It's so spacey and cathartic! I love the synths used and how it comes together as a bop :]

Developer

Thank you!!! :D

Your break chopping sounds great! Agree with folks in how the sections can feel a little separate at times - almost like shifting through individual stages on a single level. In a game with visual transitions I think it wouldn't feel jarring at all.

I really dig the 2:20 synth, the section as a whole, and your style slaps!

Developer

Thank you!!

love this!!! i like how in the first song it switches to a different part every couple seconds and every part is like its own style, great work!

Developer

Thank you so much!

I love the mix of acoustic and chiptune/synth voices! Mix-wise, I think the initial chiptune voice(s) could come down a little to let the piano come through. The guitar a little before 2mins is awesome though, and all the tempo changes provide a lot of variety that keeps things interesting. Some of the sections felt a little disjointed to me, it might be nice to have more bridging material between them. Great work!

I agree with you, once the jam is over I think I’ll try to really perfect the song. Thank you!

Really nice track. It's varied, cohesive and the progression is really smooth. It kept all my attention and I even listen to the bonus cut (nice once too!).

Developer

Thank you so much!! That bonus was originally going to be in the final song, but I wasn’t completely satisfied with how it was sounding and couldn’t figure out how to transition into it nicely

What a freaking bop. Felt like I was shooting asteroids in space. No notes.

Thank you!

This is great!

The Amen break is always a really solid backbone to any piece!

I also like that there was basically multiple songs in one here all with their own vibes.

With how good you are at making music I have a purely aesthetic suggestion. Naming and coloring the different instruments and tracks/patterns not only makes the project look prettier, it also makes things easier to sort IMO.+

Developer

Thank you so much! I'll definitely keep that in mind for future projects :D

This is great! The cover art is exactly what I had in mind when listening to this

Developer

I’m not much of an artist so I’m glad I did a good job on it!

That was phenomenal, I loved it !! I could just hear the RPG in the instruments and the chord progression haha, great work <3

Developer

Thank you!! I really appreciate it :D

Sounds great! I love the mix of emotions conveyed throughout the song, and the choice of instruments and rhythms makes the whole thing nice and cohesive. This was a nice listen!
