    Ahh, loops in garageband. Aren't we all the artist? It's a shame I cant use them for my music coursework, but good song on the whole. Since its used as an 'action' theme/BGM then the small volume changes chronozphere picked up on should not pose much a problem. On the note of chords, there are some harmonic pairs (don't quote me on the name ) that can have some very nice effects indeed...

    If you wanted to overhaul it, the most important thing in song making can be structure, a similar transition from variations of a few themes with completely different or at least different intros and outros to the song can make a world of difference.

    But on the whole, nice song, it give it about 7.3/10 which is quite good by my scores since no song as a whole got a 10. Ever. (Not evern a 9.anything was awarded ever either so yay) although a few elite songs I really do like did get some high 8s but thats just me... Probably because of significance of the time I first heard them or some really good bits in them... So yay, but thats just me.
    I once tried to change the world. But they wouldn't give me the source code. Damned evil cunning.

    Hey Jason,
    Nicely done! I love the tune

    I did notice 1 or 2 volume changes (see the large spikes in the sound preview from the link you provided above)..I think if you could reduce that, then you have a winner for your game

    cheers,
    Paul

    Yeah this was my cheap hack attempt at making music. I was suprise that my tinkering actually produced something half decent. As an aside, I've also taken to learning how to play the piano which may or may not allow me to compose something pleasant. ...we'll have to see.

    Well if anyone has GarageBand and would like to have a try at remixing, I don't mind sharing creative control a wee bit for the fun of it. Just email me at team@garlandsquest.com and I'll send you the file to play with.

    I'll have a look at the spots you mention...

    Exciting update!

    http://ouyaforum.com/showthread.php?...ull=1#post4902

    Check out the Subject 33 Showcase website: http://www.redantgames.com/subject33/

    The prototype (alpha) is being ported to Oxygene as I post this. It will be released for Android devices, the OUYA game console, Windows, Mac and Linux (all via Java RTE) and eventually iPads and iPhones.

    Paul has finally finished porting the Alpha prototype to Oxygene! (And it works great on Windows & Mac OS X so far) Rejoice, this is a fine day.

    And to celebrate, here is a couple of videos showing the original game that inspired Subject 33...








    ...and because we love you guys, here is a latest screeshot of our WIP for Android, OUYA and eventually iOS.
