Wintory worked closely with writer David Gaider - the man behind the popular “Dragon Age” series - and songwriting collaborators including pop musician Montaigne and the band Tripod, consisting of Scott Edgar, Steven Gates, Simon Hall. But that friend also introduced him to Liam Esler, co-founder of Summerfall Studios, the Australia-based company that went on to make “Stray Gods.” He pitched the idea to a game developer friend who hated it. “I thought, well, a musical is sort of the most obvious example of that,” he says, “and no one’s ever really done a video game musical the way I was picturing it.” Wintory has won accolades in the game industry for his soundtracks to indies like “Journey” and blockbusters like “Assassin’s Creed.” But he always wanted to work on something that put the music front and center.
