Jolly good!

Very mysterious.

This is a very intriguing and mysterious tune; the constantly beeping background seems to project a feeling of mechanical precision, whereas the reedy and marimba sounds at places such as at 1:17 sound more wild and natural. Or at least that's what it sounds like to me. I also really appreciate the piano tune at the very beginning--specifically, the first 4 notes; it sounds almost as if there's a note out of place, but I don't know what it is. This is _not_ a bad thing--rather, it sounds unsettling and unnatural. The contrast among the sounds involved is what makes this piece "paint a picture in my head", to make use of an overused phrase.
The only thing that could maybe be improved is that this piece seems a little spare at points, often with only one instrument leading at a time and no harmony apart from the background. However, as this is for a game, it might do better in this regard when associated with an area instead of playing by itself.
Finally, I'd just like to comment that what you describe sounds like a very interesting idea for an area in a game, and I'm curious to see what else you may come up with.

freakin' sweet!

amazing work on this piece. i'm currently looking around on here for some songs to use in a live action movie my friends and i shot and would like to try working with this piece to put it in the film if you allow. what do you say? :)

Same thing as with the last guy:
As long as you link back to this post and give proper credit (assuming this winds up on YT, where links are able to be put in descriptions or what have you, otherwise just credit is fine), I don't mind.

Epic!

is that an oboe playing throughout the piece? i like the high pitched sound it makes. i'm making a video game myself haha, and i'm trying at music too(which sucks). anyways, i'd love to know how i can make that sound. thanks! :)

ZaronX responds:

There's an oboe in there, yes, and it's just a soundfont. Most of my soundfonts come from right here: http://www.newgrounds.com/bbs/topic/1 200140

The other high-pitched thing is just a 3xOsc with a mix of triangle and square synths. If you mess with the buttons you can get some interesting things without ever even touching a knob, so I'm kinda curious what I can make it do if I keep fiddling with it. c:
