Nice chiptune soundtrack! I liked the melodies, even though some of the tracks really need more percussion to round it about. Good job nevertheless!

Baking your thoughts into the video is genius - I wanted to do a retrospective of my own but this idea is way better.

These are faithful chiptunes - I dig the choice of waves and patches used. Composition and melody-wise it is on point - I can easily imagine these being used in a variety of games from the NES-era. I'm particularly fond of the main progression in Castle.

Kicking off Transition with the standard sound we've grown used to up until this point and then taking it literally by changing over to a more FM-based, modern sound was really clever. Seamless enough as well - not a jarring change, but a welcome one. Having this methodology stick for the remainder of the soundtrack is a great idea and does wonders for varying the soundscape.

All in all, great work - solid pieces here! Enjoyed them a lot, and that bonus track was pretty great too; intro progression reminded me somewhat of the early Silent Hill melodic tracks. 

Main Menu: I have a soft spot for LMMS as it was my first DAW. Nice intro track.

Princess: Nice and cute 3/4 track.

A Castle: Cool 5/8! Bass is a little too loud though. 

Battle: That good old NES battle theme feel. I like the rhythm.

A Sign: This is cool! Dark but groovy. 

Transition: Cool bitcrush. Really love the idea of the transition to a more real sound! Reminds me of a few games I really enjoy. 

Main Menu?: Cool reprise of the main menu showing a big in game shift. Again I loved this from games like Bravely Default and Sea of Stars:

A New Light: Really enjoyed the additional section!

Great work!

Lovely retro style tracks :) (my favorite was A New Light) You did an amazing job!!

Nailed the 8 bit vibe, composition is nice, everything fit as a whole. 

Main Menu : Really set the tone but at exactly 1:21 the melody is doing F# while you are playing C major chord with A min on the pad, I was expecting  a switch to a dominant chord but you did not and I think it doesn't quite fit here.

Castle : Great track, composition is pretty cool, bass is way too much present, tone it down a notch and it will amazing.

Rest of the tracks feels nice adn easy to listen to, good job !

Every track felt related and relevant to your overall theme. I especially liked the setup of the "Main Menu" track and it was definitely a favorite of mine! Congrats on making it in and thanks for sharing this!

Oh, LMMS brother! I used to use it a lot before switching to FL studio. Nice interpretation of the theme. I enjoyed listening to this soundtrack. Good job!

It's good that you have used a leitmotiff in your work!

Castle is my favorite one! And I love the creative decisions you've made in Transitions. 

Works like yours make me want to listen to more chiptune music. Thank you!

You absolutely killed this, experience or not. Really well done!

It is plain that you mastered chiptune music! Really liked your submission, lot of good rhythmic ideas, Great job!

Even insofar as some of the tracks are basic, they are very cohesive and adhere vividly to the theme which is something you honestly did better than me and a lot of the experienced jammers.  

Battle, in particular, was really delightful.  Like one of my favorite tracks of the jam.  It pulled off that absurd motif and had really a catchy melody and bassline and the layering was restrained but kept it interesting. And the effects in Transition were satisfying.  And the waltzy call-and-response in A New Light felt nice and warm 

I said it before and I'll keep saying it until someone made me shut up : chiptune is a really hard kind of music to make. And yet, you did it very well ! You said you are pretty new to using daw, yet you already have a characteristic way of composing, a personnal way of doing chiptune, that's impressive as fock ! 

I like the high attacks/slower fade-ins/lower velocity (whichever it may be) on some of the instruments that really give some dynamics to some of the instruments. My favorite track is a sign, I am kind of addicted to that one low note that repeats. This theme is pretty cool, and I think the tracks are pretty cohesive and I am able to recognize the leitmotifs on a first listen (I am not good at that) so I would say that is a sign of good clarity and composition. Overall, this was a nice listen, Great work!

This is soooo good! The ideas here are awesome! I really believe every track here at least has the potential to be great, if it's not already.

It's easy to hear you have a solid grasp on composition and music theory. I love your use of time signatures (I'm a sucker for 5/4) and interesting harmony.

Also, a special shoutout to the battle theme for being so groovy it hurts!

I'm really glad you were able to be submit this ost, and I reaaally hope you decide to finish and polish it, 'cause it's genuinely fantastic! 

Should have WAY more ratings. I followed you on Soundcloud and expecting to hear more from you!!

Always great to see a fellow chiptune entry! It's nice to see how creative others can be in this genre and it definitely inspires me to try new things with my music as well. I'm glad you got to submit cuz this is a really nice soundtrack where all the tracks feel connected to one another. Also that battle theme goes hard. Good stuff!

really loved the different iterations as it goes from chiptune to real, thats such a cool idea

yo! i’m a sucker for chiptune, so i enjoyed this ost! the chiptune is very game boy-esque, and then there’s some introduction of more real sounding, acoustic instruments. i read you project description after listening and saw that that was intentional! super cool! honestly pretty impressive for someone still getting familiar with daws. my favorite tracks were the princess and a new light

I am not a particular fan of chiptune but it always amazes me how much someone is able to make with these limited sounds! Good work! Love that bass in Battle track, good punch!
