Dude, you have no idea how timely your music appeared in my recommendations. After years of pondering, I finally decided to try making a simple platformer and was thinking for a long time about what musical accompaniment the game should have. As soon as I went to the website, I saw this music. Just from the heart, as they say, heart to heart.
Yo these are awesome, thank you! I'm using them in a prototype I'm working on where you play as a frog that has mechanics similar to Jump King. I made the sound effects in jummbox, but they seem to gel really well with the music provided here.
Really great to see this being used in FOSS projects - thank you for sharing! Best of luck with the engine, looking forward to seeing what can be done with it :)
I'm using Renoise for sequencing - love the old-school tracker workflow! - with a variety of VSTs.
Most of the chiptune-esque tracks use Soraboy, which is a fantastic VST for creating gameboy style sounds.
I'm also a big fan of TAL Noisemaker if I need more typical subtractive synthesis sounds
For soundfonts I use Sforzando and various sample packs from all sorts of places (being careful to check the licence terms, of course). I'm not especially fond of the interface, as it makes basic tasks like browsing through your sample library really clunky, but it's the best solution I've found for now.
This was great, thanks for sharing! The gradual increase in pitch and background warping is a lovely effect, felt really uncomfortable by coin 99 (in a good way, of course!)
The song is very cool, especially Mountain A song. We use that music for our game for join the game jam competition. and you know, we win on that competition :D.
thank you for your awesome music this my game btw, if you want to play our game
Thanks for sharing! Love to see the tracks get used :)
It's a great little game too! Didn't manage to beat it (the level with the long, jagged path was too tough for me in the end), but the wind mechanic is a lot of fun to play with and makes for a really enjoyable challenge :)
I released my game Geometry Caravan 2024 just yesterday and I used your song, Critical, is the main theme. I credited you in the description but I couldn't in the game itself.
Thanks for the putting the songs in the public domain. I really appreciate it.
Really nice music! and you're waiving the credit/liscence too! thats more than kind of you, I hope you get donated well for the amount of quality you have provided,
Are you explicitly wanting no credit? There is a song in the pack I think would suit my game and thinking of remixing it to suit, I would love to put credit and link to this page if so.
Hey! I used "TYPE:CAST" and "Phone Home" in my first game, Space Jerks. They were perfect for what I was going for. I put a credit in the game, and linked to your profile from the game's page.
Thanks so much for sharing! The game is great, some lovely one bit pixel art, and a really solid gameplay loop that ties in really well with the narrative. Just about managed to get to the end and surrender to the DreadHand with just a couple of hearts left, difficulty felt perfect. Loved little details like the level decreasing as you give up your power :)
There's loopable versions of all of the tracks in the main download labelled "all tracks", but if you've got data restrictions on downloads I'd be happy to temporarily upload the loopable version if that would help?
Hello, awesome author! I used one of your soundtracks in my game and here the link https://c-14.itch.io/mess-in-the-shed. Maybe you'll find it funny <3
This is nice. I didn't know you made all the songs yourself. They sound like they are made by someone who knows about music theory. I might use them in a new game if I ever make one ^^
Really happy you liked them! I've uploaded all of the separate standalone files, if you need any of the loopable tracks let me know and I'll add the ones you need :)

Love this - looks like great fun, and pixel art is gorgeous! Thank you for sharing :)
These songs are fantastic, really great work! Works perfectly in games or just for listening while vibing. Great collection!
Hello, I'm adding this audio pack to my FOSS game engine to be used in the demo (with credits listed of course), you can check it here: ArcadeFighter
Thanks o/

wow, this is exactly the kind of thing we were praying to find for our games. Thank you so much for making these XD
No worries at all, and thank you! :)
what program did you use to make these songs? They all have that good ol' gameboy/nes feel to them

Nice music but i can't download new tracks separately
I'm using your music in my game. I'm going to release an update for it this week. Should i write here when the update will be released?
I've uploaded the missing tracks - thanks for pointing it out!
Please feel free to let me know when the update releases :)

The songs are very great! What name do I give you in the credits of my game? :D
Thank you! Not Jam is fine for the name, appreciate the credit :)

thank you for your awesome music
this my game btw, if you want to play our game
Escape Plan 2000
Thank you! The game is great, really gets tricky in the later stages - the parking attendant is so fast!
ahahahaha, maybe we need some balancing, before we release full version of this game
Super dope! Using the Dark Cavern Theme for now for the main menu of a free game I am building :) Really nice work!
Thanks! Please feel free to send a link when the game releases, I'd love to check it out :)
I have used this music for many small projects in my videogame degree, your music is great!! This is our last game: https://ptozrro.itch.io/hell-of-a-disco
Thanks for sharing, love to see how people use the music! The game was great, tons of personality, and I always love a good top down shooter :)
Hi! Great stuff! I use your title Switch With Me in my game made for the b3agz Jam 2024. Here is the game: Ballon and Spikes by Stupid Robot (itch.io)
Thanks for sharing! Love to see the tracks get used :)
It's a great little game too! Didn't manage to beat it (the level with the long, jagged path was too tough for me in the end), but the wind mechanic is a lot of fun to play with and makes for a really enjoyable challenge :)

Thanks for sharing and providing credit! This is great, absolutely love the artstyle and the foley sfx are very charming :)
Thank you for the compliments, I'm glad you enjoyed it! :D
Hey! I used your track "Critical Theme" from this bundle in a recent game jam submission.
Added credit on the game page if that's ok:
Thank you for the incredible tune!
Out of curiosity, would you happen to have a loopable version of that track available for purchase or download?

No idea how I missed that folder with the loopable tracks. Perfect!
Glad you enjoyed the game too! Really appreciate the kind words.
I will be sure to credit you and these are amazing
Thank you very much :) if you end up using them please feel free to send me a link to your project, would love to check it out!
ok!
Thank you, you are my hero.
Very good bro, it's rare to find people like you who let you use free music without any problem
Thanks! Happy to share :)

Hi! Thanks so much for sharing, love to see the music being used
The game is a lot of fun :) love the bird's jump/eat animation, I can relate to that kind of love for food!
Спасибо за саундтреки. Если я сделаю свою игру, то я укажу тебя в титрах
Thanks! Hope the game goes well for you :)
rad rad rad
Thanks so much :)
This is nice. I didn't know you made all the songs yourself. They sound like they are made by someone who knows about music theory. I might use them in a new game if I ever make one ^^
Thanks! I'd be delighted if they were used in other games, please share a link if you do :)
I practiced making 3D game following GDQuest's "Squash the Creeps" tutorial. I used one of your song for the game, and it really improves the game!
https://tanasak.itch.io/squash-the-creeps
Delighted to see (hear?) it being used!
I loved the songs! Would you be able to upload the separate files? So you don't have to download the whole pack for 1 or 2 songs
Really happy you liked them! I've uploaded all of the separate standalone files, if you need any of the loopable tracks let me know and I'll add the ones you need :)
Thanks man! Sorry disturb you
