The opening is very enchanting. Like one is stepping into a peaceful and calm world.

I like the spacey atmosphere at the beginning and the cute synth riffs. The bass at :23 is a little heavy, and I think the texture is missing some more legato elements (pads would be nice), but the melodies at :58 are really cute. I really like the somewhat melancholic feel of the piece at around 1:27 and the emotional quality of the synths there. At around the 2-minute mark, the harmonies trip over each other a bit, likely because of the delay effects. I think the part at 1:27 is rather minimalistic for such an extended section of the piece, and then the transition at 2:33 is a bit sudden. I think a lot of the last ⅔ or so of the piece is really languid and mellow, and might need a climactic section to give the piece a stronger sense of resolve. I really like the atmosphere and sound design here, and I think the mix is mostly well-balanced and clean, but the composition left a bit more to be desired here, especially in terms of harmonic depth and flow. Either way, I’d encourage you to keep working on this piece. It has a really nice emotional appeal in that it feels both cutesy and sad at the same time. Keep at it, Zechnition! :)

Very wispy in the beginning. I think the bass could have had a little better introduction. Very soothing though. I can see it trying to go somewhere a little different bu it doesn't get all the way there for me, personally. Still very pretty. Some percussion could go a long way in this song.

I'm getting Legend of Zelda OOT Ice level vibes mixed with Stardew Valley vibes, and I really like what I'm feeling with this
