Personally, I'm just super-happy that a re-imagining of this game is happening in the first place. Story of the Blanks is such a classic in the fandom, it's great to see it making a comeback like this :D.
I feel there is only so much I can rightfully judge given that, as much as I'm trying to practice, I have yet to actually produce my own music. I can tell you, as just a listener, that it was definitely very atmospheric and creepy. Not *as* creepy as It could have been, but it definitely built up overtime and I liked the second half or so, from 1:18, a lot more.
How could it have been better? for some reason, I feel those sounds (strings?) like at 0:08 could be better - I get that it's trying to go for a sort of "nails on a chalkboard" sort of spine-tingling sound but it could be better to really create that sort of effect. As is, it's certainly helps to create the tension, but in my head, not "as much".
Again though, with my sheer lack of experience, you might want to take all this with hefty doses of salt.
