I love the sound you created here! I think you've got a very clean mix overall! Feels like a very fun world to be in!

This was such a fun and charming soundtrack! Welcome to my World was a perfect intro to this soundtrack and the other two tracks definitely play off it well. You should be really proud of the quality you've been able to produce in a mere 9 days. Great job!

Beautiful sound palette, atmosphere and energy! Nice arrange.
Lead synth in Pure Imagination is a bit harsh for such light track. Overall great submission!

Woaaaa , what a joyful album sounds alot like an MMO just like you describe, remind me a bit of Flyff. Nice chord progression, mix is nice everything seems real balance. Good use of tempo change, I don't see many play with it. Nicely done !

Welcome To My World - Thank you for the invitation) This track has an amazing atmosphere of carefree and positive! (When I listen to this track I imagine a big meadow with oak trees on a hill, heh...)

Pure Imagination - Heh... it really makes you imagine a lot (This track reminded me of Sonic Mania). Sharp progression from 1:37... sounds both interesting and very bold (ESPECIALLY BASS)

Tomorrow Never Knows - ...and such beautiful soundtracks must have a sad composition! After all, you need to touch on all the main human emotions: joy and sadness! (Spoiler: you managed to do it)

I liked your work... Good idea!

 I'm so sorry Babycastles(

Welcome to My World: The soft flowing vibe invites me in and makes me want to play this game! It has good forward momentum and I’m sure that if this was looped, I would have no trouble listening to this over and over again!

Pure Imagination: Those brass synths add a great light mood to the track’s experience. I also like the addition of the drum kit. This would be a great incentive to get the Pro+ version of the game! I really like the interesting chord change moving into the softer section. The final big section has vibes like some Super Smash Bros music which has me pumped up and ready to play more!

Tomorrow Never Knows: This guitar version of the theme is quite reflective and I think it conveys the “Inside my World” theme the best.

Overall: This is a short soundtrack but it could play over and over and I would still enjoy it the entire time! The electronic and chill ambience is very inviting to me and I would be very interested to hear more tracks from this game! Well done and thank you for sharing!

Wow, this was so refreshing! I'm getting pokemon diamond and pearl vibes from the way you utilized the synths and handled the sparkling melodies. I really enjoyed the way changed tempo and rhythm at various points of these tracks. I believe you knocked it out of the park when it comes to theme! Great job!

Nothing to say, everything fits PERFECTLY the theme you wrote up there and with superb quality. Would actually love to have heard this in a game!

This is a super charming little soundtrack! Your music is so fun to listen to, and it feels like you yourself had fun writing it, which is always an awesome thing to get from listening to someones music. My one note is think about your choice of instruments and how it contributes to the overall feel of your piece, obviously it isnt my work so we may just have different opinions but the Synth you use for Pure Imagination isn't necessarily something that I would pick for the same ideas, but I do completely understand if it fits your vision, this is more a subjective critique then anything else. Your choices all feel very purposeful so I imagine its something you like, and that I just dont really understand it, and thats okay!

Overall i still really enjoyed this and would absolutely play this game!! Well done <3

Pretty great tracks! Tomorrow Never Knows is my personal favorite one because I'm just like how it's so relaxing and calming it is.

I love the sound in 'Tomorrow Never Knows,' it's so relaxing, I loooove it!

Submitted(+1)

great stuff dude, loved the tempo switch in Pure Imagination and the main theme was a banger!

Submitted(+1)

Where can I sign up for the Babycastles Pro+ subscription? Seriously though, all 3 tracks are all charming in their own way. I liked how you transitioned in and out of the middle section of Pure Imagination. Welcome to my World is just such a good vibe. And Tomorrow Never Knows is a heartwarming sendoff with its mix of guitar, synth, and keys. Lovely soundtrack!

I second the Ragnarok Online vibes, it immediately came to my mind within the first few seconds. Turns out it was Maple Story, close enough! Honestly it's a really well made soundtrack, it filled me with the sense of adventure you feel at the start of an MMO. The tempo changes were really nice, it injected more humanized touch and created some nice contrast between the more electronic sections. Don't have any complaints, you nailed it!

Submitted(+1)

This is solid - immediately I felt as though Welcome to My World perfectly captured that feeling of starting up a new MMO. Those first few tracks always feel so special and have this unique charm to them. Interesting choice when it comes to modulating the tempo - unexpected shift but helps to draw attention without being overbearing. Resolves quite nicely, too!

Pure Imagination was a fun one to end on - is it weird to say it gave me some GBA-era Pokemon vibes? I can just imagine hearing that in one of the towns or the buildings (game-corner or even the centre). Great use of instrumentation and progression throughout. Good work!

WOW loved this one!! def one of my favorites so far, super pretty and fitting for an MMO vibe.  i especially liked your little tempo pushes and pulls, really helped the tracks feel alive. my favorite track is Tomorrow Never Knows ;') super beautiful and loved your sound choices... such a cool concept too.  amazing work and congrats!!

Developer

Yay thanks for the kind words :D
