Sounds good and has interesting variations (right?).
My newest mod - Commander Keen: Sunset: viewtopic.php?t=8568 | codename H.Y.E.N.A.
Actually, it sounds like you just used the MIDI version. There's supposed to be pitch-bends in the original song, so some of your notes sound lower than they should. Not sure how to explain it, but in the beginning, the first note of each measure should be one full tone higher. (Maybe Xky or someone else who's better with music can explain)
You're right, I did base it off of the MIDI version. Part of the reason why it sounds so different from the original is that no instrument in Mario Paint Composer sounds like the main one in "Make it Tighter." I went with the closest instrument, which actually doesn't sound very similar. Another of the problems is that Mario Paint Composer has a range of B5 through C7, so I had to raise certain parts, like the bass part, in order for them to work. The pitch-bending is in both the IMF and the MIDI, but I decided to take it out so that it worked better and was easier to make. I may try to do a version with the pitch-bending later, though.Genius314 wrote:Actually, it sounds like you just used the MIDI version.

Also, I completed "Welcome to a Kick in the Pants in Good Old Hillville" and "Bagpipes." Unfortunately, the main instruments from both of these aren't found in Mario Paint Composer, so they sound different from the original versions. For example, with "Kick in the Pants," I decided to use a trumpet like in the MIDI.
