SCHEDULED FOR DEMOLITION:

"The year is 2098, and college student Marc Xenon's summer plans have been wrecked by an intergalactic empire of jellyfish-like aliens (known as the Scyphozites) who have scheduled planet Earth for demolition. Even worse, they've decided to rub it in by installing a giant, neon doomsday countdown in the middle of the city. This is most non-radical! Marc must team up with his classmates R-4D the Ranger and Zirco the Mage to save the Earth, and many other planets, from the ravages of the Scyphozitan empire!"

I love your OST man, I find it really memorable. It was a little dissapointing seeing it rank low at the Comp Jam, but it's not your fault. Better luck next time legend! <3

Thanks so much! I hadn’t seen the rankings yet when I read this, so it was really encouraging to read a new compliment before I saw how my entry had done. And to be fair, I had rushed to complete the OST in about two or three days and I agree with most of the criticism that’d been brought up in the entry comments. So hopefully next time I’ll finally take the development slow and manage to do better with the composition.

I bet you will Mr. Jazzborn! I hope I'll see you in the future. Best regards.
