Explain your hypothetical game concept & how you interpreted the theme!
A potato protagonist goes on an epic quest... but he's actually kinda chill. (also he has a boombox playing banger music) A laid back, fun sort of a game.

What genre is your soundtrack?
chiptune

Anything else you'd like to add?
It started as a gothic hero' s journey sort of song, but I lost track and made it a lot more fun. Improvement in my opinion. Hero's can have fun too!

I love the concept. It's very cute! And the tunes really fit our fried friend's vibe.

heck yeah that's some funky potato-chip-tune.
Excellent work, catchy melody and great energy throughout :)

Oh this slaps 😆 Definitely a head-bopper. Really fun concept, really nice execution! I feel like the I could have used a little more of the epic part around 1:20, that really broke up some of the sameness of previous sections.

P.O.T.A.T.O.

It's fun, it's playful, and it's POTATO. Cool!

Give me some advice on how to make a normal chiptune, please :>

I use FamiStudio, which works just like the NES console with its limitations. You can create your own instruments and tweak the waveforms to get the exact sounds you’re after. It can be a bit tricky to find all the info on its features, so if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

This is incredible I would play the hell out of this

Thanks!

This is a fun little song. I can definitely imagine it playing in a game boy game about the titular potato hero! The arpeggio was a very appropriate choice for the song and I liked your chord choices as well.

If I could suggest one thing it would be to give each synth some sort of solo, as the arpeggio melody plays throughout the entire piece and might benefit from some scarcity.

That probably would have added to it. Thanks for the feedback!
