Our new project is FFVII Rebirth (we did Remake already) and we're looking for more musician friends to join in, either as arranger and/or performer :) The rules are on the google sheet, as well as a link to our discord server (which is the easiest way to communicate and keep up with project news). If you have any question feel free to ask me here, but best is on Discord (Hashel is my username) :)

Any song from any game released in arcades. It can either be originally released in the arcade or officially ported to an arcade machine.

If you want to check if your song will fit a theme, feel free to DM me
