Track description | Creative process
I changed up things using Famitracker instead of FL Studio which I usually use, I was initially going to replicate the simplicity of the original track, it was basically going to be all like the start of the current song, but I had too much fun making it, so it ended up sounding like that

Wow, really well done! Very nice sound, very nice composition
The intro is a bit too long but overall a solid chiptune track.
I really like the harmonies. Satisfying chiptune that fits the theme. Nice work!
Spooky tune ! Fits very well with a shaddy underground level, nice one ! I would be curious to see thoses ideas even more developped, good job !
The intro is so long-winded, especially for a song that is supposed to loop. What comes after is so good though! To me it matches the level super well, maybe slighly too "haunted house".
Good chiptune sounds, the intro feels too long and empty, but then the tracks take off and with percussions and the other sounds this becomes a pretty solid entry. Good job!
I think for something more directly inspired by the original work you did a good job! I just wish that the intro was a bit shorter, as because of the lack of percussion and other instruments around it it was a bit hard to find the pulse and overall feel of the song in those first 30 seconds. Once it got going though i really enjoyed this, and liked the... creative melody at the end :)
Cool take, liked when the build up started with the percussions. Cool to see that you went for probably the limitation of the era using a limited amount of tracks.
Really liked the tremolo and crescendos in the second pulse channel, really added a lot to the "spooky" vibes.
