Just so you know I will have to watch this guide every single time I upload a new game music pack! Just uploaded my second pack and I needed the guide... again 🤣 Thanks a lot for making it!
dude this is such a great tutorial. You have the personality of "one of the lads", which is a rarity in the realms of nerdy tutorials. Actually fun to listen to verses the usual "hmm is this guy gonna shoot up a nightclub"
@@makegamemusic i'm just starting i made my first pack using garageband staock sounds for the melodies and a few splices drum loops i'm trying to focus on RPG Adventure Music right now and would love to see stuff in that lane. i'm watching your Jrose11 Theme video now
When I want to publish music for the Unity Asset Store, do I need to license the music in my name? Or is it enough to just upload it to the Unity Asset Store? Also, do I need to share it on platforms like Spotify? Looking forward to your response, with love...
It's been a while since I last uploaded so things may have changed, but I uploaded under my business name so you should be able to call yourself what you like. You do need to fill out a tax form in order to get paid though. And no, you don't need to link anything to other platforms (though it might be wise to to get more sales). Hope this helps!
@@makegamemusic Thank you for the information. In that case, I'll upload directly to the Asset Store. Thanks again and have a great day! Stay healthy :)
Hey! Great tutorial! You mentioned that you don’t create any of the cover art or the different styles of graphics. Could you share who does that for you?
At the time I used premade art from some stock art website. These days I use Ai image generation. A lot of people use Fiverr to get art, but nost of them are using Ai these days so are just acting as a middleman.
@@makegamemusic oh absolutely! And what about that cool graphic effects like the cd look, or a graphic on a box look? I tried doing that but man, turned out it’s super complicated :D
@@JakubPietras Good question, it was definitely a paid service but I can't for the life of me remember what it was. We also tried a photoshop template and never got it to look quite right.
A question, what is the best way to upload additional songs to a pack? I've seen the upgrade option but should the new version contain all the tracks or just the new ones? Major or Lite version? I intend to offer my upgrades for free to increase the value for existing customers as well as new ones.
Good tutorial! A bit of a hazzle it seems when it comes to the upload process, but I'll guess you get used to it after some time :) Question; I have music that might work wel for videogames, however I'm using Content ID on my tracks (Identifyy), is that "allowed" when it comes to the Unity Asset Store?
Cheers beebee! I don’t see why it would be a problem but you’d probably have to warn the buyer. I’d probably contact unity support too just to confirm they’re fine with it.
@@makegamemusic Thanks for your answer! Yes, I think I'll go ahead and contact the support just to make sure that it's "ok". I know from experience that the gaming industry can differs some when it comes to PRO:s and similar :)
@@makegamemusic Great and you check my music on marketplaces from me if you want! From CMAFVG (Communauty Music Assets For Video Games) www.youtube.com/@cmafvg2297 I'm Rafdows, leader of that communauty :-)
@@remixedcat I’d like to hear your stuff, I’ve never had anything rejected (other than technicalities that have been resolved). If I can help I’d be more than willing.
Unity rejects my music because I have not set up a publisher website. Which websites does Unity support? If I set up a website from Godaddy, will the problem be solved?
Nice one for doing it, it is a pain though! What number in the queue are you on the site? I seem to remember mine taking well over a month from the time I submitted.
@@remixedcat I haven't had any music rejected. From what I gather, alot of the rejections come from other types of assets that might break a Unity game. It's a bit silly we are in the same queue as all of these but at least you have done it now!
@@makegamemusic I'm just a regular producer at the moment very interested in making music for film and games...I'm clueless on how to break into game music and just typed music asset for games and saw this video.. I checked your website for the price of a one in one session.. I'll have to wait till payday to book an half hour
thanks for this video! i really enjoyed when you read the perjury thing and looked at the camera with that face. had me and my mate dying on this end
Just so you know I will have to watch this guide every single time I upload a new game music pack! Just uploaded my second pack and I needed the guide... again 🤣 Thanks a lot for making it!
Glad it's useful! And yeah, I made it partly to remind myself when I upload any assets in the future!
Thanks I feel a lot better now when I'm not the only one who can't remember this 😂

Haha I am very glad I dont give off that vibe! Thanks for the compliment mate.
Thanks so much for this!!
Thanks just submitted my first pack GOD bless
Nice one, hope you manage to do well with your new pack!
@@makegamemusic Thanks! Just Subscribed!
@@blerdzimmer really appreciate it, if there’s ever any tutorials you need, would be interested to hear them. All the best!

So helpful always forget how to do this each time i go in lol. Thanks!
Thanks for such a detailed instruction🙂👍
Glad it was clear to follow and good luck with your assets!

Great! How to update a project ? (Add new tracks or different master/mixes versions of the album )
If I ever do that myself, I’ll be sure to record a video. I seem to remember you have to make a brand new version each time, they don’t make it easy!

Thank you for that so clear explanation, keep going to make good tracks and good tutorial!

I am glad it is helpful to you. Thank you for your encouragement too! Lots more video tutorials in the new year.

They need a separate option for music and images that we don't have to have the whole engine for!!
I totally agree, it is a nightmare but view it as a good thing. You get less competition, because others aren’t willing to do this!
@@makegamemusic true... how strict are they w content and how much do they approve
@@remixedcat I’d like to hear your stuff, I’ve never had anything rejected (other than technicalities that have been resolved). If I can help I’d be more than willing.
Unity rejects my music because I have not set up a publisher website. Which websites does Unity support? If I set up a website from Godaddy, will the problem be solved?
Hi, I can definitely say 1&1 ionus works. I can't see why GoDaddy wouldn't though.
Just did this and da hek they take 20 biz days to review submissions... ouch!!!!
Nice one for doing it, it is a pain though! What number in the queue are you on the site? I seem to remember mine taking well over a month from the time I submitted.
@@makegamemusic 2300 something ugh
@@remixedcat Ugh indeed. Think that was very similar to when I did it. I just forgot about it so it was a nice suprise when it finally got through!
@@makegamemusic hope it works cuz that was a lot of effort n pain. How strict are they??
@@remixedcat I haven't had any music rejected. From what I gather, alot of the rejections come from other types of assets that might break a Unity game. It's a bit silly we are in the same queue as all of these but at least you have done it now!
That's way too much work and they have to approve it too...
this is soooo confusing...i'll probably have to follow step by step
It was a pain to work out! Definitely follow along but by bit if it’s your first upload. I wish they made it easier for audio assets!
