Return of the gone:

 Started sometime in 2020 on classical guitar, worked a bit this spring and finished today. Pretty minimalist. A friend said the intro's a bit flamenco inspired or the like. It has no bass line since the 7th string with this virtual amp really did its job alone.

Take one almost final:

 First Super Nintendo style one made for the project. Kind of lacking in the first part.

 They liked this one the most. Not my favourite.

 

Following: https://deepstrasz.blogspot.com/2026/07/take-one-iv.html Zero replies from them devs to this day.

Both made sometime around April 2025 using William Kage's SNES extracted soundfonts.

Pay gun not good:

Started the sketch in 2018 on electric guitar. Begun it entirely with synth instruments in April 2026 and finished today. It's OKish, a bit too many pauses and tempo ruptures.

Take one IV:

Started-made in May of 2025. Intended to be a boss fight but considered too medley. The composition uses soundfont instruments extracted by William Kage.

 And of course, why not, no word from the devs after all this time.

Now was then:

 Simply started this one on midi controller towards the mid of this month and finished today. It's an OK mix of slow no percussion electronic and some metal ballad. The inspiration for it was the photos after I sent them to a cousin and she said the cloud looked like a black hole.

Take one III:

This one was considered sad or along those lines by the devs. I intended it to be a menu track.

While wanting it to be more fast paced and action packed it was seen morI e suitable for something related to vehicles or quicker gameplay. This one's meant to loop.

 

I guess they aren't that fitting to a fantasy survival RPG retro inspired indie game after all.

 Yet, radio silence from the developers as to the project's status or anything about it.

 

Started both of them sometime around May 2025 and finished in the following month(s). They were made with SNES/Super Nintendo Soundfonts from William Kage.

Never ending progress really:

Begun sometime in December 2022 if not earlier. Had many creative blocks and it's still not too good. Finished today.

Initially (now deleted) it contained a more gladiatorial part of the dialogue between the main character and the last boss but the main campaign developer thought it sounded too oriental. Well, afterwards it became too medley. So, I pictured it something like fighting the last enemy leader or a verbally heated prelude to that at least.
