it looks excellent to me. when I write music I think all my pieces are bad but then they wind up on youtube with 60,000 views. Other peoples opinions matter more than your own because you are your worse enemy.
I'm definitely gonna make a randomly generated version of birdbrain in Unity. That was such a fun game. I definitely enjoyed hearing my music in the game good job.
I even put a piano keyboard with the key of c major labeled with the numbering system. Keep in mind these numbers only apply to what is in the key of c. So you can only make chords that have the root note as c. such as 1,3,5,7. The piano is a little harder to memorize scales compared to the guitar because of the shape changes. If you wanted to know the key of D you would play the major scale in the key of d and number them 1-7. 1 as the root note,2 the second note of the scale and 3 the third note of the major scale. For example, a"b3 " would be a half step down relative to the 3rd note of the major scale.
technically the minor key is 3 scales. you almost have the key ingredients to play minor keys HitCtrl you just need to learn the melodic minor. Here is a tutorial video that explains the minor key that I made. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MisvDaa0Ufw&t=206s
Basically what you should get out of the video is that you should be able to make chords out of the three scales and mix them together. For example, the 1,4,5 chord progression can be a chord from the harmonic minor, another chord from the melodic minor, and another chord from the minor scale (aka aeolian). If you want to play it without it sounding to off you can play each arpeggio or chord for four measures for each mode for 4/4 timing. This is four up and downs per each bar (measure).
You use the three scales to make the chords and the cool thing is that you can use modes found in the major key to play over those chords or at least for the modes that have the notes of the chord in it.
Keep in mind the new song I made uses the minor key and I used the Dorian mode from the major scale to play over the minor 7 chords in every case. I also used variations of the Lydian mode and Ionian mode over the major chords. Which all those modes are jazzy.
I invited you to the slideshows for those tutorials.
Scales for the most point do not sound good because there to consonant to the chords you play behind or at least for the beginner scales. To much consonance makes a song boring. By playing modes you can add dissonance. I can play notes outside of a scale to technically define it as not playing within a scale by using the scale to resolve notes that are dissonant. The major scale can be converted into the Ionian mode and other scales. The Ionian mode is mostly consonant to major chords. The reason most people don't want to learn scales is that they play the scale without utilizing the modes properly which if you thought of it in terms of the major scale it's very much like playing multiple keys for a song. Which to the human ear does not sound like a scale when using modes. So for example if I played a major key only with 3 different major chords I can play the Ionian in three different positions or at the root note of the chord. Technically I would have to play the Ionian for at least four bars or measures as well for each chord to make it acceptable. If I want to add chromatic notes outside of the Ionian I can resolve those outside notes immediately with the Ionian notes. So technically if I add the chromatic notes I'm not playing a scale but rather using a scale to resolve dissonant notes.

Good job Hitcrtrl. Sounds kinda Irish my heritage. I love it. =)

This is an awesome song. Good job.
this is the longest game I have ever created. lol https://youtu.be/pIeyAJpw0ZU
I watched all three videos. That was entertaining! Good job. That game is longer than any game I've made. Did you use a game engine?

This entire song uses scales all the way throughout. https://opengameart.org/content/rpg-ghost
