Care to be more specific?

Like what are you using to make the music? What recording tools do you plan to use?

I use Renoise as DAW with chipsound and magical 8bit and some drums samples

use the effects that renoise has, given that it has any, my lack of knowledge with renoise prohibits me from saying anything indefinitely, but every DAW should have effects/ a mixer panel, so use the effects to different channels and whatnot, and then send it to audacity and highlight the whole song and choose under the Edit column what you'd like to add, delete, change, etc.
mastering is just making the sound pitch perfect to YOUR ears.
It would also help to have studio monitors or studio headphones, so you get a clearer sound rather than the sound of consumer headphones.

Just going to play the devil's advocate here and point out that some producers insist on using consumer-grade headphones for all their mastering because they intend for the work to be heard by those type of headphones.  Just catering to their audience.

I personally use studio headphones and monitors and try to test the quality of my work on various systems (i.e. through my crappy car stereo) so that I know my work translates well across various audio setups.

For reference, this dude is doing great:

Belgium represent, y'all!

Finally saw him live a few months ago, in a fun, but cheapo venue, so I couldn't say much about mastering.

Well played, but you want the people who are going to BUY your music to enjoy it,
Enjoy it with quality.
and not everyone has crappy headphones, though most do.
some people do buy classy speakers.
most of my friends are musicians with studio monitors, so with that being said, I'm obviously going to go for the hidef sound.

To master, you must first apprentice...
