I arranged this a while back, here goes nothing...

• Your thoughts on changing the time signature to cut time? The oom-pah figure makes me feel the downbeats on beats 1 and 3 only
• m4 & m12 beat 3.5 should be eighths, not quarters
• On beat 3.5 of m8 you could add a staccato marking, if you want. Also, I split this part between hands in my arrangement, it makes everything a little easier..
• I hear a D instead of C in m13 beat 4
• I think the Gbs in m14 would be better written as F#s, to lead into the G in the next measure. I also still hear a D at beat 4.5
• The left margin seems a little large (going off of the PDF at least), can you fix that?

Also, I split this part between hands in my arrangement, it makes everything a little easier..

I've already made all the suggested changes, excluding this one since I believe it needs further discussion. To restate what I said in the Discord server, I don't disagree with this, I just feel that the held note in the bassline is important to keep.

Other than that, I agree with the other changes. I do tend to struggle with chunky chords, and they do sound better with those other notes. And I think I arranged this back when I didn't pay as much attention to how long notes are actually held. Anyway, files are updated.

Discussing over discord led us to leave this as is for now

• The margin looks better but could still a little improvement, try a value of around 0.6in (it's at 0.7 or so atm)
• Copyright: Intelligent Systems developed this and should be credited accordingly, and the game released in 2016

Everything else looks good

Updated.

one more thing (oops): the URL is missing the s in https

[ThatHiddenCharacter]

How correct you are. I must have used the out of date template file for this when I made it. 'Tis rather old now. Updated files.

You're not the first person that's happened to... I approve

Welcome back to the submissions side of things!

Everything looks good with the arrangement! Just a few minor formatting things to point out before acceptance:
- Make sure your composer text is right-aligned within the text box, and that you have an &/and before the last composer (the rest of our Color Splash sheets are using &)
- While not technically a problem, the header and footer could be moved a bit inwards, away from the edge of the page to be consistent with the other margins. I'd recommend following this guide: https://www.ninsheetmusic.org/forum/index.php?topic=10719.0. If you do, make sure to adjust the height of the composer/arranger info and top staff so they have enough room!

These are applicable to your other submission too. Looking forward to getting these up on site ^^

[ThatHiddenCharacter]

Done for both submissions.

[Latios212]

Alrighty! With that, this sheet looks good to me!
