Description
This is an orchestral soundtrack with an added 8-bit melody and synth created with FL Studio. It is meant to be an action platformer where an approaching storm forces you and others to flee their homes to find a safe place to weather the calamity, with the goal of both exploring to find the end and going as fast as possible. It started with chords from the violin with the rest of the track building off of it.
Theme:
How does it fit the theme?
Each song is made to fit the theme in different ways. The first track, "Last Call for Departure" is made to be energetic and epic to orchestrate the fact the player is running away at the last minute before the storm takes them. The second track, "Safe", follows the picture, with the serene and calm atmosphere the green forest shows to me.

great contrast between the hasty theme and Safe at the end. Very immersive and enjoyable. thanks for sharing!
Surprising, first track started already pretty epic I was expecting something completely different than you dropped the retro vibe, a surprise to be sure but a pleasant one. Second track also gives a complete different vibe exactly like you described, watch out when you drop the diminish chord, its a good idea but you can change the voicing to its spaced better and not stacked in a full cluster chord. Other than that good job !
Really like the composition here! The first track is energetic and driving, fitting the Runaway theme. The chiptune and violin blend very nicely.
Interesting blending of orchestral instruments with 8-bit sounds. Nice entry!
Great sound, I particularly liked the restrained grace of 'Safe', which made me feel exactly that. Impressive tracks.
The chiptune synth surely was the star of this show, good songs!
Loved the lead chiptune synth in the first track! Great job!
