Welcome to "The Shed"

This morning, YouTube recommended me a a video by Cadence Hira about a melody used in a bunch of (mostly Japanese) video games. It's a fun watch, even if you don't know about music theory.
Anyway, the video starts out discussing the Secret of the Forest Theme from Chrono Trigger. I always loved that theme, and it got my brain going. I recently got a xylophone, could I use that to make an acoustic version of this? And, a challenge: record it in one session after work!

For a few hours of work (including arranging the parts, though thankfully VGLeadSheets gave me a good foundation), I'm pretty proud of it, but there are some things I'd change if I had more time. For one, I don't think saxophone works here very well. My playing was fine, but, especially without a low-end bass/rhythm section tying things together, it kinda sticks out too much. Also, this is the first time I've picked up my flute in a couple months, and I FORGOT how much air it takes! Waaaay more than a tenor sax! Flute isn't a priority for me right now, but I need to practice it more.
I do love the way the xylophone came through, though! I think it would sound really nice if I doubled the sax parts with xylo to give it a little more oopmh. And maybe layer in some more flute drones to fill things out a bit more too.
