I love this track, another main contender for a prize.

Very interesting cyberpunk and more sophisticated take on the original theme. I am totally picturing this in a remake of the game set in the future. Great job! 

Developer

Thank you! I'm glad that you like it

Damn, great job, clearly too sci-fi / synth-heavy for the cartoonish world of Mario, but the sound design is awesome, the mood is great for underground, and the pace of the piece great for a 2d platformer. Composition wise it's well balanced and the chord progression + the little chiptunes arpeggios here and there prevent boredom.
Also I recommend you post a link to your submission on the discord, to prevent score penalty happening from having not enough ratings.

Dark, mysterious and sci-fi, with a lot of reminders to the original Mario's theme and sounds. Good job!

Very cool progression. Love the arpeggios. Nice work! Love the more modern take on 8 bit.

This reminds me a lot of portal music, there are some very nice chords and instrumentation in there! The rhythm is great too, well done!

The chord at :18 just tickled my brain in the best way. The whole song was great. Nicely done!

Developer

Thank you! I decided to modulate the music scale and make some different sound using the old/vintage vibes of the game.  Thank you again 😉
