I have updated my way to calculate the score of the entries, which I have rated in multiple factors, then take the average for the final score. I did this because there are a lot of great tracks in this year, so I have to make the rating more strict to prevent everything to be a 6 or 7.
This is my favorite tracks in the whole 2024 compo and this is the only track that not only I have rated a 7, but also have a full score in every factors.
I love it so much that I was looping the sunvox file during working my coding assignment. The atmosphere is awesome, and I felt like I am peacefully sitting at a asian style shelter inside a bamboo forest, enjoying the surrounding with a nice, warm, gentle green tea. (perhaps it is the flute, which sounds quite asian)
The flute is top notch, it is so expressive and lively, definitely my favorite instrument in the track.
If I could rate a six stars in Newgounds, I definitely would.
