Fish. Cool fish. A variety of fish. Creative fish. Stylish fish. Ambient fish. Well-made fish. Fish that I liked. The fish that I want to thank. Fish. Fish. Fish. Fish. Fish...

Wasn't supposed to end like this was my favorite of the OST because it felt like it had the most development. New sections and more interesting changes that I think the other tracks were lacking a bit in.

Thanks for commenting, again sorry for the late reply

(Funny because I spent less time on the last track)

I really enjoyed your drums throughout the project! “Wasn’t Supposed To End Like This” was the standout track for me!

My favorite parts were the drums kicking in. Don't know if I would consider it ambient, but the rule of cool overrides that.

I think you did a good job representing waves/tides with the lfo'd synths. I think you could go even further with the other tracks in this aspect (like having some plucky arps with "Pesky Fish", etc.)

Nice job!

I really liked the different ways you used to represent water in the tracks.

If I could give you some advice, it would be to make the long notes have a little more movement in terms of volume for example (Pesky Little Fish)

Great job!

Thanks for listening to the track and giving your feedback, I'll keep that in mind next time

Very ambient and spacey, nice! The instrumentation really hits the watery vibes but composition-wise it reeeally needs a bit more development, either by introducing new elements or new phrases or giving some variation to existing ones. But overall these are solid entries!

Developer(+1)

Thanks for the feedback, I'll consider those things on my next few songs

Hey Skitto, really cool and experimental ideas you have going on! "Sea Of Sadness" was prob my fav listening through, although "Wasn't Supposed to End Like This" was cooking towards the end lol. It's a little too repetitive overall, but that would be my only critique. Otherwise, great job!

Thanks, I didn't have my keyboard for the first few days of the jam, so I had to place the notes in as midi instead of recording for the first few songs, I get way less creative when using midi instead of recording. That's why It "Wasn't Supposed To End Like This" was less repetitive. Thanks for the feedback, I will try to work on that on my next few songs

really liked the spacious vibe here, creative sound choice and enjoyed the beats.  good job!

Developer

Thanks for listening and commenting, hoped you like it

Some really creative soundscapes in here. Would definitely have a bit of a melancholic yet open feeling playing this game :) Pesky Little Fish in particular really does sound like fish singing :O

Thanks for commenting

(I heard that sound in my library a long time ago and didn't know what song to put it in, then I realized it would sound great as a fish for this song)
