A short 8bit song for you listening pleasure. Never made anything 8bit style so this was a bit of a test, but it was fun nonetheless.
Not too serious, but I think it's ok.

Okay.

This is some nice work. However, I felt like you were afraid to stray from the main melody, and it didn't sound quite 8-bit...maybe more 16-bit. The samples were a bit too high quality. This is a good start, though. I'd love to see you build on this.

7 = "Nice work. Could be improved."
Rated 4. 4.28 / 5.00 (- 0.0022)

Looking foward to seeing more.

Catchy!

It's got a nice beet and sound. My only two concerns are these:

If you want it to be truly 8-bit, some of the drum samples are a little too high quality for it. But that's a minor detail.

Secondly, the drum beat sounds a bit too loud, but that's really just a personal preference on my part, so you can ignore this sentence if you want to.

Other than that, it's a catchy piece.

If Only

Nuberu Uematsu was a king of the 8-bit. But I don't think he could whip up a kicking beat like this. Just picture this to ANY Nintendo or Master System game, and yeah, they all got nothing. Congratulations on this accomplishment and thanks for sharing it.

Yea YEA!!

Duude!! AWESOME :D It's so groovie and oldshool!! Great work :3
