RELYT'S PROFILE

Almost all of your tracks are like 30 seconds long.The longer ones tend to loop or have some repeating bridge or something. But, you're always writing in the short form. I know that a lot of classic games had repeating 50-second loops, but I think that game music can do better these days. It's challenging to write pieces with several movements and all that, but it's also very rewarding and you end up with a much better product. An indie game soundtrack for a short amateur game with only 8 or 9 4-minute-long tracks is better received than the same thing with 30 1-minute-long tracks.

This is not true at all. The only 30 second track is the victory track. All of the other ones (aside from perilous road which is 58sec and Senga Woods which is 48sec) are >1 minute. Also, I've seen some midi's that look long, but repeat themselves over twice creating the illusion of length. I did not do this, as it seems like cheating. Anyways, thanks a ton for the critique. I'll definitely keep it in my head the next time I do game music.

As for the silly midi's, Anvil Studio's about all a poor highschool student can afford right now. If anybody would like to purchase a pretty keyboard and expensive music software for me...be my guest. As for now I'll stick with my trackpad for clicking notes into.

Contrary to popular rumor, I didn't make the music for Inside. I only made the title song.

Lennon, very sylized. What sort of game will that be?

So, what did you guys want? A collaborative "atmosphere" "game" (I'm thinking a haunted house that you could just wander around in or something)

I would like this.

The battles in this game take WAY too long. Perhaps there could be a different mechanic for hero-enemy combat. I quit playing in the first two rounds because I hated the battles.
