Night School‘s haunted island is set in the Pacific Northwest, which is where the composer has lived since he was three. However, scoring Oxenfree came naturally to Rohrmann thanks to the game’s setting. “I always like to be adding basic musical knowledge, and I think that informs things and makes it fresher for me to work on – but fresher for the game as well, it brings more of a unique perspective to it…as opposed to the tenth version of this thing I’ve done nine times before.” His body slowly relaxed and you both sat in silence on the coast.“I can’t do the same thing over and over – every project has to have some aspect of expanding and learning, whether it’s a new instrument or a new style of music,” Rohrmann explains. ![]() He looked at you from the corner of his eye. You leaned against his shoulder, making him tense. In the distance the cable cart snapped and the transport system disappeared into the forest. He reached for you, with a dripping wet hand, clutched your forearm and pulled you out.īoth of you took a moment to catch your breath. Jonas struggled to get up, pulling himself out of the cold water. Your fingers dug into the rocks of the bank, causing your nails to chip and crack. His hair was damp on his forehead and his cap stuck on the back of his neck. Jonas was by your side, his hand still in yours. Your lungs took in air again as your head came out of the water. It was almost like a pressure had been lifted. You slammed through some sort of barrier, a whirring sound spiraling away. The only thing that kept your consciousness was Jonas’s hand in yours. ![]() The fall left your feet exposed without ground. He was still touching his aching temple but with his free hand he took your hand. You moved past him to the door of the cable cart, unhooking the latch and allowing it to swing open. You looked over the ledge and down below there was a public trail, benches- and an oncoming lake. Jonas groaned and touched his forehead with his hand in a way that indicated he had a slight migraine. ”Wait,” Jonas repeated, “We’ve done this before.” Your legs felt weak, causing you to stumble and grab Jonas for support. And as your impending doom came everything went to static. ”Wait,” he cut you off, “Did you hear that?” ”Okay just calm down,” Jonas said, moving his hands downward to signal you to calm down, “This is a public- thing so we can’t fall or they’d be sued or something. ”This cable cart snapped,” you said, panic rising in your voice, “We were in it- how-how-“ You nearly stumbled back, catching the ledge. Just as you were going to hit the ground, the sound of whirring fills your ears, like the rewinding of a tape. ![]() You fell back, gripping the wall, anything for support. There was a sickening snapping sound and everything dropped. You looked and saw the cord of the cable cart was on 3 loose threads. ”Yeah,” he said, and gave you a slightly relieved look, “I’m glad you don’t just see me as Alex’s new stepbrother.” ”I see,” his voice trailed off into a lull. The moon was out and the stars danced around it. You looked over the ledge and at the sky. Jonas patted his back pocket to check if Ren’s radio was still there. Ren also had those ‘brownies’ so it was clear you had to get him first. Sure, they hated one another but at least they had each other whereas Ren- he was all by himself. Clarissa and Alex were together at Milner Outpost. You managed to get in this com-tower and get into contact with Ren, Clarissa, and Alex. And distorted voices.Īnd then somehow you transported from this dark cave to a grassy area. Jonas did this and you vaguely remember the triangle becoming bigger, with a red eye. It turns out the triangle could connect with the radio when you tuned the right stations. And then you saw the triangle.īy the cave’s ceiling was a rotating, glowing triangle. You followed him, the tunnel leading to a bigger cave. Jonas took the radio from Ren (who was now high and likely to break it) and quickly entered the passage that had flashed light. The tuning caused flashing lights and static noises to appear from a tunnel hole. He tuned it near specific piles of rocks. He quickly ate a ‘brownie’ and then took out his portable radio. Ren had been RAVING about showing you something great. Ren, you and Jonas were in Beacon Beaches’ cave. The reason you were this transport system was because of Ren. There was limited space so your shoulders practically bumped. You could see the whole forest from this height. It shook but stayed at enough level so you could stand. You moved away from the rusty edge of the cable cart. ![]()
