…I can explore distant worlds: Wow, I love the transition from jungle to desert to ice themes. The transitions were so seamless. And your choice of instrumentation works so well that it instantly tells me exactly where I am. This track reminds me a lot of the playfulness and theme variations of Click Clock Wood from Banjo Kazooie in the best possible way. Well done with the execution on this fun idea!

…I can become the hero: The fight sounds add so much character to this track and prove how it would be an effective fighting track in a game. The ending win theme is also a great touch! It definitely adds points to my own personal sixth rating category of “Game Readiness”.

…I can meet my true love: The choice of harp and strings for a love waltz is very fitting! The panpipe and harp counterpoint are very nicely done! I wasn’t expecting the drum kit, but it helped give it a more modern setting.

Until the bell rings: After hearing this one, I would be shocked to hear if Banjo Kazooie was not an influence for this OST. I immediately thought of Gruntilda’s lair with the tuba oompah style. This track puts a somber tone to the end of your soundtrack, which is perfect for your description - accurate and as billed!

Overall: It’s great to hear more of your music! With so many submissions, I decided that this time I wanted to start by searching for submissions from my most consistent jam friends! This is a great collection of tracks that cover many of the necessary motifs of a game and you presented them all in a unique way that added way more value than rote loops. I really like the personality you inserted into all the tracks and each stands out with its own merit. Great work and, as always, thank you for sharing!

Thank you as always for the detailed explanation! When I read the theme, I saw the opportunity to make a wild variety of songs, loosely related by all being 'fantasy- or game-aspects,' as I am very font of creating diverse tracks with varying settings. I have tried a lot of new things: stepping away from the usual "rote loops" and towards songs with a start and ending; adding sound effects and reverb; but also trying out MuseScore4 for once! My job gave me a great laptop that I am allowed to use partially for personal projects, which finally allows me to use new software like this. Of course, this was my first attempt at this, so it's not perfect, but I am glad with the initial result, and I am glad that you like it too :D

Surprisingly, I have never heard the Banjo Kazooie soundtrack (except maybe a single song in a random YouTube playlist). I get my inspiration from all over the place. But perhaps I should give it a listen sometime, as it may be quite well-matched with my music-style.

I am also only rating my close friends; I simply don't have the time to do more than that! I already went through all the names and made a list of the friends I found -- you're on top ;)
