I love how your compositions are like love letters to 'Claire De Lune' and 'Moonlight Sonata'
They've very fitting to the themes you chose and add to the dreamy feel of it all. Wonderful work, these were very lovely to listen to! 💖
Really great job! I really liked Wish Keepaway, the energy and chord progressions were lovely.
One Wish: I think your musical reference to Claire de Lune is very fitting for the picture theme. I think your composition fits the style of the original Paper Mario’s soft and hopeful music. Listening to this track makes me feel at peace, but also feel a little bittersweet at the same time like the adventure had some loss with it at some point.
Wish Keepaway: This track has a fun energy that feels you’re on a pirate ship which I think ties into the picture theme well. Your chord progressions have a classical sound to them and are well-crafted, making me think you have had some formal training in composition and/or music theory. Overall I wish I could have heard more of the rest of this game’s soundtrack, but I certainly enjoyed what you submitted. Thank you for sharing!
The retro is strong with this one!
One Wish: really cute melody, great job creating a dreamy atmosphere with such simple sounds.
Wish Keepaway: I love the harmonies here. reminds me of Beethoven's moonlight sonata. I really like the combo of retro sounds and classical music.
Nice entry, thanks for sharing!
Chiptune classical goes brrrrr
I liked your adaptation of these classic works, definitely makes the fit for a video game. Nice job!
Was that some Moonlight Sonata I heard...? 🤔
Anyway, fun listen! I'd play if it were a game (but maybe that's just because you said it's a Paper Mario-style RPG 😂)
Haha chiptune Clair de lune ! Fits the theme for sure. I don't know how it works with the rules of this jam but the idea is on point with the theme.
Then that Bach like track.. Same, I don't know how you did this, it is superfun and works well as an antagonist theme but is it fair to say it was composed?
Anyway, I don't know how to rate this because honestly while I like your idea I don't know if it is relevant here.. :/
Still, know that I enjoyed listening to it!
