If you want synthesizers on the other hand, I recommend Dexed, which is complicated to use, but thousands of free presets exist (I will gladly share them with you if need be)
And, while I wouldn't recommended this to anyone else than newbs, put the VSTs "YOU WA SHOCK", plus "OldSchoolVerb" onto your master track to give your music extra punch. Both of those are free.
Thx!
Here's another good source to get sounds for OpenMPT if you choose to go that route:

Here are soundfonts that cover a lot of instuments and genres. OpenMPT can import these files.

Or charlatan, which is delightfully simple to use. It's mainly useful for chiptunes though.

Once you learn how to mix for real tho, you will need to get rid of this habit, but it's very good for a start.
OpenMPT is what I use, but then again I also mainly make chiptunes, however it can be used for everything, really ^^

It's a real quality program imo.
Thanks a lot!
Are RPG's really what you want to go with for your first game? Even if they are mechanically simple, they are a huge time investment.
@ImpossibleRealms, you were right all along.
I only use samples to compose chiptunes now xD
And my game ended up using the .it module format!
Very interesting. I might even buy it for the novelty factor cx
Besides being a mushroom, is "Shitake" a subtle pun on "She Taken" , as in "SHI gets TAKEn all the freaking time" XD
Jokes aside, this is some really great pixel art ^^
