koifish | 595 Posted June 26, 2023 Share Posted June 26, 2023 OK, I feel like this is good to submit. It's an original composition simply named "Title Track". My first song, made in beepbox. I might do another submission later, or revise this, but I am happy with it for now. title.mp3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just want to make sure I'm not misunderstanding anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kind of has a Genesis/Yamaha sound. I'm really digging this one, personally. It kind of feels like you're in that final stage right before you are going into the final boss battle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used a program called Fast Tracker 2. Its an old music tracker software for DOS: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FastTracker_2 There are similar programs for Windows/MacOS/Linux as well, like MilkyTracker: https://milkytracker.org And someone also ported Fast Tracker 2 to Windows and MacOS as well: https://16-bits.org/ft2.php 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
koifish | 595 Posted June 29, 2023 Share Posted June 29, 2023 Cool. I might have to check this software out too. While I'm thinking of it, does anyone have a recommendation for an LSDJ tutorial series? As discussed previously ITT, the software is a bit opaque and I would appreciate a good step by step guide. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rdrunner | 445 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Super excited here. Never made my own chiptune song before because I never knew where to start. Then I saw the links to all the different free online tools. Thanks for posting this thread! Here's my entry, made with beepbox. Started off as a straight cover and ended up becoming a mashup of a couple of game shows that I would have liked to see made into NES games. rdrunner Entry.mp3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nesmaster14 | 464 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 (edited) Runs on a real NES. It's a bit of an ode to unexpected final boss fights in games. The boss fight after the final boss fight, second form. haha. Edited June 30, 2023 by nesmaster14 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really liked the Sega one a lot so I mashed them together. I also had a different gb one and I threw that one in as fake reverb lol. I'll post them individually so you guys can pick which one would work as the best submission.

If you guys told me these came straight from a Game Boy, Genesis, and NES game (respectively), I wouldn't have doubted it for a second. Amazing stuff.

So, with the voting concluded, @nesmaster14 has won in 1st place with 7 votes, @jajaja has won in 2nd place with 4 votes, and... nobody else got any votes! So, as such, we're going to be doing some SUDDEN DEATH VOTING! to determine who the 3rd place winner shall be! A new poll has been added, containing everyone's chiptunes except for nesmaster14's and jajaja's. From now until 7/12/2023 at 11:59 PM EST, about 2 and a half days from now, you all may vote for your personal favorite chiptune of the remaining options! Keep in mind that nesmaster14 and jajaja have already been locked in as the 1st place and 2nd place winners, you're simply voting for who will end up winning 3rd place. Just like the prior poll, as you would expect, you CANNOT vote for your own chiptune, you must vote for someone else's! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZeldaFreak | 3,746 Events Team · Posted July 10, 2023 Author Share Posted July 10, 2023 (Also I remember during last year's Pumpkin Carving Contest the polls were acting stupid and people had trouble getting their votes to actually go through, so if that happens again this time around just let me know and I'll try to fix it, haha.) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
