Description
genre: ambience (EDIT: maybe too late but the genre can also be webcore, internetcore, but im not sure if these are official genres)
kind of game: something like eartbound, but you are an astronaut who accidentaly arrive to an unknow planet, and casually, this planet is being attacked by other alien race, then, you must first save this planet to come back to home, to do this, you must fix the 3 main satellites of the planet , since each one is being cursed. the first moon, has a curse that forces all its inhabitants to dance, the second, that really isnt cursed, but it is being invaded by the other alien race ,the third, that's where the center of the invaders is, and the fourth,that has a curse that reduced everything to ruins,

(EDIT 2 maybe too late: i used LMMS )

Message from the artist:
so, i take inspiration from earthbound, also from undertale ,a little bit from celeste, and from a playlist that a friend of mine shared me, also she is the one who created the art of the cover and some more illustrations , https://www.instagram.com/dalachuuwu/

Theme

Panspermia (Πανσπερμία)

How does it fit the theme?
well, i think it fits because the instrumentation , i mean maybe you can relate it with a lot of things, but the space and aliens are one of that things

You set up some really interesting atmospheres with these tracks, although I'd like to be able to feel the beat a bit more, especially in the first track where there's a clear rhythm being played but it feels like its missing a heavy bass component

Developer

Thanks¡, maybe now that the jam is over I will reissue songs with some improvements,

"2nd Moon" is delightfully creepy ^_^.

That music fits what you're going for. Its also really good. "the place" was stand out to me for that combination of happy music and that eerie sound effect you used as a timbre, I see what you did there ;) , I'm totally the only person who did ;)

I enjoyed reading the concept you developed to fit the soundtrack. The cover art is nice as well! Regarding the soundtrack itself, it felt very groovy and the compositions were top notch. Very creative and cohesive. I could hear the influence of the Celeste soundtrack at some points. I felt the mix could use a bit of cleaning on the low-end, but other than that, congrats on your work!!

I did not draw the cover, it was a friend who drew it for me, I guess she will be happy to read your comment when I tell her (PD I leave a link to her instagram account, in case anyone wants to know about that). Regarding your  feedback, I really appreciate that you liked it, and I will take into account the criticism to improve what I do, thank you!

Great soundtrack! I remember your submission from the last OST Composing Jam :) In this soundtrack I like the happy-spooky tunes. The 3rd track reminds me of OMORI cosmic music. Good job!

P.S. Are you from Poland? Your submission is named in Polish language? I'm so curious xD 

Developer(+1)

Thanks I haven't played omori but I heard it's a great game so I think I'm honored by your answer haha, I'm also not from poland but I see why you think that, I didn't really realize that pan kosmos means something in Polish XD. the truth is that actually I only translated the word "universal" into the Greek language and from there I got the word "pankosmios" that later I turned into PanKosmo

Pan Kosmos means Mr.Space in polish 😆

Nice entry!!
I really liked the chords on the third track, very refreshing composition.

Submitted(+1)

The first is straight jams and the last chorus pad you got really sells the setting. I love your sense of harmony too, it combines with the pads really well to create a spacey feel.

Didn't read the description before I started to listen and I got heavy Earthbound vibes especially from the first track. Was nice to see that actually had been an inspiration!

Developer

These tracks are fantastic, and would fit well in a LOT of games. I wasn't expecting them to be THIS high quality. Really stellar work!

Developer
