Don't give up the day job

To be honest, this isn;t the sort of tune that you expect to hear while fighting a boss or even being introduced to one, even in an 8-bit gaming atmosphere.

It's a decent start, but after about 5-10 seconds, when it starts to go downhill, you need to reign it in and start conveying that the boss is big, is bad and is out to get you, rather than the fact that you're going to win. Themes for Bosses tend to be full of trepidation and fear, because these are the most stern of challenges that are going to be faced by a gamer in any given game.

Ouch

The tune isn't very earfriendly. But it's very 8-bit-like.

Sounds almost like some "Game Over" tune, at least from 0:05 to 0:09. Other than that: I can't imagine this being used in a flash movie or flash game. The loop isn't long enought to function as some kind of background music. It's also not varied enough to be used as background music.

And for a short interlude it's just not good enough, I'm afraid. It sounds more like randomly thrown together notes. No real structure present here.

Kind of useless.

I could see this being used in a video game flash or game, but only in a small section of the game because I don't think it would sound too good in a loop situation. Because of this the usefulness of the audio submission isn't very great. Perhaps making it a little longer and making it have a little bit of variety to it after you make it a tad longer. On top of that make it so it could be used in a looping situation and it could be used in a flash submission here on newgrounds.

Overall, make it into a better loop and make it so it so it could be better used in a flash submission.

Eh...I guess I could kinda see this being in a game, but if this were in a game it would get very annoying, and VERY fast. The tune that you were aiming for, just is boring, and that keyboard just gets on your nerves...

Ehhh...

This wasn't that good at all, quite unstructured and lacked any defined tune. Not overly bad though.

Kind regards -
