How does it fit the theme?
The character is running away from his town, as the people there don't believe in him or believe he is a nuisance to them. The character runs to the forbidden forest to originally get lost and start a new life, but he soon discovers later in this imaginary game that he could save this town and the world.

Very well rounded soundtrack. I love the subtle intro with the nature sounds. River Reflections is my favorite, great watery feel and I love the guitar part there, such nice chords. Cyborg monkey is really unexpected and absolutely quirky. Thanks for sharing!

Last track really surprised me! Really Cool one!

Great listen - each track has its own distinct qualities and tell their parts of the game's story really well. I particularly liked the "Title Screen" track which was almost magical. Amazing.

Nicely done, loved the 80's chord progression on Running sense, river reflections also have some neat chord progressions, really well mixed and balanced. Super cool tracks

Nice tracks! I like the percussions in your title music, and of course, the cyber monkey music is really fun!

Great submission! I love the bells and strings incorporated in to the composition. This is a very good fit for the theme of this jam.

This is a wonderful soundtrack. The opening is amazing. I really love those swelling synth pads. They really gave me goosebumps the first time they come in. Somehow they make me nostalgic for a game that never existed. The flute then forms a nice addition which complements it really well too.

Also really love the combination of synth brass with piano in the overworld theme. I think those two are definitely my favorites in this soundtrack.

The guitar sound in River Reflections is also great.

Unrelated to the music itself, but I also think that screen capturing the actual DAW was a nice touch.

Thank you for your input I am glad you enjoyed it! It's also a goal of mine to make music sound nostalgic and give that feeling. :)

Great entry! I love the exaggerated pitch tremolo effect on your orchestra instruments that mix really well with the electronic elements. Each track was unique but ended up building on the same foundation which gave the overall soundtrack a good sense of progression.
