This spreadsheet contains my categorization and analysis of chromatic mediants found in video game soundtracks.

I'll put some sort of legend/guide here eventually?

In this paper, I explore and categorize chromatic mediants from several games. I propose the Cadential, Shuttle, Bridge, and Mid-Phrase categories for chromatic mediants and explore a few more specific examples.

The games used for this paper are the following:

• Hollow Knight (Team Cherry, 2017) - Christopher Larkin
• Metroid Prime (Retro Studios, 2002) - Kenji Yamamoto and Kouichi Kyuma
• Metroid: Zero Mission (Nintendo, 2004) - Kenji Yamamoto and Minako Hamano.
• Pathfinder: Wrath of the Righteous (Owlcat Games, 2021) - Dmitry V. Silantyev, Mikhail Kotov, Pawel Parepelica, Dryante, and Sergey Eybog.
• Super Mario Galaxy 2 (Nintendo, 2010) - Mahito Yokota, Ryo Nagamatsu, and Koji Kondo.

The data from this paper is included in the Chromatic Mediants in Video Game Music Spreadsheet.
