Theme

Inside my world

How does it fit the theme?
it doesn't really... I did a bad and didn't realise it was the given theme and assumed they were just examples. but you could interpret it as inside the world... war 1? inside the world of a carrier pigeon?

Delivery Flight is an incredible atmosphere of something medieval!

This sounds like an OST to a flying game! You came in strong with "Delivery Flight" and kept that momentum through every track until the end. Your composition was tight and your theme was felt with every track. Great job!

Oof That's unfortunate that you didn't realize the theme wasn't just an example.

Love the game Idea though and the songs were also quite good! I especially liked how the low strings sounded!

Day 4 Of Rating Submissions With Few Ratings to Hopefully Get Some In Return

Cute concept and I think solid execution, as well. The busy, angular yet fluid strings of the opener represent flight quite well. Generally, you have a very good representation of motion and flight in your score, dipping into modern and classical textures for it.

If I had one piece of criticism, there is a percussive sound in the second track that feels a.bit too clicky and/or potentially a bit loud. I can't say if this is better fixed with EQ or volume leveling though.

thanks for criticism! I do recall that I whacked the percussion up for that one to increase energy, but must have been too much, I appreciate the feedback.

Even though it doesn't fit the theme too well, the compositions were fantastic--delivery flight especially. Those strings rocked. Great work!

I'm impressed by your composition and mixing skills.

For some reason (maybe the instruments you chose) it reminded me a little of Unravel. Also, very unique concept.

Awesome Ethan!

This is great. The panning of the instrumentation is very nice and all the strings have nice clarity. I really like the piano, the reverb makes it feels very large. The percussion is energetic and fits well. Overall, this was very pleasant to listen to and I love the pigeon theme.
