Description
first song is chiptune, i had stuff like sonic rush, jet set radio, and tony hawk's pro skater in mind, games where you're constantly on a timer.
the second one is the same melody as the first, but with a piano, and more chill, like for either a game over screen or a moment where you're just chilling.
Theme:

How does it fit the theme?
i thought about time and games, so arcade games because they're quick, also thought about sonic because it's fast and there's a timer, so i tried something with breakbeats like the sonic rush soundtrack, and used a metronome at some parts, because, yknow, tick tock.
i had the melody done as just a midi before doing both tracks, for that i looked at the image, which to me seemed more calm, so i tried a melody that could work as both a faster song and a slower one.
for the second one i wanted to do something like the catherine soundtrack, specifically the song that plays when you're in the bar.
i wanted something for a situation like that, or like the private room in death stranding, with the first song representing gameplay and the second just chilling, one where your time is running out and one where you have all the time in the world.
