I've always really liked this song so I decided to do a cover. I'm still pretty new with Famitracker, and this was my most difficult song to cover yet! It's finally done, and I really like how it turned out! I'm sure there are a lot of ways I could improve it though, so let me know what you think! Thanks!

Pretty good for the most part, I feel this fails in capturing the upbeat atmosphere the theme sets. Also, you used this in frame 01, in the pulse two column:
ROW 1C: C#3
ROW 1D:
ROW 1E: D-3
This should be:
ROW 1C: D-3
ROW 1D:
ROW 1E: D#3
Perhaps you should look at Threxx's FTM of the same song to get a general feel for how this kind of stuff should be done. It is attached in this post.

Don't give up, though. You definitely can do bigger and better stuff in the future. In fact, I encourage you to do more; it's a good learning experience for beginners and amateurs (such as myself).

I would suggest changing the pitches on the percussion. Right now, your kick drums are too high-pitched, and your cymbals are too low-pitched. I've edited the 1st frame of your cover to show you what I mean.

Thanks so much to both of you! Threxx's version is amazing, I definitely will work towards making covers like that. I felt like something was wrong with those notes at 1C and 1E so thank you very much for that! Drums and cymbals sound a lot better with your suggestion SmartKid! In case anyone wants to hear and updated version which addresses both of the problems, here it is!

This is better than it was. Keep at it; you'll get there, I know you will! It takes time, practice, patience, and a lot of creativity.
Like all good things do.

Sounds fantastic! I remember this level as if it were yesterday...
