Oxenfree Soundtrack

[Deadlyus1]

Hey, now that the new Steam update is out. I have the game on Epic store, can you guys make the soundtrack separately buyable?

[Jackalope_908]

You can buy it at iTunes for ten bucks. Also a second album containing unused and variant tracks.

I'm a cheapo so I'll wait for a steam sale to get it cheaper if they allow me to buy it separately.

You want the music, but not the game? Am I reading that right? I'm not sure Steam policy accommodates that, at least without specific settings from the developer. Most cases I've seen (not all) treat OSTs as DLC, which usually can't be downloaded by itself without the game as well.

Nothing's wrong with being cost conscious but I don't think it's going to work out the way you want.

I have the game on EPIC's store but the soundtrack is not purchaseable. However, it is on Steam but I must own the game on Steam.... The new Steam update allows soundtracks to be bought without owning the game.

Oh. I did not know that.

The soundtrack is on Bandcamp for 7$

Work in progress: the new Oxenfree OST folder (in Steam music) is empty!

Oxenfree soundtrack can be purchased now without owing the game. :)

No, because the folder is empty, that is the problem.

I assume you've tried downloading it again, by now. Is there a chance you're looking in the wrong folder? Maybe there's a setting you didn't realize was set that's sending them somewhere else?

- a soundtrack can receive updates. It's useless to try downloading it again, we just have to wait for an update. But I just try and it's empty.
- no magic thing to find where it should be downloaded, just browse from the Steam properties, the folder is called "Oxenfree - OST" and is empty.

OK, hold up.

I looked at my copy of the sound track by going to the Music Details window and clicking "Show In System" and... and it's gone. It *was* there, now it's not. I'd manually copied the files over to my iTunes folder, so I hadn't bothered to look before, but yes, it's completely not there. After some further searching I found the folder in .../Steam/steamapps/music instead of .../Steam/steamapps/common/Oxenfree which is where I *remember* it being, but nope.

Not that that matters because the location I did find was empty, too.

There's somethin' scwewy goin' on awound here....

Yes, they began to move the soundtrack from game DLC to the new independant music content (see #4 https://steamcommunity.com/app/388880/discussions/0/1737760452988573977/?tscn=1581522996#c1737760452991842846). The last step is not complete.

653MB update, it's fixed ;-)
Thanks.

Still weird, though
