Theme (enemy)

Gloo

Correlation to theme
I like to imagine Gloo is the kind of boss where the battle starts and you think "aw he's so cute, I almost don't even wanna fight him" and then he immediately wipes your entire party. So his theme is pretty upbeat and silly but gets a bit more serious for a while partway in.

Nice one :). It is indeed kinda goofy and simple, which fits the guy (or girl?). I would love for this guy to suddenly wipe your entire team xD.  When reading your "gets a bit more serious for a while partway in", I started hoping there would slowly enter like an epic drum and overdramatic choir and such, but it's maybe for the better that you didn't and just stuck to making a solid theme. It's nice, simple, and goofy, fitting Gloo as a midboss! Especially the melody sound right at 0:00 is so funny for some reason. Well done :D

I really like how the UI has the enemy encounter music jam as the names for the party. Details like that are so fun!

The feel of your track corresponds to your original intention.

Nice job!

Very cool! Reminds me of early Pokemon game battles. Good mix of playfulness and foreboding.

I love the idea of making it only NES-esque sounds! I shouldve done that.

I dig it! Got a nice beat and fits well with the enemy

Love the killer synth tones! Also, totally agree with your description--love the journey the theme takes from upbeat and silly to a bit more serious

This song has so much personality, and I can definitely see it playing during a fight against a silly gloopy dragon!
