Description
We create soundtrack for sci-fi horror-based game where player need to go outside and fix their space station. However, the space isn't really empty.

The core concept of this entire project is to make an album that deliver the story of the game. So this album is better when listen in correct order.

How does it fit the theme?
We mainly focused on creating music that giving space vibe, so it suited to the image theme. Also during the track there are background effect that eventually passing by listener's ears to tell them that they are not alone in space.

Each song's tone color is really cool! And the idea of using sound effect in each track is nice. Great work!

RIP Emily.

I enjoyed the soundtrack's cutesy yet horror vibe, solid production, and instrumentations that are on point with what you're trying to convey. "Solar Storm" was a super fun ASMR-ish track and detuning at the end of "Poltergeist" is a nice touch.

My only critique would be for the main melodic instrument in "Kickoff" to evolve more meaningfully like the change in its tone or adding other instruments like how you did in "Eternity" which although similar, didn't feel as repetitive.

Edit: Forgot to mention that the run-time is also impressive for just one week!
