What do you like about your game?
This was my first time making a game, so I had a ton of fun making everything, especially the music.

Hi, I just finished playing your game. I want to ask you if you composed the first piano melody or if you took it from somewhere (if yes, please let me know the name of the piece). The music choice was just beautiful. It was really impactful together with the overall atmosphere. Really great job and good luck! Loved it man <3333333
Thank you for playing! I made all the music in the game. In fact, the last piece was actually the first thing I made in the beginning of the jam, even before I had a concrete idea for the game. The first piece's name is "Happier Times" (I know, I'm very original with names). I'd be willing to upload a youtube video for the song or something if that interests you.
It would be really great, I really loved that piece, very beautiful, you should be proud of yourself, like a lot. Let me know if you plan to do anything with it, I'd love to be able to hear it <3333
Glad that you love the music! I just updated my profile page with a link to SoundCloud. I also extended the piece a bit. Enjoy!
Just saw your comment, I'm going to check it out rn, thank you so much <33
I can't say how much I appreciate it. I don't know why and how but I fell in love with this track, I think the title describes perfectly the emotion it unleashes in me when listening to it, a mix of melancholy and a sparkle of hope, I know it sounds kinda stoopid, but I really love this piece. Did you study in a conservatory or something, you are really amazing. I hope you go far with your skills <333
Damn. I love that you love it! I'm honestly not that experienced in music (didn't study in a conservatory, but took piano lessons years ago), and this piece was something I cooked up loosely inspired by a flash game soundtrack that game stuck in my head as a child (Aether by Edmund McMillen, in particular "Conclude" from the OST). Even now it gives me a bit of nostalgia when I think it. I'm very glad that you love the music as much as I loved making it!
Also not to disappoint you, but I've honestly barely made any music before. I just tinker around in a DAW (I just use Cakewalk for now because it's free), and try to get the piece to sound right. It very much encourages me to learn more on how to produce good music, that you enjoyed it so much :D
Wow, guess you are very talented then, you should definitely continue learning, you are amazing at it, keep it up <333
Got me with the feels
Becomes a bit tedious in the second half, but overall a great emotional experience.
