Description
~7 Minutes and 30 Seconds - Made in FL Studio
Forest Cave - You discover a beautiful cave surrounded by nature.
- I started with a peaceful bell sound and went from there
Deep Within - A mysterious portal transports you to another world within the cave.
- I created a mysterious pad sound with a chord of violins, and escalated the tension from there to represent going deeper within the cave.
Cave Monster - Life threatened, you take up arms against an otherworldly beast.
- I returned to the original motifs of the last track, but with much more intensity.
Relief - Nearly defeated, but victorious, you escape the cave to the peaceful forest from whence you came.
- I returned to some of the instruments from the first track and to represent leaving the cave, though this track is with less enthusiasm and more relief.
I think this soundtrack would fit an atmospheric platformer or RPG.
I am inspired by soundtracks like Chrono Trigger's.

Artist comment:
Thank you for listening.
Theme:
How does it fit the theme?
I interpreted the image as a cave. My soundtrack follows one's descent into cave, where they pass into an alternate world within said cave.

Woah this is sick. Deep Within is such a cool vibe and Cave Monster goes really hard tbh haha. Nailed it, well done.
Oh my god I love this sound design; Deep Within and Cave Monster could easily fit into the background of an ENA animation. Really dig those abrupt little chord changeups, creates a wonderfully ominous mood. The tempo increase in Deep Within was a SUPERB touch btw! Great transition to the boss theme... gah I have so many little compliments to give lol, just overall very well done game OST. Can't wait to hear more from you
Oh my gosh thank you so much! Glad you enjoyed the heck out of my little thing. To be compared with ENA anything is such a compliment!
Nice work! I like that the end of the Forest Cave track provides an appropriately obvious transition to the change between worlds. Feel like some other submissions didn't do that as clearly or at all. Think Relief is my favorite track, though; always love a good RPG-themed happy ending tune!
Heard this on Discord earlier and still very impressed with it, especially Cave Monster!
A fantastic variety of sounds and tones. I loved the calm of Forest Calm and the slow rising panic of Deep Within The Cave. Great work!
Thank you!!
Cave Disco Monster? Love that track. What a rave!
Overall great diversity of styles and emotions. The songbirds in the forest are the cherry on top!
Thank you so much!
Streaming link doesn't seem to work, but download works fine!
Fixed! Thank you.
