HoboKa's audio Reviews on Newgrounds

[Lights Camera Action]

Wow, super epic.

[Monster Manor OST]

Nice profile pick lmao.

I think you got that spoopy vibe down perfectly. Sidenote: the starting note seems really loud, dunno if that is a glitch on NG's side. But it might make the loop transition slightly awkward. Other than that, it's ok.

[Knowing]

Wow, this reminds me of Silver (PC). Great stuff.

[White And Red Music Box]

Pretty decent as a standalone tune, needs more work if you want it to be loopable, unless there is an audio cue that I missed hah. EDIT - K, prob just a NG thing.

Skashi95 responds:

Loops fine ingame!

[Get Down! (Hardmode)]

The off-keyness isn't in a good way imo. The melody and beat is kewl though. With a bit more work on the fine-pitch, I think this could be a 5/5. But as it stands...I can't really go higher than a 3. Keep at 'er man.

[Genfunk - Stage 5 (Star Cycles)]

Oh man, now this is some awesome Sega FM soundchip work here. The direction is great and the arps are epic.

[The Giant Golem (Hardmode)]

I'm not sure if tempo changes were do-able for the Snes. Correct me if I'm wrong. I like the spoopy vibe going on here. EDIT) In that case, here's a 5. :D

Sykozealot responds:

It's actually not a tempo change.

Instead I tried switching parts of the melody forward 1/4th a beat and 1/2 a beat slightly tweaking some of the notes forward and backward as well.

The goal was to have an off balance sound like somthing is going wrong, giving the player a greater since of urgency.

[GR Days of Playgames]

Oh good, there's bass here. A very interesting (if not unintentional) experimental sound. Haha. Well, this is OK.

🙏 Many thanks for giving us your feedback to learn and become better in my incoming videogame track. 👍👍

[NS Virtual Players]

Hmmm. Can't quite put my finger on what's making this not sound so good.

It feels like every part isn't fitting with the rest. The arp is super repetitive and it sounds like it's missing a beat here and there. The arp is also very grating. This could really benefit from a Bassline...Neglecting the bass was also a mistake I used to make when I was first starting up too.

[NS Console Released]

I like this one better than NS Virtual Players. The parts gel together better. Add in a bass-line and I'll give this a 3.5 :D
