Description
Genre: A mixture of epic erchestration with some analog synths.

Songs descriptions:
(download file to get the full "timestamped" descriptions!)

- INTRO: (Curiosity Cave)
One day you find a strange-looking cavern, with no hesitation, you enter to discover what this place is all about.

- Water Garden:
After some time processing what the hell just happened, you start exploring and it seems that you are in a type of big garden.

Everything is themed around water and the color blue. There is also deer-looking creatures.

- Air Garden:
Another garden, this time everything is very bright and with very little color. Fluffy creatures inhabit this place, and this time they notice you. They kinda look like friendly sheeps!

- Fire Garden:
Oh boy... let's say that this one is not very... peaceful.

Everything is hot, there's magma all over the place and the creatures here don't look as friendly as the last ones.

- OUTRO (My Way Back):
Finally, you wake up in mars. You're suit is surprisingly fixed and behind you is the entrance of the cave.

Message from the artist:
This was a very fun process, I hope you like it! <3

I really recommend you to download the files instead of listening on soundcloud, the file has a full timestamped description from all the songs!

Theme

Panspermia (Πανσπερμία)
Picture theme

How does it fit the theme?
Pansermia inspired the angels and garden creatures; the picture inspired the gardens.

A fascinating combination of orchestral samples and chip tune. Each track carries its emotion really well too.

I can see you getting top 3 with these tracks. Quality, Variety,  The ability to do perfect back-flips.

Developer

Thanks for your kind words!

Really nice OST, love all the different vibes that match really well with each tracks intended use, and still stays very coherent as a collection of tracks

Developer

Thank you!
It's a relief that you found coherence on the album... I was worried that the tracks were a bit much too different. None of them really have musical similarities, like motifs.

like how the tracks from the diferent gardens start with the same notes and then they continue on their respective paths , i feel the undertale vibes in water garden <3.

Developer

I'm honored that you felt Undertale vibes hahah
Thanks for the comment! <3

First of all, interesting that you did not set the game in another galaxy 5000 years from now, but Mars 2028, it made this real. I also liked the variety of the tracks. Well done!

Thank you for your comment! <3

Actually, when I was figuring out the lore about this project, I imagined that the hole that you fall in on mars is a portal to some place that was left out by a superior ancient species. Like, they were so advanced that they created beautiful planets just for fun hahah

But after reading your comment, I though hmmmm... wouldn't it be nice if this advanced ancient species actually evolved/was born on Mars? And after they got like, REALLY advanced they came back and left gardens in honor of their first planet??

Very good buildup in Curiosity Cave. It's the most melancholic track of the five so it's my favorite of them all.

Developer

Thank you so much!!

Hey! Just checking, did you listened to the songs on Soundcloud or did you download one of the files?

Submitted

Listened on Soundcloud.

Developer

When you listened to the songs, I had forgot to add the songs descriptions on this rating page. (unless you visited the itch.io page, there were already descriptions there and you can ignore what I'm saying lol)

If you think that knowing more about the tracks would change your listening experience, I would appreciate if you take the time and re-listened them. It's no problem if you are not willing to do it, I'm the one that forgot to put the descriptions here anyways xD

Sorry for the inconvenience and thanks for your time ~

Fantastic entry. Water garden is my favorite - you can really feel a sense of space and scope listening to it. I also got Steven-Universe vibes from that track. The whole collection is so playful, and I love the different screencaps with the angels in them. The art and effort here shines through in every track. Beautiful, ambient yet melodic work. Huge fan! <3

Developer

Thanks for the kind words! I feel very honored that you got SU vibes hahah
