22,050 Hz (22 kHz), which provides a "lo-fi" but clear quality suitable for the 8-bit aesthetic.
Because Organya prioritizes generated waves over samples, the notes are impossibly pure. A trumpet sample at 22khz8bit would sound like mud. But a synthesized square wave? It remains crystal clear. This is why the melodies of Cave Story cut through the action so well—they are not samples of real instruments; they are perfect mathematical shapes softened by low resolution. organya22khz8bit
This release does not try to hide its technical limitations; it wears them as armor. It is a fascinating exercise in nostalgia and technical minimalism. 22,050 Hz (22 kHz), which provides a "lo-fi"

Organya does not stream audio from the hard drive. It renders sequences in real-time via software mixing. On a Pentium II machine (the target hardware at the time), mixing 8 channels of 44.1kHz audio would have caused stuttering. At 22kHz, the CPU load dropped significantly, ensuring that even with a dozen enemies on screen, the music never skipped. But a synthesized square wave
