This is a really great track.  I wish I was as musically talented as you.  Honestly, I loved everything about the track except the percussion.  If I were you, I'd redo the entire percussion and go for a less-is-more approach.  I thought the hi-hat was overdone and I also didn't like the timbre of the kick drum at all.  I didn't like the snare either; maybe it was the envelopes used which didn't have a sharp enough attack.  I really like to hear that harsh chiptune sound of a noise-based snare.  I think that harsh noise-based snare sound requires a very short attack.  Thanks for sharing and keep up the good work!

I found this new chiptune synth Kickstarter campaign originally from a reddit post.  I was thinking about backing the project to get one.  Does anyone know if there are any other synths out there like this?  Are there any other synths out there that emulate the NES chiptune sound without having to use actual NES hardware?
