Description
What is Shepard tone?
A Shepard tone is a auditory illusion that creates the feeling of a sound continually ascending or descending in pitch, while in reality, its actual frequency is looped and never rises above a certain limit (This exact trick was used for the endless stairs in Super Mario 64)
Why did you used pitch up and not shepard tone?
This trick can only be pulled off with fixed wave timings, which is why it cannot be done in a live game but I tried to replicate the effect anyway just by pitching up individual sounds
A similar mod already exists for The Binding of Isaac, which is where I got the idea from. All credit for the original concept goes to IsaacGuru
