Wow, your music fits perfectly for a Game Jam game, I'm doing. The game jam has prize money, but I don't think I'll win. But if I do, I'm gonna toss you a coin ;)
Sorry I'm so late to see this, but that's awesome :D I'm glad if it happens to fit well with whatever you're creating! I'd love to see the end result whenever it's finished if you don't mind sending a link to the project :3
If the jam is still ongoing and you're still working away on your entry, then good luck & I hope you're having fun with it! And if the jam is already finished, I hope ya had a blast taking part :D
Also, that's super sweet of you about prize money :3 I've entered a few jams with cash prizes in the past too, but I'm always convinced I will never win in a million years, haha. But it's fine cos I join jams for the fun of it anyhow. I'm a bit too obsessed with joining jams tbh x3 it keeps stopping me from making progress on my longer projects!
Chilling in the best worst way possible. It's been a long time since any song made me feel so seen, and you threw it together in your spare time. I hope it's alright if I add this to my playlist (with credit of course) for when I stream. Even if not... Just... Damn. 10/10
I’m so glad to hear it resonated with you! Thanks so much for checking it out and taking the time to leave such a nice comment :3
It’s more than fine if you want to add it to your streaming playlist :D I’m honoured that you think it’s worth using/listening to! And the credit is much appreciated :3
With any luck, I’ll be able to get it on Spotify sometime this year, but I feel like the vocal part needs tweaking a little first, haha.
Hey, love the song! It felt very cinematic, and the vibe reminded me a bit of Terra Battle's main theme, which is a total and absolute compliment! And yes, it's ambiented in an apocalyptic world lol So I totally see this working in the settings you described above.
I think you worked on the layers pretty darn well, and managed to keep it entertaining. The vocals add sooo much to it, if you ask me, they are the main dish of the soundtrack. It's what gives it the extra punch and moves up front during an scene! While then it can go back to wait in the background, acompanying the game.
Hehe x3 I’ve actually been going to bed early this past week… to get up at 6am and count moths xD It’s National Moth Week, woooo :D Hope you have been having yourself some restful times!!
Thanks so much for checking it out :3 I had to go look up Terra Battle ofc x3 If it’s the right one that I found, seems like a shame it stopped service! Especially if it’s the one with a Nobuo Uematsu soundtrack >.< The FFX OST is still one that I come back to listen to time and time again. Even if it was only a bit, I’m glad if it could give similar vibes, and even more glad that you think it could work in that kind of setting as described :D
It means a hell of a lot that you think that about the vocals! I started out feeling like a total moron for releasing the vocal version of the track cos I was so embarrassed xD but the jam community has been so kind and supportive that even though I still feel it’s sorta cringy, I don’t feel total shame over it anymore, haha.
Now my only regret is discovering the jam so late cos I would absolutely have spent hours upon hours on making something else if I had the time xD There’s always next time though!
Thanks as always for appearing from the ether and shining some light on my day :3 Listening to all the epic music others have made for the jam has brightened my mood in general, but I’m still a very grumpy bunny at not having a PC right now, haha.
Hope things have been going decently for you! Congrats on the Second Impact demo btw! It looks bloody amazing!! Hope all goes smoothly with development :3
National Moth Week? Now, that's a new one, never heard of it! I'm more concerned about them ruining my flour... xD
And yes, I mean *that* Terra Battle. It had Sakaguchi behind it (The guy from FF 1 to 9 xD), and it was bloody amazing. The song I meant was the main theme, that one that goes "The heart to believe... keeps me aliveeee" Or something like that lol. Also, I'm asuming you mean To Zanarkand, one of the best songs the inhabitants of this planet have ever produced? Then glad you listen to it often! lol
I saw this one late too, and had to bail from trying because i'm taking a break to reach spooktober as fresh as I can lol And after releasing the game you just mentioned (Glad you think it looks dope!!) I'm really needing it lol
As allways, a placer trading comments with you! Hope your moth count doesn't get too high xD
It’s called that, but apparently, it takes place worldwide, haha. I’m a big lover of moths & butterflies, so I do moth trapping as a hobby x3 Got a lil light trap to lure em in, then I can record them to help with citizen’s science stuff & surveys for conservation purposes, and ofc, admire their floofy cuteness :D Keep em safe in the day, then release em at dusk.
Ahh, right, noice! I feel like I probably missed out >.< then again, I’ve missed out on a lot of good stuff the past 5 years or so T_T
Tbh, I still adore almost the entirety of the FFX OST, but To Zanarkand is particularly special… totally doesn’t make me tear up “>.>
FFX was one of the first games to make me cry in general, haha, but I think the soundtrack contributed a lot to that x3 I also still randomly sing The Hymn Of The Fayth to myself sometimes when the house is empty xD
That’s a shame about the OST comp jam but makes total sense! And is a far more sensible decision than I often end up making x3
I still don’t know what to do about Spooktober >.< I thought I might skip it entirely this year cos I wanted to try and finish LOVESTARVED in time for the end of Monstrous Desires Jam around the end of October, but not having a PC for the foreseeable future has kinda killed that hope already, haha.
Part of me wants to ask if anyone will have me on their spooky team to make some music :3 Cos I still would love the challenge of making an OST for someone else’s project rather than my own! (and also... just any excuse to make more music really x3)
I just know I don’t wanna lead any more Spooktober projects whether I have a working PC or not, haha. It’s too much x3
I hope you do manage to have yourself a proper break so you can storm into Spooktober though :D
Right back at ya! :3 But nooooo, I want AAAAALL the moths :P Come to me, my beauties!! I had 1 very pretty Jersey Tiger moth come sit on my shoulder while I did the count the other morning, and it was so cute :D
This lil cutie showed up too, which is one I’d never seen before, so I got excited like the nerd I am x3 You cannot deny its fuzzy adorableness!!!
Awwww come on, moths were you live are lovely! The ones I get are all brown, and love to ruin my food lol I rarely see the pretty ones with designs in their wings and all that :P
FFX is one of my favorites, out of FF and out of all JRPGs in general. It made me tear up too, but in some joyfull way! Specially since the version I had was the one that shows you an extra scene that really helps you cope with the ending, that I'll avoid naming in case someone ever reads this xD
Didn't play the second one because with that, to me, it was closed. In total perfection, the rest was up to imagination :P
I saw LOVESTARVED and I was tempted to play as the premise seems super interesting and it just looks awesome xD but then Otome isn't really my genre lol, still it looks freakin' awesome, and if that is what your heart tells you to do, you really should!
If you end up trying to just join a team, and are willing to collaborate with me on making music for the project I have in mind, I'd be honored to have you join! I'll probably need some help, as I allways end up loosing time throwing water out of the boat and never get to finish the OST in time during the past two spooktobers. Besides, you do know how to do techno and all that. I just uhm... give me my string quartet and guitars pls xD So if you end up down that road and feel like it, don't hesitate on hitting me up on discord!
Also, again, THAT'S ONE CUTE MOTH, I now understand your hobby xD
xD I would say that where I live (the UK) we have some of the most boring moths of any geographical location, haha. Sure, we do have plenty of stunners too! But a lot of them are just small and brown >.< I am forever jealous of places with moths the size of your palm x3
We do have tiny ones in the house that apparently eat organic matter, but we’ve never actually noticed them on our food, haha. They just seem to chill and not do a great deal xD
Ahh, nice :D I can’t actually remember which version I had first besides it being on PS2 because I did also go and replay it when it got re-released years later on with the HD remaster on the Switch, haha. I did play FFX-2 though because the appeal of the dressphere system was too much to resist x3 and it was a lot of fun! It was definitely a much more casual, goofy sorta game, but I loved it nonetheless :3
I’m glad you thought LOVESTARVED looked funky :D LPB and I were very much on the same wavelength when it came to the art & music, so I feel like we managed to achieve the sort of visual and audio aesthetics we had in mind for the world :3
We will be making a non-otome version at some point with the ability to choose both the protagonist & the love interest’s genders, but our priority is the full otome version before adding more options, haha.
We’re almost definitely screwed for even finishing it this year though cos I won’t be getting a PC until around the end of August, and there’s no guarantee it’ll work when it arrives since the others have been buggered >.<
I would absolutely love the opportunity to collaborate with you on music stuff for spooktober :D That’d be bloomin' awesome, haha. I have a bad feeling I would likely end up being more of a hindrance than of help though >.< Like if you needed something done in a certain way, there’s a 99.9% chance I would have no idea how to achieve it T_T
Like when we were supposed to have an audio engineer on our spooktober team last year and she asked me what standard we were working to for audio… I had literally no idea what she was talking about >.< It’s not something I’d ever been asked before by voice actors, and since I’d just been pootling along making music by myself, it had never occurred to me to have a system in place to make sure all project audio was somehow equal in volume because that in itself seemed impossible, and something I could semi-fix by adjusting volume levels of different things in the actual game code, haha.
Anything remotely technical, and I’m clueless >.< The last thing I’d want to do is make things harder for you! Or worse, potentially mess up your project :( If a leader’s instructions are just, make a track for a scene where X happens, or represent X emotion etc. I can do that, haha. Or just give me concept art and a vague outline of an idea, and I should be able to come up with tracks to suit stuff. But if a specific genre is required that I’m not familiar with, or a request is quite specific in general, I’m not overly confident I’d be able to make something the team would be content with.
I just don’t wanna ruin anyone’s projects, haha. I guess see how I feel and stuff closer to the time! Although, with team building beginning soon, that doesn’t leave all that long >.< I’m definitely burnt out again at the moment because I’m an idiot and didn’t take a break sooner x3 I hope that your break is a sufficient one to feel ready for spooktober :3
Hehe :D Tbh, they are all cute to me x3 but that one is pretty special in the cute department! It’s like a lil Pokemon or something!!
Thank you so much ^-^ I was really anxious about releasing the version with the vocals in, so this makes me feel less embarrassed by it x3
Unrelated, but I’ve had Roses and Thorns on my backlog of stuff I want to play!! It looks so cool :3 I just never allow myself enough time to play stuff, so my backlog has become huge >.< I also hope to manage to play most of the games from this year’s O2A2 jam, and I saw you submitted to that too :D
Ahhh, now I have many warm fuzzies x3 I’m so glad you liked them! My stupid brain sucks at taking compliments, but I really appreciate your kind words :3
I kinda have weird mixed feelings about my Yandere Heaven fandub project cos according to the analytics on itch, it seems to be my most downloaded/viewed project… On one hand, that’s great! I’m thankful that people are checking it out :D On the other hand, it makes me a tiny bit sad that people are more interested in that than my original projects with original stories/characters xD
Yo tell me about it xD I made a SUPER cringy Haikyuu fan game when I was like thirteen and it had more downloads than all my other games combined. Stresses of being a game developer 🥲
xD Oh no >.< I guess the main thing to ask ourselves at the end of the day is, did we have fun making it? And if the answer is yes, nothing else should really matter all that much, haha. I know it still does x3 but it shouldn't take away any of the joy of creating the thing :3
But yeah, the stresses and woes of game dev are endless x3 It's a good job the fun outweighs all of that :D I always tell myself, the day I stop enjoying making games is the day I should quit, but never before then!

ngl I LOVE IT it will work very good with a dark fantasy novel playlist! i'll listen to it while reading them!! your voice and talent are amazing <3
That’s so kind of you to take the time to leave such a nice comment! :3 Thank you so much, and I’m really glad you like the track ^-^
