The Sega CD version of Ending from Shin Megami Tensei, looped and extended for about 15 minutes.

I had a lot of fun messing around with assets, fonts, and whatnot to make this background. I also made it black for a reason.

Hopefully, I can get the companion project with a white background done...eventually.

Ginza was actually the track that motivated me to finish looping & extending the rest of this OST - the sheer confidence I got from finding the loop point by my second try managed to get the rest of them within a single day!

Fun Fact: most of this soundtrack doesn't loop at all. Not even in the game itself. The only ones that do loop in-game are the FM Tone Generator tracks, and those are clearly not up to the, well, CD quality of the rest of the OST. All of the other tracks act as if they were regular songs played on loop, fading out and starting again instead of looping like most proper VGM. What's worse is that the tracks often start adding instruments, changing styles, or trying new ideas...as they're fading out.

This, rather predictably, has made it a challenge to find and/or make loop points in over 2/3 of this ost. I'm glad I finally found them, but oohhhhh, it was FRUSTRATING sometimes...

And it sucks, because this is a pretty unique version of the soundtrack and has a sound and vibe that's...well, unique. Not perfect, but underrated and underappreciated, if you ask me.
