Thank you so much!

Fun track with a piraty vibes, it doesn't fit so much as a boss track, but you nailed some aspects of the OST to make it fit on this jam. It would have been nice having some more rhythmyc elements and more energy, with some variety too.

Thank you! I loved the OST so much while playing the game that I was happy to have a chance like this!

Wow, thank you so much! This time I worked on the structure before anything else, trying to give every instrument I used its space and role, I'm glad it worked out fine.

Thank you, I appreciate your feedback!

Thank you! I tried to implement all of my favorite parts of the OST, not only the ones from the Coral Riff track, glad you liked it!

Thank you for your feedback! I actually started using real vocals, then with some hard cuts, pitch modifications and fx I tried to get close to the vocals used on the original OST, so the artificial sound is what I wanted from the beginning.

Thank you, I always thought the vocals were the funniest part of the ost!

Thank you!

Thank you! Listening to the shopkeeper adding his vocals the first time I played the game is my favorite moment.

Very cool track, nice vocals and sfx here and there, maybe not enough energy for a boss track of that game, but drums are so nice and the mixing is so good! It was a pleasure to listen to it.

Nice direction with distorted guitars, and heavy drums and synths. I feel it lacks a punchy kick or beat to help the players to stay on time, but you nailed the boss vibes and made your own version of the OST.

Nice mood, intimidating like a battle track should be. It lacks some energy tho, especially in the development, where having more variety and brightness would have helped a lot. Like another comment said, the chaos of your tracks is a bit too distant from the original soundtrack, and the lack of some melodic phrases or themes makes it hard to follow your ideas.

The NES sound choice is interesting, maybe for a demake of the game? But it would have worked more if you incorporated some elements of the original soundtrack, and a better mix because some sounds like the main synth is very loud.

I listened to this as soon as you uploaded it on SoundCloud, I think it's a very nice composition, with a sound that could easily work on the original game. I liked the switch you made on the second part, even if personally it would have been very nice to expand the first section a little more, both parts were very well executed.

You created a nice mood, maybe it lacks some energy to be a boss track, and some elements of the original ost, but it is a good track. It gives me some Sea of stars vibes, good sound choice.

Nice blue track, I don't think it sounds like a boss track, you used some elements of the original OST but it lacks some groove and energy. It was a pleasure to listen to this, even if distant from the assignment.

I still have to listen to all the tracks of this jam, but this is one of the best no doubt! The bass slaps very hard, the synth you used on the melody is so on point, the only thing I have to say I didn't like much is the absence of the brass, that could have taken the part of the synth/pad, but this track is so good, well done!

The bass riff is very good, but I think it lacks some of the other main components of the original: a good loud kick, synths and more rhytmic parts. But your limitations are a good choice, and you made something original that sounds very nice.

Bass and drums are so good! The keyboard is a bit too loud and not doesn't "go" anywhere, so the whole middle section feels a bit empty and repetitive, but when the sax enters it totally changes the mood, very good!

Cool idea to switch genre in the end, but it doesn't sound very boss battle to me, and while the first part is similar to the original ost, I think it lacks some ideas and feels a bit empty.

Nice pirate vibes, good ideas with sounds and use of the synths, this is a cool track, maybe it lacks the punchy kick to stay on the beat, but it's a very good track with many original ideas!

Very good track! You nailed the theme of this jam, and you do your own interpretation of the key elements of the original OST, maybe it lacks some punchiness on some elements, but everything works nicely.

Nice chiptune track, but it lacks the groove and the kick to let the players stay on the beat! With more rhythmic parts and the right drums it would have been much closer to the original ost, but it was a cool track, even if it lacks the battle aspect of the original.

Good job, it fits this jam and it was a pleasure to listen to your track. I loved the water sfx and the brass. One thing it lacks is the punchiness and groove of the original, with the right synths and drums it would have been closer to the original sounds.

Lots of Uematsu vibes here! I think this track doesn't resemble the original soundtrack, but it's a good piece. The mix is a bit confusing in some parts, but it's a very nice boss battle track, even if it doesn't belong much to the game of this jam.

Nice groove and good ideas and analysis, but I think it lacks some punchiness, like some synth or brass to cut the mix and give more "strength" to your track, like the original does. But everything feels balanced and sounds good, and the groove of your drums and bass is very well crafted.

Nice take as an alternative track, it captures the undeground mood even if it lacks some of the goofy/funny aspect of the original. Good job!

Your description depicts perfectly the story told by your track, and even if that means not fitting perfectly this jam, it was a pleasure to listen to your music. Good job!

Your melodic ideas are a good take, but it would have been great to have some rhytmic part to bind everything together! Following the direction you wanted to give to your track is a bit hard, mostly after the intro.

Nice take as an alternative track I think it works pretty well, even if sometimes it's a bit ripetitive like the original does. Nice idea to document your process. Good job!

Nice alternative take on the original theme, the track feels a bit too empty and repetitive, it could benefit from a B melody like the original does, but I think you nailed the underground aspect of this jam. 

Nice and very original take, the atmosphere you create is dreamy and suspended. Nice use of sfx too, good job!

Very fun and goofy piece, with a mysterious character fits perfectly the theme of this jam. Good job!

Spooky and fun track, the way you used the synths is pretty unique in this jam, the change of theme and mood was a bit strong, but it was a good listen. Good job

It reminds me of something from a Donkey Kong game, I think it's a nice track even if a bit distant from the theme of this jam. The atmosphere you created is very evocative, with more variations and some care on the mix it could fit very well in a jungle area of some adventure or platform game.

Cool atmosphere, I think you nailed the theme, and with the right sound choice it sounds like a very good alternative take! Good job!

Simple with nice reminders of the original game, even if the track sometimes feels a bit too empty or ripetitive. The choice of going with the original sounds is very good, and it gives the right impression as an alternative track. Well done!

Fun track with its own sound choices, sometimes unexpected but well executed like the guitar, maybe it doesn't fit perfectly the theme, but it was a good listen, well done!

Very cool vibes, perfect for the theme, this is one of the best in the jam!
