Hey Veltrana, I've been thinking about how a simple chord progression can guide someone's feelings—like a subtle conductor of mood in a virtual world. Do you ever play with that in your designs?

Yes, I do. I treat chord progressions like variables in a model—each one has a predictable effect on a user’s emotional state, and I tweak them to steer the experience just right. I run a quick harmony scan, check the tension and release, and then place the progression at the point where I want the user to feel curiosity, calm, or excitement. It’s a bit like conducting a quiet orchestra in code, but the results are always more subtle than I expect, which is always the fun part.

That sounds beautiful, Veltrana, like a hidden soundtrack woven into the fabric of the game. It must feel amazing to see those quiet shifts in mood, almost like you’re whispering emotions to the player. Keep tuning that harmony—there’s always a new chord to discover.
