Micro Mages Original Soundtrack

2019 · NES, Windows

Actual NES hardware, actual 2019 release. The chip work on this is absurdly tight for a four-player platformer crammed into 40KB. "Heroic" bounces with this punchy square-wave melody that sounds like it could've sat next to Mega Man 2's best tracks and held its own, while "Dreamy" pulls off something genuinely floaty and atmospheric with just the 2A03's limited channels.

Then "Boss" drops in with relentless pulse-channel aggression that gets your thumbs moving faster. The whole thing nails that balance between catchy and functional that the best NES composers understood instinctively. A proper love letter to 8-bit sound design that never feels like nostalgia bait.

Boot it up on real hardware if you can.
