A bit of 'Continue?' at the arcade vibes to this one

Submitted(+1)

The track is pretty catchy! It reminds me old arcade games, it's cool! I would suggest making more complete ending to make the track even better! Now the ending seems to be a bit chaotic, but maybe it's on purpose? Overall I like the vibe, nicely done!

Yeah, it was a bit hard to figure out what to do with the ending.  I was just kinda noodling around and accidentally introduced a key change (I think?), which was a bit hard to write around. I could probably write something better with some more music theory knowledge.

Oh, I see. Yes, music theory is a necessary part. For someone who doesn't know much of a music theory, your composition is really well-made. Keep going!

Nicely composed, has a core structure and theme. However I was prepared for the melody to take an epic turn at 0:13, but it didn't quite go for that.

That's a great point! I was trying to give it a bit more oomph at that part, but I probably could have done more with the melody there.

It's probably due to the effect of trying to keep songs to the 20-second limitation. Anyhow, there's really nice stuff going on in this track like the guitar, bass, right side bells etc. Nice work.

Hahah, thanks. I was struggling to come up with a title for a while, so I just googled "Bell related idioms", and then it came to me (:
