Reviews for "Wishing Star"

I love this.

"it's a ... sloop" - For a small wooden ship, it gets the job done as far as floating goes. If it could sail into the wind, you'd have it spot on, maybe it can I dunno.

The melodic aspect of it, (btw I laughed at the key change, wasn't expecting it, nice timing) makes for a great friendly, kids and christmas feeling. Some of the sounds don't, particularly the drums giving it some different energy. I would friggen love to hear this with an orchestra, and plays at a slower tempo, it would make for a good movie theme. Tell you what, I'll make a movie* if you remake this using an orchestra. and use your voice for the harmonising and chords or whatever you want.

*Movie may be in the form of interpretive dance and go for under a minute.

lolz. I know, right? I had no idea "Sloop" was an actual word, and now I just feel ridiculous!

And I love your reviews, btw. They're thought out and make me giggle most of the time ^_^ Thanks for all your support. I love it!

Very nice. : )

I could easily see you working it into something less loopy and more all-out song with time, but as is it seems very versatile in that I can see it working for a flash movie, game, or just as background music while one works. Sledding, snowball, more sledding... naw, now I'm stuck on sledding. : | Think I'm gettin' tired.

Lovely as usual. : ) Though I'd love to see it expanded into something a tad less repetetive, as you said, it's a sloop.

VGSongbird responds:

Yeah, I wanna take it into an actual song.
This one was written for a "loop" purpose.

Sloop?

I wouldn't call this a sloop, or trance, for that matter. It's pretty calming, and I'd say it's closer to ambient than to trance (though it isn't quite ambient, either).

It reminds me of the area behind the Crystal Palace in Paper Mario; it gives the impression of everything there (a clear night sky, falling snow, and the aurora).

VGSongbird responds:

Lolz; I guess you're right. It really isn't a ship is it?

pretty sweet!

Not really trance though.
this sounds more like an options menu for a mario videogame or something.
and the drumbeat falls more under the chill/ drum&bass category.
Great work though nonetheless.

VGSongbird responds:

Ha. Yeah. This was back in the day when I was still getting my Newgrounds legs.
Thanks for your support.
I really can't tell you how much I respect the opinion of a Newgrounds Audio Portal legend such as yourself ^_^

Very good

You know what your doing, keep it up and make some more stuff like this

VGSongbird responds:

Well since this was so well received, I definitely intend to!
Thanks for your support!
