Message from the artist
Imaginary game for this soundtrack is some sort of RPG game about crab name Barc adventure in Orte Metro fighting against Mirror man for some reason idk (i was drunk lol).
The challenge during making of this, is i have to make sure the melody i wrote is sounds good both forwards and backwards, when i wrote forwards i have to reverse it and hear backwards version of it then tweak to fit melodically and rhythmically both direction until i got something sound good.
And yes, all track bpm is also palindrome, 99, 121, 125.521, 141 respectively, I was tried to make track length also palindrome, but it's sometimes exported to another length and the audio file is cutoff awkwardly at the end, so I decide to not make it.
Difficulty
Make a piece that has the same musical notes both forwards and backwards but doesn’t have to be an identical recording.

This is some excellent composition! I love the chiptune style you went for, over all I feel like this is incredibly well executed. I do wish that these tracks were just a bit longer however, but I understand that there was a big time restriction on this one.
I want to fight some mirror men now.
My guy this was awesome, really liked every track as it went on, they all felt really unique
Really great idea to have the tempo also be a palindrome!
That little extra effort to fit with the theme adds a lot to the music for me!
I also like that the songs didn't overstay their welcome they were short and sweet so as to never get boring!
Great entry!
Simplistic but nice, really great submission.
the bassline 🔥🔥🔥🔥 LOVE your composition for all of them!!!!
Great!! Simplistic AND effective! No filler instruments for filler's sake! Just what is needed for the music. Very clearly made to fit in a game. Well done!

Above and beyond the requirement!!! Nice work, you should consider selling this as a album package for games developers. Every type of song a game would need and few to spare.
