Why There’s No BGM in Stretch

You may notice that Stretch has no background music. That’s intentional.

I decided early on to use only environmental sound effects—wind, traffic, voices, school bells—to create atmosphere. I felt that BGM would overwrite the subtle tension or quietness I wanted players to feel.

The result is something quieter, maybe even uncomfortable at times—but that’s exactly the mood I was going for. Let the silence speak.
