"No Waiting (Old Ruins)" is one of many songs from NightSky that is minimalist in its delivery but is still very fitting for the game, especially when coupled with the environmental background sounds in the Old Ruins. There really isn't a whole lot I can say about this particular song apart from how I feel when I hear it and how it fits within the context of the world. The sound of wind is a great accompaniment to the glass-like plink of the ball and the textures of the guitar, and it just maintains that calm and cosy atmosphere that NightSky exudes. Granted, some of the levels and the methods of moving right to left, or maybe right to left to right to left to right to right, can be rather aggravating, but for the most part, it's a cozy physics game with relaxing atmospheres and music to match.
