The overall production is really impressive. I especially like track 3, with lovely use of synths over the piano lines. Think about ways you could build transitions between sections, as some of the changes are quite stark. Great work :)

Description
Daw: FL studio
Game Name: Legacy of the Crystal
There are three tracks, a song for the overworld, that also serves as the game's main theme. I imagined the game's "inside my world" theme as a sort of mental battle being presented as a real one. So a world that represents one's thoughts. To me the sound represented in the song is incredibly vibrant, colorful, and apocalyptic. Representing a character's personality and internal conflict.
The second song I imagined as both a lead up to a final battle, and the battle itself. The tense intro gives this "point of no return" vibe. That point in JRPGs where you are warned you can't go back after this point. Emotionally, it represents a reflection on the journey, and on what is ahead, before hitting the final chaotic boss theme
The last song, Cathedral, is a sort of melancholic aftermath to the last song. It's sort of an imagination of the feelings the protagonist may feel after taking down their conflicts.
Theme
How does it fit the theme?
As stated earlier, I felt like "Inside my world" would be a unique perspective on a real game. A world, characters, history, lore, artstyle, and of course, musical score, that represented a single human being.
The girl dressed in pink was taken as the protagonist for the game, and the atmospheric look and combination of grass, flowers, fish, bubbles, flying, and all of that felt like a dream-like state that i imagined while writing and producing the music.
