Hi, TipTop! I hope you don't mind, but I'm converting your .mod files into .uge & .vgm formats to use in both my Game Boy & Game Boy Advance projects.
Oh cool! I've been in the process of converting all the .mod's I have to .uge for some time, but it's been very slow going on my end, not as much time in my life as I thought I would have it seems.
I'm still working on getting all of this Volume 1 and Volume 2 converted to .uge, so those will (hopefully) eventually be available for purchase. In any case, I hope you find success in making those conversions for your projects!
Hi! Love these tracks! I made this game using a couple of them: https://davidkonsumer.itch.io/friendstar
All of these are amazing! I finally finished my game thanks to the music I found here! I want to show you what I made!
https://kaji-ken.itch.io/shroom-shooter
Thank you so much!
Oh man, this is brilliant!!!!!! I've tried making this retro kinda tune and REALLY appreciate the quality of this! Cross my fingers this isn't malware, download, and 5 stars!
Thank you dude!! i used Next Future Song on my Pizza Jam game: https://elmiguedev.github.io/pizza-jam-2024/
Thank you! Used in on my tic tac toe game! https://dachshundstudios.itch.io/tiktaktok
done very cool
I finished the demo of the game I am using your music in
here's the link if you want to play it

Nice! Died to the boss bone... but got my roleplay fix of being some dude who went on an adventure. Thanks for including those tunes as part of the experience!
Thanks for playing
Hello can I use this in a game I am currently working on.
Sure! Just be sure to follow the license rules on the README (also found here: License Rules Clarification)
ok thanks
Hello! Your music is fantastic. I ended up using both Vol 1 and Vol 2 for almost all of the bg music of my first try in gbstudio. Its a remake of an old windows puzzle game and you can find it here:
https://deadhawke.itch.io/cheese-terminator-reloaded-demade
Thank you so much for your amazing work and help in providing these songs!
It's always cool to see a GB demake! That's a pretty hard puzzle game, and so far I've only gotten to level 21, but I'm hoping to make it to the end!
Totally love the music you've made :D I ended up using some of it (and some from Vol.2) in my project, it was a huge help! <3 https://timbojay.itch.io/chumbles-bumbles
That was a very tight platformer challenge, great work! Thanks for including the tunes in your game!
Great work! I used one of these tracks, and one from Vol. 2 in my game Foal's Creek.
Beautiful looking game with a touching, somber story. Thanks for the kind words, I'm glad a few of my tunes got to be a part of this short and thoughtful adventure!
Thank you for making these music tracks! I used two of them in a little GB Studio game I made in three days: https://glueblade.itch.io/two-blobs-one-sunflower
What a cozy and genuinely heartwarming experience! I'm honored that some of my work could be included for your jam submission, awesome job!
This and your second volume of songs were life savers for the Metroidvania Month submission I just finished up.
My music person let me know pretty late that they wouldn't be able to get all the music we needed done, so I had to find some nice, cohesive songs for free or have no music at all.
While my game isn't exactly Gameboy style, these fit quite nicely. Just wanted to pop in these comments to say THANK YOU for providing these great assets. You rock!
Glad those helped out, and congrats on getting what looks like #2 overall for the jam! I really enjoyed the creature designs and dialogue while exploring, good stuff!
Used a lot of your music in my new game: https://maxthetics.itch.io/neonsomnia
You were one of the only packs I could find providing tracks with drumless versions and they were perfect for what I was going for. Thank you!
That was great! Very fun experience with super creative visuals all around. Glad drumless tracks helped out! I'll have to remember to keep those in any future updates
Heyo, I've used some of the songs here throughout the first demo of my game, you make some great tunes!
https://maxbeforetheone.itch.io/candy-quest-demo-v1
Wow, I just played through and I think the tracks you chose fit the vibe super well! Thanks for the praise and for bringing my work into the experience!
The songs have the exact vibe I was looking for, I used "Admin Rights" in my jam game https://chickengamedeveloper.itch.io/the-spring-roll-of-the-dice
That was a great puzzle experience, and I agree that the music matches the feel nicely!
Cool tunes! I used the "Claimed" track for a game of mine. :) https://hohenstaufer.itch.io/feeding-time
That's awesome, thank you! What a fun game concept as a zookeeper, I think that track fits really well for it
comercial?

Your music is incredible and I love hearing it! My favorite is Admin Rights, it has a nice beat.
Thank you so much, glad you enjoyed it!
