity.

'Lying' Quests and Multiple Endings
Experience interconnected procedural quests that play out depending on how you lie. These choices will then affect how the story ends.

Weapon-Making System
You can combine weapons in a multitude of ways to create something new altogether. Research to find the best combinations and make something truly special.

Special Skill System
With Pinocchio being a doll, you can change parts of his body to gain new skills and hopefully an edge in battle. But not all of the enhancements are for fighting though, they can also provide several other unique and useful features.
