Released late last week, Momento is the epitome of a wholesome game. It's a constraint-free, limitless interior design game set in a diorama-style environment that naturally calls Unpacking to mind.
Its music, too, borrows its acoustic guitar focus from that unforgettable cozy game. Composed by Australian Mikey O'Neil, Momento's OST features 39 tracks organized in layers that stack up depending on the time of day. As the composer explains on Bandcamp, "The first set of themes represent the compositions in their fullest form, with all instruments and layers active." The tracklist includes versions numbered II and III, which strip away layers to make them even more stripped-back.
The soundtrack tracks the story of Momento closely, with different themes and motifs mapping out the different rooms and paths you can explore in each playthrough. The soundtrack includes 39 official tracks and 8 bonus tracks, with a runtime of over 2 hours. This OST includes all of the different variations of each theme from the game.
The first set of themes represent the compositions in their fullest form, with all instruments and layers active. Version II is slightly stripped back, with fewer layers but still keeping much of the core instrumentation from each theme. Version III is very stripped back, often with just a few solo instruments and minimal texture and layering. At the end of the soundtrack there are bonus tracks such as audio snippets that play when interacting with the different audio players in the game.
