Enter the futuristic world of Nobody Wants To Die, an interactive noir detective story set in a dystopian New York City that explores immortality and the dangers of transhumanism.

For the original score, award-winning Polish composer Mikolai Stroinski (Age of Empires IV, Diablo Immortal, The Witcher 3, Metamorphosis, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter) crafts an elegant blend of live orchestra, jazz instrumentation and analog synthesizers to reflect the game’s distinct visual aesthetic and cinematic neo-noir inspirations, further immersing players in this innovative, sci-fi experience with rich, evocative soundscapes.

"The process of creating the score for Nobody Wants To Die was a long and inspired journey. It took me a while before I established the color of the soundtrack. At the beginning I didn’t want to incorporate the synthesizer colors and just stick to the orchestra sound. However, the game silently insisted on having them so I yielded. As soon as I put down the first chord, I felt things started to come together.

The very first piece I composed (now carrying the game’s title) featured the melody which I used as the theme for the entire game, either in full or in fragments. I’m very happy that Critical Hot Games invited me for this project. Thanks to it I was able to wake up a hibernating jazz musician in me that, despite sleeping, is always very happy to participate in my creative process." - Mikolai Stroinski
