JRPG Chronicles: Golden Age Music Pack
A downloadable asset pack
🎮 Emotional Fantasy Leitmotifs & Atmospheric Ambiences in 90s/PS1 Style. Inspired by eternal classics, and the works of Yasunori Mitsuda (Chrono Trigger/Cross, Xenogears), and Nobuo Uematsu (Chrono Trigger, Final Fantasy 1-9). This is a passion project I've dedicated many months to, aiming to recreate the nostalgic feelings of the great games from the 90s era. I genuinely hope you'll enjoy it!

This is the BEST jrpg music pack I have heard on this website. It's the only one I've heard that truly captures the true nostalgia of the era, both in melody and tonality. Massive congrats to you, and thank you so much for offering it. I will be using this pack for my in-development pixel art jrpg %100.
Thank you so much for your amazing feedback! Your words are truly inspiring and remind me why I love creating music. I’m glad my work resonated with you and will be part of your pixel art JRPG.
I checked out your page, and your game looks fantastic! Best of luck with your project! 🎮🎶
P.S. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you need anything via email, DM, or comment.
The project on my page is actually a game from several years ago. The one that this music will be in is called "Seed of Nostalgia". And it's much more influenced by the mana series and chrono trigger, in it's art direction. I'm hoping to have it posted to itch by the end of next week with the first alpha demo. Steam page will be up then as well.
I know to achieve results this polished and authentic takes time, but if you make more packs, I will buy them <3
I’m really looking forward to Seed of Nostalgia, and if you don’t mind, I’d be happy to share it across my socials.
Also, just a heads up: this music pack will be getting new updates soon, and all of them will be free for anyone who has already purchased it. Thanks again for your support, and good luck with your release! ^^
I would love a share :D
About the pack getting updates that is super awesome news! I will keep on the lookout for that!
Here is a super short video of your music in my game's battle sequences :D
Wow, it looks super cool! I’m so happy to see my music in action xD
Posted it on my X page!
Gorgeous!
any plans releasing it under 16bit fx ?
Hey, thank you!
Yes, I’m planning to create a 16-bit version of this pack, as well as a brand-new 16-bit Era pack. If you have any requests or suggestions for this pack or anything else, please feel free to reach out via email, DM, or comments. I’ll do my best to make it happen!
Awesome!
good work so far!
