Up-to-date news?! Preposterous!
Is there a reason why you beam over the 8th rest in places like m5 (LH)? To me it seems a bit inconsistent since you don't beam over rests in the RH, and you've split groups of 3 eighths as well.

Since I'm coming from Musescore over to Notepad I will wait to make those cosmetic edits. Though making changes back and forth between Musescore and notepad is starting to become a hassle. I've read the instructions on how to do it, there just has to be an easier way.
I used to write endings that were just a whole note, but i find those to be just boring or even if it is two measures it can be abrupt. Since when most of us listen to a looped game song, before the song fades away the track begins again. So that is what i tried doing. Start the track again and have it end as soon as possible.
Hey, I know this track! Thanks for covering it, and keep up the great arranging.
I personally don't think the long synth pad voice that enters in m13 works in the L.H. in this octave, combined with the L.H. It makes the L.H. a bit awkward to play, which in turn makes it even harder to combine the L.H. bassline with whatever happens in the R.H. I think it might be better if you forgo the R.H. voice here and put the new voice in the R.H. (you could even add some of the other chords back in), and leave it out at m21 when the melody takes the foreground.
-m45-48: The upper layer in the R.H. can't be played legato with the octave transposing bass F#'s, though I'm not sure how well it works with some more F#'s transposed up an octave too. I'll let you decide what you think looks and sounds best ^^
Measures 39-44 (the measures under the 8va) need some work. Two things about it:
- Try to avoid 8va bass clef in the right hand. Generally speaking what you want to write can still come across clearly either in treble clef or bass clef. Using an 8va bass clef here adds some mental load to the performer, and in particular makes it more difficult to tell how far apart the left and right hand parts are. Removing the 8va here makes it easier to see the next thing...
- The notes in the upper layer in the left hand are also present in the right hand part currently. I assume you meant to remove the voice from one of the hands?
Sorry, I meant including more of the arpeggios rather than leaving them as 8ths.
Ah yeah, I'm hearing it in the other places too now. If you find a way to incorporate it that you're happy with, it can be changed, and if not it should be fine as is.
