I’ve been playing to piano for about 10 years now and I recently decided to start composing. I’m also trying to compose for games as well. What do you think?

Awesome job! Liking what you’ve done:
- Those chords and harmonies great
- The melody’s super catchy
- Love how the composition it’s simple but has just the right amount of accompaniment
Some ideas for you:
- Orchestrate it – add strings that double the chords (or play one or two notes of each chord)
- Apply the “Hans Zimmer” treatment: repeat the chords (A flat7, B flat, G minor, c minor) but start with only the bass parts in one instrument, and then on each repetition, add more of the upper notes, adding more instrument each time. Listen to his Interstellar soundtrack as an example.
Keep going with this piece!

I am not a composer, so I unfortunately cannot give you any detailed or “expert” advice. But as a person who listens to music: this is honestly really great. I can really feel the emotion in this composition. Just want to say that my favorite part is at 0:52, really nice transition.
Nice job, keep it up!

As a pianist with almost 3 years of experience, I can say this is a great song for many anime games. I feel the start is a bit bland though, you can add many other details to it that will change the music.
