Unfortunately I still can't figure out how to fix those metallic-sounding artefacts from the white noise channel, it's not supposed to sound like that, but it comes out that way in the recording, even after I fiddle with the recording configurations, I'm thinking maybe I should use Deflemask's .wav export feature for the sound for my future Game Boy music because it doesn't have that issue...
Anyway, Soldier Blade is AMAZING! One of the best spaceship shooters I've ever played, if not the very best, and it has one of my favourite soundtracks in gaming! I mean, I should only expect as much from the series it hails from... When I first played this game it blew my mind so hard I couldn't even believe what I was playing! I had played Blazing Lazers and Super Star Soldier before it, and both are truly great shooters, but Soldier Blade is an audiovisual spectacle a whole new level beyond what those games could offer! This game is SO good that I'm kinda afraid to recommend it to people before Super Star Soldier or Final Soldier because it makes them look rather quaint in comparison, but they're still great, so I don't want to potentially spoil people's enjoyment of them because they played this first and they didn't live up to it... (But to be fair, I played Final Soldier after this and I still love it a whole lot)
Alright, enough gushing, so, the song, the GB soundchip obviously can't fit everything, so I had to decide on cutting out either the secondary melody through most of the song, or cutting all the chords down to single notes, and in the end I decided to do the latter...
I felt the song was still plenty recognisable that way, and that keeping both the main and backup melodies in contributed to that quite a bit, even if it sounds a bit more shallow in comparison to the original...
I'm still rather proud of the results though, and I hope you enjoy what you hear ^^
