| Comment: | "I was working at the Sensible Software office at the time of the major music creation, but the title screen music never got finished. When I returned to Ocean I got on with some other things, all the time worrying about this unfinished tune. Finally I slapped something on the end of it. I knew I could never top the first part, that's what the problem was. In my mind the second part of the tune is pretty lame compared with the first part. But for some people it represents the mysterious, magical, unconventional aspect of 'Wizball' so it fits in some ways. But you can tell it's not really like the other music in the game, which was primarily developed when I was with the Sensi boys, basking in that Sensi VIBE." (MG) "I really worked on the sound design of the voices a lot. The music seems to "flow" and "breathe" unlike anything before it." (MG) |

| Comment: | "Tune #5, the bonus screen tune, consists of several short riffs, and John Hare came up with the most musical ones on his bass guitar. I remember he would come up with the riffs, playing them over and over at full volume on his band's P.A. in their rented terraced house in Southend (not caring about what the neighbours thought!!!) - and while they went out to get me a "blow-out" burger at 3am, I would be transcribing it and enhancing it (a little)."

| Comment: | "I composed the high-score music at Ocean after returning from Southend. Played it on the synth keyboard there. It's one of the few compositions of mine that I can actually play a decent rendition of on the piano." (MG) |

| Comment: | "Chris Yates wrote the game over riff on his electric guitar. They were pretty impressed by the translation when they came back with my blow-out." (MG) |
Blu:
Extremely enjoyable and relaxing minimal version!
Fhood:
Minimal & easy
xerex:
Best wizball hi-score till now, feeling near to original
omoroca:
Sorry to disagree with you all, but this one's easy like Sunday morning, very inspired!
marko42:
Near to the original and nostalgic arr
eliot:
Too much reverb… Lack of inspiration, but better as some voters suggested.
LMan:
Interesting minimal take on Wizball highscore. Fby makes the same mistake as I did in my version, with the lead instrument: he kept the squarewave.
bizarro:
The accomp-synths sound too percussive to me
Makke:
I seriously dislike that reverb…
LaLa:
It's tough to be a standout in a sea of Wizball remixes. This one is oh-kay, but doesn't inspire me.
c64glen:
Brings nothing new to a table with 17 remixes sitting on it already.
dimmignatt:
This is quite repetetive and uninteresting☹️ Boring imo…
weasel:
Sorry. Doesn't get to the point for me…
Waz:
Sorry, I really dislike this. Simple reason: there's too much reverb and it drowns out the whole piece somewhat making it sound like it was recorded underwater. The arpeggios and the lead are also too weak. It's just not good enough, full stop.
