I learned to keep the contests simple.

So get ready guys and use all those overworld themes and those map themes you all love and use it as inspiration for this contest.

I recently made a track in 2 parts, 1st it's an opening (i called it New Day's Dawn) and the seccond it's a kind of "epic" part when i hear it i feel like someone says "hey let's go travel the world" (i called it Rise With Passion)

Can i use it for the contest ? i can upload it and you tell me if it fits the theme ?

Salem's just trolling, jit. It's a good theme.

And then I realized that the chord progression from Chrono Cross's Another World is the same progression as the chorus from Peace of Mind by Boston, and life was never quite the same.

This one doesn't, though. But I wrote it anyway so I'm posting it here even though it's not an entry. So there!!

BUT enjoy, nonetheless! First piece:

By the way, I instinctively capitalize JIT, as in JIT compilation. I had to backspace and type Jit!

(late 80's NES side-scroll-level-y)

I'm pretty interested to hear the other levels, and whether the sense of musical tension is higher in later levels than in earlier ones (assuming of course that levels get harder as one progresses, which may not be a correct assumption).

Once upon a time there were 5 warriors. J-Cob, sorryplane, silence, hashbrown, and TangyOwl. On their epic adventure they wanted to prove who was the best of the group. Going forth they past the border of Mexico finding a latina princess named salemjeanette.(jacob's theme plays). She was then captured by the evil surrebicard bear into his lair underneath a dark dungeon. To locate this dungeon, they must travel the vast Linkdemisenji forest. Traveling through the forest (hashel's theme plays), they encounter an archer named archardxazn. He gives directions to the fortress. They enter the dungeon lurking of evilness(trangoul's theme plays). They reach surrebicard and battle him. Unfortunately the bear is a maniacal scientist who created a time machine just incase. He travels back in time and sorryplane acknowledges that they must pursue. They use his machine as well and travel back into the 80's. Incapacitated but they awake to the sound of birds(soundandstuff's theme plays). They find the two entering a house. surrebicard had another trick up his sleeve as he tron'd the warriors. Now inside an outdated 80's computer they must play a 2D sidescroller game. (auriplane's theme plays) Each wield their weapons and battle through, but in the end one came out on top. This person slayed game, returned to reality, and defeated surrebicard as the warrior reclaims salemjeanette for own intentions. Who is this winner?
