So easy, so probably illegal, but so fun

I have a very simple notion for an addon.

1. When you have a breath bar, at all, begin playing the theme music from the underwater Sonic the Hedgehog world.
2. When the breath bar gets down to about 10 seconds, play the "about to run out of air" music from the same world, up to and including the bubbles sound effect when the timer runs out.
3. If the player does something that causes the breath bar to go back up, play the "gulp" noise that Sonic made when getting air.

I think this would greatly improve gameplay for all of us who played Sonic a lot.

Go play Sonic the hedge hog if you like it so much

The funny thing about this is that I'd probably be less likely to inadvertently drown; those old Sonic instincts die hard.

I think it's a fantastic idea.

Hardest thing would be getting the sound clips... and those would probably be illegal to use.

Otherwise, Soundtrack allows you assign custom music and sounds to events. I don't recall if it presented that many options for underwater, but probably worth a look.

I may actually try my hand at doing that. This whole idea's put a bit of a bug in my head now.

Search YouTube ... there is drowning music on there. I too like the idea. Memories.

I'll just rip my own; I'd rather not rely on YouTube sound quality. Yes, I'm anal-retentive. If I'm gonna finally get an incentive to jump into LUA coding, I'm gonna do it right, by God.
