I absolutely love this.  It feels too energetic for Animal Crossing, but I still love it.  It feels like Dillinger Escape Plan decided to make a happy jazz song.

Total banger. Amazing piece. Wondering how you managed to pack the song with so much complexity in every field and it somehow still can work as an ambient track. Of course, maybe too much tension and dynamics for the game and area of the jam (not that I would not play with it in the background), but you know, who cares... Thank you for the great experience.

Energetic and crazy! An original take that is never boring, even if that means it doesn't fit the theme it was very funny to hear.

Wow this is great!! The writing is really impressive, I could see it fitting a kind of fishing mini game. Packed with lots of great ideas here.

This sounds so ECSTATIC and CRAZY, I love it! Idk why but I can imagine Thundercat jamming on this one. Though im not sure if this matches the games OST.

It's all over the place... I personally dig it! Between Zappa and Cardiacs.

Awesome piece, yet it don't makes much sense for this jam.

Wooh that feels like a Nintendo theme of a classic JRPG game, hectic composition and fast slick lines answering each other, drums carrying the vibe and the attention, different instruments calling and answering each other, clear divisions between different parts/themes .. great composition and arrangement !

It might be a little too much for that specific vibe/theme in my opinion, I can't picture myself on a sunny beach of AC, but more like in a turn based combat against an enemy that has various phases - yep big Undertale vibes. Maybe having a catchy theme that comes back again and again, modulated from time to time, or taken over by different instruments, in a smoother and clearer way, would make this feel the vibe of the theme a bit more ?

I feel like the mids/high mids could use a bit of tough love and be taken down a notch, as they seem to mask the highs and lows - in my humble opinion.

An entry that I loved, super fun to break down and to listen to :-D

Reminds me of the wii soundtrack, which is pretty on track with the nintendo vibes sksk. I really enjoyed listening to it, awesome work :3

Really liked this, the fast changing nature gave me some Frank Zappa vibes! Just felt on the first listen that the first half of the song was a bit too frantic at parts, but that might just my subjective feel. Good stuff!

That is a crazy submission I'm super impressed. A ton of great ideas, a bit too much in a way, but the quality of the writing is great!

Oh. All over the place, reminds me some kind of free form jazz) Overall interesting idea
