Outzone is one of those games i did drool most on the arcade, wish on a port some time in the future

On a second note, i started porting the music by capturing instruments with hoot; some adaptations had to be made to fit music in three channels and save space, like using a chord C1C2C3 rather than all different chords: sound polyphonic enough and use only one channel. If i keep all tunes together final size might be around 140k, hope is not too big. Else will need to split each level but there has to be end level and game over included.

I emphasize that my target is not absolute fidelity but to have a soundtrack that sounds similar to the arcade but keeps its own identity due to tech limitations.
