This just starts very strong! The ambiance you’ve created sounds very nice but gets a bit hindered by the mixing. I think the biggest gripe might be the distortion you’ve used. It is at times a bit to prominent and creates a to harsh sound for the otherwise very cool sounding ambiance and sound design. Musically this works very well with the given theme and shows how well versed you are with your synths for creating cool sounds that work very well with the very cool music you’re writing. However it feels there could be some improvement in the mixing. Mostly, like said earlier, this has to do with the used distortion that creates some harsher overtones. But Also the use of compression looks like it could be dialled down a bit and let the instruments breathe a bit more. If you like, we could chat a bit more on the discord about it, since this will cutter the critique quit a bit and otherwise these are really cool songs

I wonder what this track has to offer me- WHAT IS THAT MELODY!?!?!?!?!

Great Descent: CHILLS, CHILLS, and MORE CHILLS. That synth lead is absolutely chilling, and all those intense sounds you have in the ambience to contrast the nice synthy, lofi pad aesthetic of the song added so much tension, and kept me on edge the whole time despite my headbanging with those absolutely BASHING, kick drums you had in there. such a groove, such a vibe.

Hubble Vision: It's so pretty, it's so relaxed, but it st HJOLYYYY- sorry the next song came on- anyways- it still has some tension in there with that distortion, it felt more like catching your breath, rather than taking a full-on break, which I thought was really cool! 

Hubble Vision Decision: Okay, Dr. Seuss, I see you. quick question- WHAT KIND OF ANGELIC, UNHOLY DEITY OF CREATION AND ANNIHILATION AM I STANDING BEFORE!?!?!? That deep piano is so imposing, grand, and full of power; it just hits so hard every time, and then that light piano arpeggio makes it so playful and innocent to me at the same time, and that synth lead again is just so beautiful. Can I just say you have a mastery over ambience and sound design, incredible, incredible, incredible work!

Green Sludge Astral Space: whatever all-powerful creation I stood before previously, I have clearly made angry. It started with those fast-paced kicks, which to me felt like a heart-racing, perhaps a panic, or a ferocious rage, and then it sort of chilled out a bit, which to me almost sounded like a reflection of sorts. And might I say to you, my good sir, you have outdone yourself one thousand-fold. This might be my favourite submission, this soundtrack gave me chills every. single. song.

Thank you so much for participating. It was a pleasure to listen to this, fantastic work!!! 10/10 :D 

Great Descent: There is some interesting sound design in this track! The harsh overdriven sounds keep me on edge throughout and make me think that despite the beautiful sweeping pad harmonies, that there is a constant element of danger throughout. 

Hubble Vision: This ambient piece is quite nice as a relaxed track that seems to serve as a menu theme or perhaps a central hub theme. The many bits of artificial sounds fluttering in and out make me think that we are capturing glimpses of alien life as the Hubble scans across the night sky. I really like this piece and I think it’s my favorite of your OST!

Hubble Vision Decision: I like the staticky effect at the beginning and it really helps convey that sense of caution. I really like the transition at the one minute mark and the hit with the thick pads and decayed snare follows so nicely. I think I was left hoping that there would be more of a purity to the sound after this drop, but I suppose the static/overdriven effect continues to serve the purpose of indicating there is uncertainty in the “decision” that needs to be made. Though I do like that there are glimpses of clarity later on that I enjoyed hearing!

Green Sludge Astral Space: The thick kick and bass with the rhythmic elements that have a sort of glooping effect give this space a grungy and dank feel that I think really describe an “astral sludge” area well. The sounds you use clearly convey a sense of decay - similarly I also like the ritardando that also gives the same feeling. The middle section without the percussion is my favorite part and I think it sort of represents the toxic clouds parting briefly so you get a little clarity of the beauty of the area despite its danger.

Overall these tracks have a consistent sound with an emphasis on heavy percussion and alien-like sound design that would give this game a unique and recognizable identity. I loved the pads you used and savored the moments when I could hear the rich harmonies you wrote as a focal point. Nice work with this and thank you for sharing!
