📈 Rating 

• Credibility: How well does it fit the game and area.

• Impression: Did you liked the music, this is purely subjective and you should feel free to give 5 stars even if the music don't fit the game at all.

• Composition: Is the music well crafted when it comes to : melodic development, harmony, conterpoint, structure, transition between parts... (I know it can be challenging to rate ambient music fairly on this criteria).

• Creativity: Does the piece sound unique to you, does it pack a lot of personality, did it subverted your expectations in a good way.

• Sound quality: How good is the mixing, mastering? Does the samples, VST, synths... sound appropriate and seems well mastered?

Final ranking will be set by raw score, unadjusted by the Under Median Score Penalty Algorithm.
