OverKill- Kinda creepy! Land of Overjoy - Love those piano arpeggios. Great atmosphere. Very Debussy-esque. Fairy forest vibe. Thanks for sharing!

Developer

I found 'OverKill' to be pretty intense and I found it a bit hard to stick with. 'The Land of OverJoy' on the other hand was more laidback and was quite pretty.   Good effort overall!

Developer

I appreciate the comment!

The dissonance in OverKill around is very overwhelming. I understand that you're going for a panicky type of vibe, but take your dissonance in moderate doses haha. The Land OverJoy has very interesting arps. It sounds very romantic (as in classical). 

Developer

of course - I suppose the dissonance might be classified as 'overkill' ^.^ I thank you for your comment!

The Land Of OverJoy:  I don't play much piano, but if that is playable it sure has to be fun, very dreamy vibes :D

OverKill: I loved this one, you captured very well the marching of the soldiers and also the dissonance makes it very nightmarish. (I don't know why but it reminded a bit of the Magia Record OST or the witches' themes from Madoka Magica)

I would have liked a longer version of OverKill but overall good job with everything!

Thank you kindly! The playability of 'The Land Of OverJoy' is a wonder of mine as well - Otherwise for OverKill, I'll have to give a listen, then :)
