Oh this one has a lot of variety. Deep Feelings is my best of the album it feels very original, it sounds well, the composition is well written, At 1 min of the track  I would've love more bass, like deep bass to make it explode a little bit more. at 30 secs of Title screen the vibe is so quirky too very different I like it. The Final Boss though, I think that all the ideas were somewhat there but it feels like its missing something, some punch to it, the mix is also lower than all the other tracks in terms of volume en dynamic i'm sure if you had more time you could do something insane with the track. Good job !

Developer

Thank you!  And I agree, more bass is always good

Oh no a Water Temple

Tracks feel nautical, the OST is driven by the game idea and that's perfect. We get calm sounds for the first part, and then Corporate Inc gets in with tension; great progression. Final Boss wraps things up, I like its melody. I don't know if that track was meant to be a boss fight track, as it feels more like an introduction to me, but it was great nonetheless. Good job!

There's always a water temple

Really nice little jingle at the beginning of the title theme!

I love it! And the melody of the first 30 seconds! So nostalgic and energic! The rest of the song is fun and make a good "waiting screen" well thought, well made ;)

Deep feelings has an interesting progression, and the motif from the title screen is nice touch :)

Water temple sent me back to childhood, there is a real vibe here. Then when the bass comes in, I felt like exploring this under water temple. Your skill at composing a vibe that conveys gameplay is a strenght!

Wave's theme starts with mystery, then the beautiful piano part told her story in a good way, standing apart from the rest of the ost as a character. 


Corporate Inc : nice dark theme for the bad guys. It evokes an anxieuse exploration to me, well done again. 

Battle Boss : Nice use of that "alarm" sound to give a sense of urgency !

That was a great ost man, I like that with simple instruments/elements you were able to produce entertaing and on spot tracks !

Developer

Thanks a lot for such detailed feedback!
