Someone's been playing Shovel Knight...

Well done! That melody is friggin awesome. However, no one (of the 30 people that have replied, L77, L77, L77, etc.) has done what was asked, so here I go: 8/10.

It's a little short. The chord progression can seem a little stiff at times, but that's fine as long as there is a little variation, like there is here. I love the way you seamlessly mixed pulse 2 with chord-bass things and melody backups.

However, the melody is where this song really shines. The note changes are handled with so much epic variation which can almost sound Fearofdark-esque, in the best sense possible. Overall great work on this, and welcome to the forums! You sure have made quite an introduction!
