- Ooh, that *wet* guitar in the "Menu Theme" is so delightful! And those vocals blend so well with everything - I love the alternating panning part too.
- Really interesting (/g) choice to have the old-style beepy synth as the lead instrument in the "Real World Theme", it works so well! Oh and the distortion at the end that goes into the cutscene! So cool!
- "Cutscene 1 [Trouble In Her World]" - the little bits of harmony in this work so well.
- "City Square" is appropriately simple - I enjoyed the noise in the background that I imagine might be continuous rain (representing the grief)?
- "Trying To Do Homework" is again predominantly synthy, so I again have to rave about what a cool idea that is for characterising your real world sections! The warbly/echo-y/reverb-y bits really suggest brain fog very well.
- "'Battle' Theme" is *so* legit for something that only exists for a joke, I really respect it (and it feels very Undertale, incidentally)
- I love the interplay in "Safe Area" of the faster harp arpeggios with the slower synth ones. And the idea of the chaos leaking in is rad!
- "Eugene's Theme" feels appropriately intimidating but also a bit silly, as I imagine is intended.
- "Cutscene 2" really hammers in on the sillier side with the vocals, and that absolutely delightful "bop" sound effect.
- "Trying to Mow the Lawn" goes so hard for mowing the lawn.
- The drop in "The Unfortune's Theme" is so good, and set up so well by the uncomfortable choral arpeggios before it. I do wonder whether it might benefit from one more slightly-cut-down section in the middle of the loop though?
- The "Menu Theme (In-Game Mix)" still works great without the vocals.
This whole thing is so cool! And frankly an enormously impressive amount of output for the time of the jam, especially when all of it is actually good lol
