When I was listening to this, I was wishing I could hear it in an SNES-type soundfont. Yes, it's probably the Zelda syndrome rearing its head. Do you do any work with soundfonts?

As far as the musical content goes, you do a great job with the way it builds throughout, with one exception: in the shorter section from 1:08 to 1:20 -- I understand what you were trying to to by bringing it down before it springboards into its finale, but I fear that this section may be too long and it actually starts to lose energy where you want it to be gathering energy. I would think that you only need to go softer for four bars to achieve this effect.

Great melodies, great ending, great piece!
