Strange Movement goes in a really intriguing direction around the 0:58 second mark, lovely contrast to the beginning and kept me interested for more. Final Hour is more ear candy, the tension created of the piano rhythm around 1:30 or so is really powerful. Personally, I would have put the snare drums a bit more forward/louder in the mix on that one. Regardless, very enjoyable tracks that would fit the game you described perfectly. Nice job!
