Ayo, the action sections are straight up out of Cyberpunk 2077 haha!
Cool concept! This would be a game I would definitely play.
You've achieved what the concept asks for, a dense and tense sonority. Also very interesting is the dark and futuristic sound that you created.
Although Trapped and Hunted is my personal favorite, in Breaking The Illusion there are moments that I really enjoyed (1:00)
Great work!!!!
"Trapped and Hunted" went hard !!
Good job :D
Trapped and hunted was my favorite. This isn't usually my style of music but I had fun with these and they are very well made!
this sounds actually epic, I love the instrumentation, reminds me of beepbox!
Took my a second to warm up to it but i really do like this one, once you get going in the more intense songs it reminds me of the ultrakill soundtrack, cool simple melodies to follow along with paired with frantic and fun rhythms, nice job!
Trapped & hunted is 1000% on point thematically, super good submission all over!
Love the 8-bit vibes and the atmosphere of something dark and gloomy that you've done.
My favorite is Trapped And Hunted and Breaking The Illusion (god, the drums are gorgeous on this one).
Is this your first OST jam? Awesome! I loved your work!
P.S. I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream? I love that story by Ellison.
I like the sinister, yet energetic vibe on Trapped and Haunted and on Breaking the Illusion, they're very well put together tracks! A solid submission all around, well done! :)
Fun soundtrack ^^ Break the illusion got me Matrix vibe !
There are some absolute fire tracks in this ost! Good job!
It reminds me Dungeon synths. I really like the style of those tracks.
Love the dark techno vibes of this! Trapped and Hunted and Breaking the Illusion are both standouts, and I like the use of the theme from Trapped and Hunted as your intermission transition with the simpler synths. Would love to see some other musical themes worked in to the journey, cause you have nailed the style and soundscapes and I'd be interested to see how you would meld themes together! Overall I think you connect to the theme really well with a super cohesive vision. Thanks for sharing!
this ost felt super cohesive! i loved Trapped and Hunted, it really fit the horror theme and i really liked your concept overall. awesome work!
Hey Bonsix! You definitely nailed a thriller/horror vibe for your OST. The tracks are very cohesive and is dark which goes along with your concept. My favorite song here is Viral Reality. It felt like a nice introduction to the track and the game concept. Your stage music definitely pushes the feeling of being chased. I think if the sections within those songs were more different, it would contrast well and keep me hooked.
Spooky work and love the concept!
