Hehe, glad you got to see the cartoon. I'll tell you what, the theme is my favorite part of the series.

Thank you! I appreciate the thought-out response.

I believe the "cartoonishness" you mention is created by the electric cello in that section. Strangely enough, using a real cello section instead doesn't quite sound right. The electric cello part ended up growing on me instead XD

Also while the ending may be a bit abrupt, I feel it makes me want to listen to the track over again. Especially the section up to 1:19. I wasn't expecting it to sound the way it did, but that synthesizer and everything that leads up to it makes my brain happy.

Thanks a lot mate! Yeah I had so much fun with the SNES Music competition on here that for the next week after I wrote my entry I just kept jamming out additional tracks (although not as polished/detailed as the first one) in that SNES style... I'm thinking of actually putting together a really cheesy 2D RPG Space Opera game to the music at some point haha (but I'm working on another more serious game project for the time being)...

Hey... maybe I should start a competition on here... "Writer the score for an imaginary video game", (abridged, say 15 mins of music minimum) maybe have a vote on the genre/era/console or whatever... let me know if you'd be interested in that and I'll try and put something together, maybe with John Montoya, I'll have to save a bit of money for some prizes.

Cheers!
