Ah, thank you so much! The ending was a last minute addition. The main synth was the only one playing and it was just the same synth in the second breakdown in the original file. All I did was have it go through an amp and add bitcrush, and then add those drums. I would've probably made the ending a little longer, but I didn't want to take the time because it was already kind of late at night and I had to have this finished by the morning. I appreciate the comment, though!

Thanks for your comment on the melody. I consider it one of my best. :)

Thank you so much!

One of the song's inspirations was actually the feeling of getting a new game/game console. That's why it's called "Start Up." I'll take the comment "watching an amazing start to an adventure" as a compliment!

It's kind of funny, last year someone else commented that my Pixel Day song sounded like Sonic. I haven't even played Mania.

Thank you very much, though!

Thank you so much! I really appreciate it. I've been trying to get better at keeping songs interesting throughout and I'm glad to hear I did it here! Happy Pixel Day to you too. :)

Thank you so much! I really appreciate your compliment on the bass. I've been learning how to make better bass rhythms since I started actually playing the instrument, and I'm quite happy with how it turned out. I'm glad the key changes were okay, too!

Yeah, I'm not the biggest fan of fadeouts either, but I liked this one too much to not include it.

I really appreciate all your comments here. Thank you so much for the review! Happy Pixel Day, and good luck!
