==Music video== The theme tune for the game ("War!") was written by the lead game designer [[Jon Hare]], with musician [[Richard Joseph]]. Vocals were sung by Hare himself. A [[music video]] of the song was put together to promote the original release.<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_LSTO7vpJg4 | title=Cannon Fodder - FMV Intro (War! Never been so much fun!) with lyrics | website=[[YouTube]] | date=13 October 2016 }}</ref> Shot over just one day and for a total budget of [[Pound sterling|Β£]]500, it featured the entire team dressed up in military uniforms, an assortment of masks (including one of [[Mario]] and [[Donald Duck]]) and toy guns. The version of the music track is more complete than the one that appeared on the 16-bit versions and was recorded professionally. In fact, the menu screen track is also a pared down version of a proper song, featuring studio-standard vocals. Both of these tracks were written and performed by [[Jon Hare]], as were many of the other songs featured in Sensible's games.
