Weifan Chang announced to score Detention
Weifan Chang, a Taiwanese composer musically influenced by a blend of Hollywood films and Japanese games, has been announced as the composer to Red Candle Game’s Detention, a survival horror set in 1960s Taiwan. Detention, which takes place under martial law, will be a point-and-click game that guides the main character through an old, haunted school while incorporating elements of Taiwanese/Chinese culture and mythology along the way.
Weifan Chang began his compositional career in 2006, and has since composed a wide variety of games across genres and platforms including PC, iOS, as well as film scores and commercial jingles. For Detention, Weifan Chang’s score will incorporate elements of electronica, lo-fi, and rock, along with select combinations of traditional Asian instruments for a particularly dark effect.
Detention‘s release date has not yet been set.
