Really, the only specific influence I can recall is that the piano part at the end was inspired by Kingdom Hearts' title screen tune (["Dearly Beloved"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jk4P10nsq4c)). I love that song. Fun fact: I didn't realise for a while that "Homestuck" and "Alternia" were technically remixes themselves, making this a 3x remix-of-remix combob. + + <i>Catboss:</i> ([SoundCloud description](https://soundcloud.com/catbossstudio/beginnings), excerpt) + + > NEW GAME<br> + LOAD GAME + + <hr> + + One of my two submissions to the Land of Fans and Music album, an unofficial compilation of fanmusic created within the Homestuck fandom.

Chrono Trigger's [title screen tune](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JU1rM8UYpus), in particular, was a big influence, as was the simple ["Dearly Beloved"](www.youtube.com/watch?v=g25QXnhVijQ) from Kingdom Hearts. The chiptune aesthetic certainly helped! --- Track: Downtime Directory: downtime-lofam |
