Thank you! I'm glad you enjoyed it!

A project I'm working on includes a soundtrack. I could easily add the audio files as its own download, but I'm considering adding a Bandcamp download code instead - people could add it to their larger Bandcamp library, and stream it from any device without having to copy files around.

Is there a way to add unique codes and/or files to Itch purchases?

Ooh, very catchy. I like that you went two different directions with this!

Oh, this is a really fun one. It feels really cinematic, with the way simple ideas are expanded on so much through each song. I also really liked how much guitar you used.

The first song felt a little dissonant, which I suppose is the point. It really got the creep factor across. The second one was definitely more harmonic, and made for a nice contrast. I could see it playing over a scene where some big secret or conspiracy involving the alien is revealed.

This is probably the longest single track I've seen submitted to this jam, so points for that!

I'm not sure how I feel about this one, though. It definitely feels pretty lonely, although on my first listen I had a hard time following along with the song. It's difficult to tell when phrases start or end, and there's very little repetition, which gives it a very stream-of-consciousness type of feeling - which could be either a good thing or a bad thing, depending how you look at it.

Always cool to hear someone record their music live! I like how you leaned into the imperfections of the recording, it gave the soundtrack a unique texture. You also took a really cool direction with the theme here.

One thing I'll point out is the battle theme feels like it just fizzles out, rather than coming to a proper conclusion. I'm not sure if that's because of the time limit or not, and I'm not sure how I'd fix that, but it might be something to think about next time.

This is a really fun listen. The first two tracks really sell the mystery and wonder of meeting new life.

Through Space actually reminds me of Marble Blast. If this were a real game, it would definitely elevate the experience and make it easier to get into the flow.

Whoa, this is awesome!

I love how much you used the sine lead. It really gives the soundtrack a cheerful whistle-y feel, without being too whimsical for the darker tracks. I especially liked the Space Kraken theme, between the 12/8 time and the rock organ.

I do agree with the previous comment that it sometimes feels derivative of its inspirations, but it was at least original enough that I wasn't picturing Kirby or Pokemon as I listened.
