I made a full soundtrack for my game! I made it in Furnace with the YM2414 OPZ sound chip. After a lot of experimenting with different styles of chiptune music, I think I like FM synth music the most, so I decided to learn how to use the most advanced FM chip in Furnace (that wasn't too scary like ESFM is) to it's fullest potential. I used a lot of different styles of FM patches in the songs.
Composing the songs was pretty tricky. When I was making the game, I made the stage themes and tilesets first, then composed songs based on the general vibe I was going for. Certain stages like stage 3 were kinda hard to come up with a composition for. I figured it all out in the end.
Hope you enjoy! Let me know if you would prefer individual uploads of the songs. Here are the time stamps:
00:00 (Title)
00:37 (Options)
02:24 (Weapon Select)
03:59 (Cutscene)
04:28 (Stage 1)
06:15 (Stage 2)
08:37 (Stage 3)
10:58 (Stage 4)
12:31 (Stage 5)
14:23 (Boss Start and Boss Blue)
15:57 (Boss Red)
17:26 (Boss Mix)
18:56 (Stage Complete and Game Over)
19:11 (Ending)

I have been doing more pixel arts than musics recently, but I finally finished a song and wanted to combine the two to make it more interesting! I drew a really nice background, and I also included a cute unnamed dinosaur hoodie girl character I made! ^w^ I am thinking about making a platformer game with her as the character you play as. Would u want to play a game like this? Please let me know! Gradient Garden [YMZ280B]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/d70gkhY7EyY/mqdefault.jpg)
