yknow the second track had me scratching my head a little, but the rest makes for an absolutely vibrant OST. I love the synth textures and variety of sounds blended together and how nicely they came together!

Here's mine, will check out yours too
Beautiful Sea Dome - Surprisingly energetic from the get go. Really enjoyable. I love the arpeggios especially
I Didn't Sign up for this! - I love the edgier sound to this one ! The distorted percussion and synthy, dirty bass are really good and very energetic! I love the the lead melodies, they sound very "floaty" and fits the watery feel as someone else has said.
Fresh air - love the messy feel to this one <3 gorgeous
The One Who Swims in the Stars - Incredibly epic intro, and genuinely somewhat emotional and heartbreaking. The modern production mixed with SNES soundfonts works so well here. I also love the interpolation of the prelude of the Final Fantasy series
Meteor Shower - For a battle theme/chase theme/panicking scenario, it lacks impact in the mix. But the melodies are fantastic
Moonlight - The lack of impact in the percussion is style an issue, but the vocal samples are gorgeous <3
Endoblue - Right off the bat it's incredibly reminiscent of sound-fonts used in the ps1 - ps2 eras. You are one of the few artist's I've listened to for this jam that have managed to use "cheaper" sounds without it sounding amateur. It sounds more deliberate, or maybe you just know how to work with what you've got, but I admire it
Same Old House - works well enough as a simple house theme, but doesn't grab me. Could be catchier. It also does not fit within the rest of the soundtrack.
An Odd Town - The chord choices on this one are odd, not a big fan of how low they are. but I like it besides that. It sorta reminds me of snowden from undertale.
Twixt The Coral - Love this one. Incredibly catchy. The percussion could be louder and have a nicer impact, but other than that it's really good. Sounds like a dungeon theme in an RPG, and is very catchy !
Eclectic Enemy - always a sucker for the slapbass soundfonts used in old games, you nailed the sound of bossfights from old snes games like megaman X and SMT1 and 2.
Blackfin - Catchy, simple, but very fun. Sounds like a quirky, semi evil semi dumb villain.
Determination - The soundfont use throughout the whole ost is amazing, and it works well here too. Love the energetic sound
Overall Really enjoyed it! I do think the mixing could be better, as well as a mix of more modern production techniques. but the general sound is very solid and very retro
This is probably the most interesting soundtrack I've come across thus far. It's incredibly chilling.
The heavy use of percussion on "Fightflightorfreeze" is insanely memorable and my biggest highlight across the whole OST. I'd love to play a game that uses a unique style like this for it's battles or even as a chaotic dungeon theme.
The whole soundtrack manages to capture anxiety in a vivid way, and it's somewhat terrifying to listen to. That's very hard to pull off. Amazing work
I've heard a lot of soundtracks here that have tried hard to match the water and bubbly theme of the artwork assigned, but you've pulled it off by far the best. The texture is just gorgeous. The soundscapes are brilliant and mixing is perfect. I love the tactical percussion that is sparingly used in the first track, and the detailed layering of field recordings and foley sounds. very very good
