"In My World"

This is my submission for the OST Composing Jam #7.

It consists of 7 original compositions.

Story of the imaginary game:

A girl, having created her own world, goes on an adventure to free her father from corruption. In the beginning, everything seems fine to her (represented by the rather calming and upbeat music), but as she explores said world, she discovers the dark secrets of it. 

In the end, the player gets to know that outside of her world her father isn't alive anymore and how she tries to at least keep his father with her at that time.

Intended athmosphere of the game:

As stated before, the music sounds happy and childish while having a tone of mystery in it. Later on as the journey progresses, the music gets more mysterious (as composed in "03 - Area Theme 2"). The more tense parts of the songs are supposed to be a kind of adaptive music which changes when you are being attacked or generally being in combat. A big inspiration for it was the soundtrack of the Super Mario Galaxy Series as, in my opinion, it really lets one feel the magnificence but also mystery of the vast universe. I tried to replicate that by using synths mixed with "real" instruments (like violins, pianos, etc.) and some suspended chords here and there.

Both ending themes should let the player experience how the girl feels after either failing or winning at beating the corruption. There's also a motif I used throughout most of the soundtrack, which I don't really know if it is audible (as I know where they are), but it is used almost everywhere.

"01 - In My World" is the music for the title screen.

"02 - Aquatic Adventure" is the music for the first area of the game.

"03 - Area Theme 2" is the music for the second area of the game. I couldn't think of a name, honestly.

"04 - Final Battle Music - Intro" is the music before the final battle against the corruption and represents her fear when seeing her father as he is.

"05 - Final Battle Music - Battle" is the music for the corruption fight.

"06 - Bad Ending Theme" is the music for the Bad Ending.

"07 - Good Ending Theme" is the music for the Good Ending.
