turbine13 - I like that you have what almost sounds like a toy piano as the focal point in this track, I think it helps establish the idea that this character is child-like. To my ears this track feels a little bass heavy, like there's a lot of lower frequencies across the whole mix. If I were to give feedback for this track I'd consider reducing some of those 'muddier' frequencies a bit IMO.

PROCESSING... - Really like that beginning textures, feels quite robot-like. To me this feels like a boss fight with how dark and heavy it feels. Especially given the harmonic movement you used throughout. To me this feels like Turb13 tried to cover for the player after getting spotted, but not in a super convincing manner, and so a big boss fight ensues.

MicrowaveOS - This track in particular has me curious, because the description makes it sound like this character is a friend (or at the very least a temporary ally), but the vibe I get from this track makes it feel like an encounter with a foe. If this is intended to be foreshadowing in your hypothetical game, then well done. If not, maybe consider having some slightly brighter harmony  to make it feel less threatening IMO.

Overall I think this is a neat little soundtrack you put together that feels quite fitting for the game you described. If I were to give feedback on the submission as a whole, I'd say: 1.) Work just a bit more on balancing the volume between the tracks, as I found myself adjusting it throughout my listening, and; 2.) Maybe think more about the context of where these pieces of music would go. This is most definitely an opinion (as is my whole comment) based on just a couple of listens, but I didn't always feel like the tone of the tracks were as fitting to the moment in the game as they could have been. I think if this was tweaked a little bit then it could help connect the two a little more IMO.

Thanks for sharing what you've made, and keep up the good work :)

Thank you for the comprehensive feedback, I'm glad you liked it. I 100% get what you mean about the feel of the song not quite matching my description for MicrowaveOS, and in future that's probably something I'll adjust. 

About the foreshadowing point, I think it was likely a subconscious thing as I always intended for a bit of a betrayal scene at some point followed by a fight against MicrOS.

Also sorry about the volume balance, that's something I could've easily fixed :/
