Thank you for playing, I appreciate it.

Thank you for listening to the tracks. I agree It was a bit of a stretch but I did try to incorporate the challenges . I had fun attempting a music jam. 

And thanks for the kind words about the novel! I appreciate it.

Hi no worries,  the tracks submitted to the jam are part of a bigger existing game soundtrack of my game that is in development with the demo out.  The tracks on the public playlist are not part the jam submission. 

The 2 tracks (Demon's pulse ) and (Look Deeper)  were composed specifically during jam period and will be used in the full game at a later stage. They are not listed publicly yet ,  but you can access them from the links provided in the game submission page or downloaded directly.

Thank you, appreciate it.

Thank you so much for taking the time to listen to the tracks.  I really appreciate the thoughtful feedback. I’ll definitely continue working on the tracks and make sure to correct everything before using in game.

Thank you so much for playing and your kind words, I appreciate it! The full game is hopefully going to be released before end of year.

Thank you so much for taking the time to provide such detailed feedback. I did the mixing in Protools and the composing in Ableton so in Ableton itself it won't show the mixing part. That being said I will definitely try implementing the tips you gave me to improve the tracks . I have a long way to go but I'm loving the learning process. 

 Thanks again!

Thank you so much for taking the time to listen and for the detailed feedback, I really appreciate it.

You’re absolutely right about Demon's Pulse leaning too heavily to the left; I did pan some elements, but most of the main melodic and rhythmic parts ended up living on that side, which can definitely get fatiguing over a full listen. I only noticed after you said it. I’ll rework it before using it in‑game. This is my first original game OST, so I really appreciate you pointing these things out, it helps a lot.

Regarding the jam theme, since this is music for a real game rather than something written  for the jam, I didn't take many liberties with the narrative description. That said, I tried to reflect the "Mechs" theme angle more through the choice of instruments and the structure of the musical challenges.

Thanks again!

Wow! This has to be my favorite Album. The tracks convey the theme with emotion and take me through a wonderful journey. Amazing work.

I liked your unique take on the theme!

Static Requiem and Battle against the sky raider were my favorites! Nice album overall!

I liked Breaching the corrupted temple the most! Cool soundtrack!

I really liked Rising Tide! Very cool track!

I liked how the tracks took me on a journey. My favorites were Against and City of Iron. 

Magnetic Drone and Cyber maze were my favorites. Really cool tracks overall!

MinOrl was my favourite! It would make such a good  battle theme. Overall the tracks gave me a retro rpg feel which I like.

Thank you I appreciate it!

Thank you! The game is a blend of drama and horror. It deals with psychological themes and has demons and Djinn.  But  I would say the focus is on healing which is why the soundtrack leans more into emotions.

My submission consists of two tracks. I wasn’t able to finalize an additional piece in time for the deadline, but I approached the given challenges as fully as I could within these cues, and I’d be grateful for any feedback, even if the entry doesn’t meet the qualification requirements. Thank you

I hope it wasn't too scary at night ! Thank you so much for playing , for the thoughtful comment and appreciating the art and music ^^

Thank you for your reply, yes I was talking about my own music. Looking forward to participating !

I loved the world building and the calming atmosphere of the game. It's a thought provoking, bittersweet story that's sad yet comes with hope.  Funny enough I also thought the protagonist was female until more than halfway through. 

Will be trying more of your games. Best of luck with the Awards!

Hi, I just wanted to confirm that original  pieces composed in the jam may be used for an upcoming game release? If it happens like months after the jam. And the piece is composed during the jam period of course.

Thank you so much for playing and for leaving such a thoughtful comment, it honestly made my day! 

I’m really happy you enjoyed the art, and that the story pulled you in. The full game is planned for release by end of this year!

Also, thank you for your feedback about some of the phrases feeling a bit overused. That’s super helpful, and I’ll be going back over the dialogue to make it feel more natural for the demo update I'm planning to release. 

Thanks again, truly appreciate it!”

Thank you,  I appreciate it. For now for this project I'm doing the main writings/composing, but once this is done and for future jams why not it's possible.

First of all thank you so much for taking the time to play the demo and providing feedback, I truly appreciate it. 

The theme of harvest is intended more figuratively. The idea that repressed emotions and childhood experiences are the seeds that later shape the protagonist's life. The story is about confronting those inner wounds for a chance to reap a different future. The demo only hints at this but the full game will lean more into this arc.

That said, I understand your point about the jam's  interpretation of "harvest" and I respect your perspective. I'll keep this in mind for future jams. Thanks again for the kind words about the art and potential.

Thank you I appreciate it!

ah got it thank you for your clarification and assistance

the text box file dimensions is 960x301. when i plugged as is, it was small. 

Are you sure the size of assets is for 1920x1080? only the main menu background is correct, the rest of the assets seem to be for 1080*720? could you confirm
