I think a little bit less loud on anything < 1999 and a little bit louder for 2005. Just my opinion though. Also in my opinion, the sound for 2005 makes sense to me but I don't "understand" the sound for the 1980s. You could try playing 80s music for that time period -- just a thought though! Again, I think this is super creative.

Thanks for the feedback! I reduced the sound for all eras to keep the audio clear, since it got too loud when combined. From my perspective, it's better than having it too loud, so that’s why I lowered it.I’ll look into tweaking it more especially for the 80s. Appreciate your thoughts!

Thanks a lot, man! Really appreciate you checking it out. I added the louder sound intentionally to give it a more immersive and real office vibe like you're actually there! But I totally get your point .I’ll work on adding a volume control so everyone can vibe their own way. Appreciate the feedback!

By far the most creative idea I've seen from this challenge, but jeez, the sounds are way too loud.

Edit: the 2005 sound is perfect though. It gives a very liminal feeling.

Thanks a lot, Oscar! I'm really glad you found it creative that means a lot!
The loud sounds were added on purpose to recreate that retro computer vibe, where machines used to be noisy and dramatic just part of the time-travel experience!

Appreciate the feedback β€” I’ll work on balancing the sound levels.
Would love to hear what others think too β€” feel free to drop your thoughts, folks! πŸš€πŸ’¬
