  1. Hi all! I'm posting this topic to announce my upcoming 9-bit chiptune music game, Rhythm Quest! Wishlist on Steam now! Rhythm Quest is a 2-button rhythm platformer game developed by DDRKirby(ISQ). (that's me!) Jump, attack, and fly to the beat to get past challenging obstacles in this rhythm-based twist on a traditional "runner" game. I'm personally handling all aspects of the game, including coding, music, game design, artwork, and production. In particular, being both the composer and level designer has allowed me to create music tracks that are mapped out specifically to provide call-outs to obstacles in the game. Check it out in action in the gameplay trailer! Each type of enemy requires different button sequences to defeat: Wings offer extra mid-air jumps, while flight paths require you to hold down the jump button: Speed zones change up the rhythm of the song: Rhythm Quest will release on Steam/itch.io for PC/Mac/Linux, as well as iOS/Android, and Nintendo Switch. My estimated release date is currently late 2022 (?), but well...you all know how release dates can be for game projects [knocks on wood]. I've just recently published the steam page for the game, so I'd really appreciate it if you would check it out, wishlist, and share with anyone else who you think might be interested! If you're interested in following along with the development of the game, you can check out the devlog on Medium. You can also follow along on Twitter, or join the Discord server to get notified whenever a new devlog article comes out. I also have an official website for the game.

  2. Oh, I remember this one from the WIP boards last year! It's worth reading that short thread because Akidna showed a great willingness to take on board my feedback, and has clearly made improvements to the production. Seems to be the ideal way to approach constructive criticism and use it to improve as an artist. Warms my heart! YES Edit: I appear to have embarrassed myself here... the YT upload and the sub are the same. It's possible Akidna made the edits based on my feedback and has a revised mix somewhere. Either way, it's over the bar as-is, but those pointers I gave him still stand. Glad he agreed with my critique nonetheless.

  3. Grab yourself a well-mixed track in roughly the style you're going for, and aim to mix similarly. Compare. Especially check that your lows aren't too loud, as they'll eat up a lot of headroom, and that your leads are bright enough, ie have enough high frequency content. It's okay that yours isn't as loud, mixing is more important than loudness, and loudness is easier when things are well mixed. Turn down your reference track accordingly. You get used to the sound of your track as you're working on it, so make a habit of using a reference track to reset your ears so you can tell when you have too much reverb, too much compression, too much bass, too much of anything. You can also check your mix by turning down the listening volume and mixing on super-quiet, because then you'll only hear what's most important in the mix. Use this to check that background things stay in the background and the important things are the loudest. Compare with your reference track like this too. Use decent mixing headphones.

  4. Hey! I emailed you back but I have officially moved your song onto the evaluation phase. Totally my mistake, so sorry that this one slipped through the cracks!
