I found this more interesting than fun. But it will be something I will recommend for its uniqueness.

After almost a year of on and off playing, finally beat the Necrodancer. So satisfied. Now only like 12 optional characters and DLC to check out!

So I'm curious (because it seems there are at least a handful of people playing right now), which soundtrack is your go-to for playing Crypt of the NecroDancer?

I just found out that one of my favourite chiptune artists, Chipzel, remixed the OST for the Xbox One release of the game. That's awesome, and I now definitely wish I had an XBox One. Here's hoping the remixed tracks are released for the existing versions of the game.

Update: it looks like the Chipzel remix will remain exclusive to XBox One, much like the remix Jake Kaufman (Shovel Knight) created is exclusive to the PS4/Vita version of Crypt.
