3D Pinball Space Cadet? Oh boy you just brought back a whole wave of nostalgia for Windows 95. Yikes!
Initially I didn't fap this blog, but I think I'm obligated to fap every single blog you write from now on simply because you introduced me to Devil's Crush.
Just so we're clear, you composed/played some of that music or something, right? The music is pretty boss. And I freaking remember playing a ton of this stupid pinball game. It was awesome back in the day. They should always package in a new pinball game with versions of Windows.
The reason I probably didn't even open your last blog is because it said Final Fantasy somewhere on it. I just can't get interested in anything FF related, for some reason.

Hehe didn't mean to be a baby about it and cry for faps or anything (the first sentence was obviously just a joke and a little extra pimping in case someone missed the previous post just because there wasn't a CBlog Recap that day or so).
It is a bit disheartening on more than a personal level though when something like this is basically ignored while pure troll- and failblogs (see: commenter before you...) rakes in both faps and comments; sends a pretty shitty message of what people are interested in to be honest, knowatimsayin? But I guess I'll keep posting until someone (respectable) tells me to sod off.
Regarding Final Fantasy, to each his own, all good! T'was one of the less popular ones to boot. More about the music though, but then again tastes differ there as well. ^^
And regarding Pinball, man I so agree. The new "Games for Windows" or whatever is going on now is just weird to me, don't quite understand it and don't see anything I like. :(

I completely agree with you. It is disheartening to people when they worked really hard on something and then they notice that the trolls are getting all the attention while they are getting none. I really wish people would stop giving trolls the satisfaction by commenting on their blogs, but apparently that's not going to stop happening (for whatever reason).
Anyway, it's really cool that you're covering video game music. Maybe a little more detail in your blogs would get people more interested and fill them in on what you're trying to do. In this blog for instance, it's sort of unclear that you were the one who performed the music.

Not to argue but eh, I dunno. Sidebar has a giant image of a guitar + NES cartridge and says "Doing a lot of videogame covers", almost all my blog posts are VGM covers, first sentence in this blog post refers to a "cover the other day", link leads to a video titled "[...]Cover by Torzelan"...
...I'm really going to go ahead and say that if someone doesn't catch on to any of that he/she isn't remotely close to caring to begin with. A little more detail/text content is a fair point but I'm not sure what to make of history. The pessimistic way of looking at it would be that that's just more "work" for a pretty much non-existant target audience.
Anyway I feel like I'm just QQ'ing now and that wasn't the intention; could be a topic in itself but I swear I've already seen people blog about this before.

The optimistic way to look at it would be that you are doing what you love, and as a bonus some other people appreciate it as well ;-D
Also I just now noticed that the sidebar image is an NES cartridge resting on top of a guitar - I thought the cartridge was resting on top of a computer keyboard or something. Which is embarrassing considering I've been playing guitar for 14 years, but there you have it. Any chance you have a slightly more zoomed out version of that image? Just a friendly suggestion.
Keep on rocking!

Sure but it's difficult to strike a "zoom" balance that makes sense for avatars and such considering you barely ever get to have an image much larger than 100x100 or so (even here to the left the same image is resized to... 50x50 I think?).
14 years wow, I've barely really listened to music at all that long hehe. Nice!
