I stylized this like a song that would play in the background of a video, you know, those copyright free songs? I wanted to make this one happy. Then I used a couple stuff to kinda make it like something I would want to hear in Geometry Dash, hence the name 25%.

All this time I had been working on a different song, clocking 18 hours in that one alone. But it ended up with me scrapping it. Not too proud of that. But I did make this, and I think this one is my favorite one that I've composed so far.

What I learned:

1. How to add Fruity Dance to ZVideoGameEditor

2. OTT

3. Practiced making pianos play more realistically (playable wise, not mechanics like pedals or sustain)

4. Learned small part of mixing. Apparently you're not supposed to let the master track turn orange.

5. Tried out a suspended chord

6. Cutting out unused frequencies with Fruity Parametric EQ 2

7. Learned how to swing tempo!

Time spent: 6 hr, 54 min

What did I use?

I used:

• Magical 8 Bit Plugin's 25% (hence the name) and 50% square waves with a bit of attack
• A bunch of plucks from FL Studio FLEX packs (they're all free)
• Vital for making a pad, and a "whistle" sound
• Acoustic Piano from FLEX, added OTT
• FLEX for a ton of things
• T-Bird Slap bass from FLEX Essential Basses
