STIL comment"The ingame music was supposed to sound a little like Reggae, because the Rainbow Arts Boss was a fan of Bob Marley & others and the Title music [...] was a homage to True Blue from Madonna, also one of his favorites. In the end I think, despite the inspirations, the songs have their own character and are the only part of the game that wasn't heavily borrowed from Super Mario Brothers, which is something I am proud of."

Melaure:
Piano masterpiece…
NecroPolo:
Great playing. As a single instrumental, it feels like a glass of clear water. I really like the tension increase after 1:30.
Aule:
Wonderful!
Pepino:
Very good contribution. Your talent at piano will surprise us with future covers!!!
prowler:
Flawless pianoplaying 😊
koroner:
Solid red face IMHO 😊
LaLa:
It's not easy to distill a complex piece of music down to two hands on a piano, but you've done a superb job. And you've also injected emotions into it. I wish there was a bit more dynamics in it, but it's excellent as is.
Arne:
Great piano music with so much feeling and dynamic - only great
pie vs pie:
Beautifully simplistic but doing everything it should to get the tune across a contender for the top spot maybe? We shall see. Excellent tune
Mordi:
What a nice track!
ulfepulf:
Great!
Tremix:
I've never really liked giana music, but this was pure awesomeness! I wish it was longer though.
crik:
Very good!
brix:
Finally again something handmade that captures the mood of the original perfectly. Some things are best served plain and simple. This is it, nothing more to add; techically it's just a piano, so not outstanding. Doesn't need to be, it's perfect as it is.
omoroca:
Great arrangement of a rather poor original SID!
Ryrynz:
Quite nice, you embellished a little but just not quite enough for me to award the red. Great job overall.
Boz:
The Giana title music lends itself perfectly to a mournful but melodic piano piece, and Christian plays up to that. Great cover!
slaygon:
Great emotional connection to the song. Lacking a bit of depth, but all in all; Great work!
Chainsaw:
Technically great, but it's just a piano version of Giana Sisters, not more. Anyway: Good
AcidBlock:
Doesn't really add anything new to the already classic and overdone sid tune. Nicely played, but that's it.
Craze:
It's a nice piano performance - well done - but I would like a bit more to give this re-make higher than average.
