Nice stuff! Reminds me of Will You Snail music. My only criticism would be that the track ended too quickly. I feel like you could have expanded the ending. Including a section with a different texture and melody to complement the rest of the song or something to that effect that could give the listener more. Either way this is great for your first try with this style.
Yeah I would have liked to give it a bigger middle 8 palate cleanse section and/or let it go round a few more times at the end. I just kept it short and sweet this time since it’s a loop. And I didn’t want to keep adding and possibly ruin it yknow?
It’s good that listeners want more though! Could be worse haha
heres what i wrote down while listening to this:
nothing.
this track is just that good
put it in a game and i can vibe with this all day long
hope you win with this track !

this is a very effective composition that's also really well-produced, and considering this is your first time with synth/chiptune, i think this came out really well! i say this as someone who's also pretty new to working with 8-bit-style instruments - i think the couplets starting at 0:52 come off a little harsh compared to the surrounding textures? i wonder if altering the attack a bit might have let the synth lead soar even more.
I was definitely in two minds about how much bite everything should have. My original version was much smoother, with everything dunked in reverb. I went back and made some bits darker and drier at the end. I wanted a bit of grit somewhere in there. I think by that point I'd had enough of fiddling with the synth haha! Good advice
I enjoyed this a lot. A fun piece that really evoked that sense of getting ready to go into battle. Nice work
This is awesome and very unique!
I enjoyed the choice of the sounds for this song.
nice 8 bit music. I'm not sure if I was listening to a boss fight or an adventure
Thunder rumbles, rain pummels the ground, the stage is set for a battle of ages! Two combatants, enemies for more years than they can count, now stand opposite from one another. One of them will not leave this place alive.
"I'm going to enjoy this."

Anyway, here's my submission for the Boss Fight music jam! I had fun with it and I hope you have fun listening! It's my first time doing this fully synth, chip-tune type music, but I think it came together pretty well. More experienced composers, I'd love to hear your feedback in the comments
Cheers!
