This is very good. 
I like those pitch slides a lot. Super groovy, that bassline is funky as funk.
Great melodies.
Super impressive composition skills.
Love the instruments you've made for this one. And all those slides are so nicely proportioned with the melody. Just works really well. Very enjoyable!

Aww this is really cute and fun! *bounces* everything is so good!
Yes! Cute as a peanut. The outrageous portamentoes are very expressive
Them swirly pads in th eintro are amazing. Wouldn't expect it to turn into a groovy chiptune so seemingly effortlessly. Those stereo "walks" around 2 minute mark are super fun too.
I have listened recently to pokemon TCG ost and it gave me a new perspective and appreciation for chiptune. this song made me think of that soundtrack when hearing the little arps that make chords (and the general groove too). however the sound here is way more full. which is a double edged sword, cause while it sounds better, it might also lead to being too busy sometimes.
the drums are super cool and the groove is infectious! and so much syncopation makes it hit even harder as the song goes on, while leaving space for everything to be heard. It does get a bit much sometimes, esp. with the lead melody jumping around a lot. however to be fair this style is still not my cup of tea - what I like about it is whatever it pulls from jazz and funk and when it has good composition that would work with other instruments. but I really appreciate the production and composition in this one. cheers!
Much needed sunny vibes in this wet and gloomy February! This manages to combine modern sound with chiptune in a very pleasant way, the synths are raw but the drums are hi-fi. Good job!
Such a great chiptune track! I love the intro too - pulls me into the track, then flips it on me as it becomes a super animated chip track!
"100% made and mixed on a Dirtywave M8 Tracker" should be one of my goals by the end of this year.

Nice. That lead is super wormy and fuzzy. Wry fun stuff!
*very. Whoops.
Love how bippity boppity hoppity it all feels! You have some really great melodic ideas in your head, so cool you're able to translate them into the M8. Really dig those delay layers at 1:55, very cool and dreamy. Great work!
Great track, I love all the movement. Great job keeping it feeling fresh melodically in the second half. Just an awesome track.
Love the thickness of those opening pads. Like a spaceship is coming in for a landing and then puts on a live show The sparkly arp leads on the right side are extra appreciated. The lil tempo changes give it a cool sidescroller vibe as well. The main overall melody is super catchy. Well done!
Wow, this is the cutest song I ever heard. It is extremely ecstatic and sounds awesome.
This tune has me smiling wide from ear to ear... Damn, so funky and delicious, wonderfully done...
Oh wow what a wonderful jam! There is a strong groove and melody in this chiptune track! I like the way you make the track evolve, with a slight break before the 2 minutes mark, and then building it back. There is also a sense of question/answer of the different synths. A lot of character, a beautiful track. Favoriting this one, it brings a big smile to my face.
I like that you have a main melody and a countermelody that seems to branch out into arps. also love the gradual tempo change!
great oldschool feeling chiptune – has that demoscene / keygen feeling to it. really great use of slides in the lead melody.
overall just a very fun tune, nice work!
Fresh popping beats. All round a solid track that I can see being a theme song for a few things.

I'm a few months late, but this is the best thing I've listened to so far today!
