If you haven't been keeping up, Spitfire LABS has put out a couple of really great free plugins with some really wild origins that sound like they're just made for doing dungeon synth:

This is wonderful, exactly what I've been looking for to get started, really helpful

I haven't been, but my project list is clearing up again, so I should have the time to look into it at the least.

Synth1, Vital, Zebralette (iirc).

In many ways, sticking with some of this stuff would have saved me quite a bit these last few years i've been trying to make music. But instead I got sucked into the 'professional' mindset with emulations. But there are tons of good free options

FYI, it's been a good couple of days for DS-friendly synths.

First, BabyAudio (who also make some other killer stuff useful for DS) just put out their first synth VST and it's $50 and sounds like a classic 80s analog synth.

Second, AudioKit made their King of FM synth app for iOS and (M1) Mac free. It samples DX7, DX7II, TX81z, and SY77 synths and has a bunch of other features.
