What a fast and frantic song! I think it fits your narrative very well and definitely gives the sense of being chased/followed. I like the repetitive dancing around the minor third interval. The spookiness factor is increased by your use of chromatic mediant harmonic movement; moving from one minor chord to another minor chord a minor third away is an excellent way to set an uneasy atmosphere in your music. And I think it’s cool that your entire song is based on this interchange. If this is your first time making music, then you definitely have an ear for what musical progression and motion should sound like in order to enhance the emotion of the story. Overall great work and thank you for sharing!

Thank you so much! Hehe, I really wanted to mimic steps, you know something crawling on us, with the jumpscare at the end, and the finale where you get caught. So I'm glad you think it fits well !
I am by no means an expert in music theory, so I'll have to look up almost every term like "chromatic mediant harmonic"! But I'm looking forward to it.
This really is my first time. I used Bosca Ceol because this is like, the only software I know of... But it really got me interested in making more music, even for my games.
Thank you again for your post. I really enjoyed yours, the xylophone is integrated well and the kind of UFO SFX is gorgeous! (Sorry I can't describe it as good as you did for mine...)
