always fun to hear odd time signatures in video game music! was the 5/4 time signature an intentional parallel with the five-step counter?

Hah, no it wasn’t, it’s just a coincidence, but very astute observation! I think the purpose of the 5/4 here to me is to make the atmosphere feel more “contemplative,” like it’s not driving you to move forward quite as urgently as 4/4 would. Pausing for an extra beat on each chord makes it feel more “patient,” if that makes sense.
