Love the instrument choice, this is a very cute track. It is a little repetitive but I personally like the exploratory feel of the track, like you're just walking about the island finding somthing to do. Great work!

Pleasant job on this, it's a cute track. I might agree on repetition, but it definitely works as bg music. The medieval mention is interesting, I also thought somewhat egyptian, which I wouldn't think fits but kind of does. I do like the bongos too, and the sectional variation here. Very very cute art!

The way your arrangement is built and the choice of instruments make me think of 8bit music or chiptunes, but with regular instruments, that's an interesting take on the theme !

This track is something different and that is a plus, I liked the bongos, they were a good sound choice! Still, some sounds and harmonic choices makes it a bit too sad and melancholic, I liked the first part more. Maybe that was your intent? Good job anyway!

Some nice guitar melodies. Interesting second section, certainly has a different vibe.

It sounds very medieval to me from 0:33 to 1:05.

I concur, a different choice of sounds could have helped a lot

Great job on everything. It's lovely that you also made the art yourself, adds a ton of character! The composition is a tiny it samey but I feel like repetition is not a problem for background music. Nice job overall.

Fits the theme quite good!

I really enjoyed this!

My only real criticism is the timbre of the instruments did not do the composition the justice it deserves, imo. Hopefully you might get a chance to track these parts with live instruments one day!

Thank you for sharing this :)
