After quite the delay (again) since our last Game Suite Zone episode, we finally take a look at an example of a recently-completed composition! The challenge was to simply compose video game music, so as long as you tried, you did great! Besides that, I can't just issue a challenge and not do it, so you can feel free to take a look at my creation process!
Here are the topics we covered. Subtitles are now available!
1) The Music Itself - 0:45
2) Thinking of the Idea - 3:45
3) Fitting the Subject Material - 5:39
4) Crafting Around the Idea - 7:56
5) Self-Reflection - 14:10
Hope this video was worth editing in 100-degree weather. Now I have more evidence to explain that the universe is trying to torture me!

Sonic, Knuckles, Cream, and Amy sprites (from thumbnails) were ripped by Dave [Hypero] Edwards, and Chao sprites were ripped by Psychtaygar -- both from The Spriters Resource!

![Starting Anew! - Zelda For Glory! [1]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/x6niNtqhw0k/mqdefault.jpg "Starting Anew! - Zelda For Glory! [1]
After hours of lurking around the Zelda boards, Im finally making some sort of progress. Yay.
Ive been getting more hardcore into Zelda practice lately, so I guess Im maining her again, like with Brawl.
So far, Im using DSmash to punish a lot, which I want to avoid. Im trying to use more DTilt/UTilt strings. Ive come up with a lot of cool combos/followups. I just need to get into the habit of using them when I can.
Additionally, I really need to get rid of old For Glory rolling/spotdodging habits. There are always so many moments that I could have done some damage if I just didnt spotdodge every time my attack whiffed. I tend to do that on instinct.
Im also learning a bit more about specific matchups (like Ness, Mario). After looking at Zeldas frame data, I also have a much better idea of what I should and shouldnt be going for. I just need to practice incorporating them into my actual matches, since they seem to go right out the window when I start.
Oh, and Im actually using elevator now. Youre welcome.
Here are a handful of sites that I can be found on!
