Do You Really Want to Know 2 - Before Love | 2024 App Store Award Winner - Cultural Impact
Theme Song & In-Game Music | App Store Award Winner - Cultural Impact
I composed the theme song and all background music for《Do You Really Want to Know 2》a narrative-driven visual novel addressing HIV stigma, emotional isolation, and human connection.
The soundtrack was designed to reflect the protagonist’s emotional journey — from inner turmoil to healing — with a balance of subtle textures and melodic intimacy.
The theme song, co-written with lyricist Yi-Wei Wu and performed by actor/singer Wingle Chen, was structured to evolve musically with the character’s growth, mirroring his struggle to speak out and eventually seek support.
To support the game’s layered storytelling, I crafted adaptive scene music that blends into different narrative phases — fear, memory, confrontation, and reconciliation — enhancing emotional impact without overwhelming it.
《Do You Really Want to Know 2》was developed by Gamtropy in collaboration with the Taiwan AIDS Society. The game received the App Store Award for Cultural Impact in 2024, becoming the first Taiwanese game to earn this recognition. 今日工事：和 Wingle、Eri一起拜訪《愛說不說２：在愛之前》的製作團隊『遊戲熵』🙌🏻，參拜台灣首座App Store Award獎座🙇🏻！特別感謝 Wingle 為支持這作品，在早上下午都拍戲的繁忙行程中，特地抽出午休的一小時參與拜訪！當天創辦人之ㄧBoris 也分享了他們去紐約領獎的奇幻旅程！從一開始的通知，到最後一刻，Apple 始終保持神秘，僅以分享會為由邀請團隊，直到頒獎瞬間才揭曉，完美捕捉了得獎者的真實驚喜。在頒獎後的分享會中，團隊透過與全球媒體和其他獲獎團隊的交流，成功推廣遊戲並汲取經驗。App Store 編輯團隊根據每年提交的應用程式進行評選，除了著重在使用者體驗、設計、創新，這三方面之外，也特別關注應用程式對文化的影響力，表揚那些能夠豐富使用者生活並對社群產生深遠影響的作品。《愛說不說２：在愛之前》因此獲得「文化影響力獎」，希望藉此讓更多人關注作品和議題。更難能可貴的是，系列作品1、2兩代皆為非營利，誠邀大家下載體驗，支持團隊！遊玩時別忘了欣賞 Wingle 演唱的主題曲《愛說不說》！《愛說不說２：在愛之前》下載連結，立即開始遊玩！
