Didn’t expect to see this as a collab. Not super familiar with the franchise despite its popularity, though my sister was a fan of island adventure.

This was honestly a great opportunity for smaller creators to make themselves known on the creative scene! Even if I’m fashionably late to review this.

This one is the first one that actually tells a coherent story. And it’s probably the catalyst for some juicy lore too especially with act V.

avoid the barf and the germans
never would I have thought I would read such a sentence

Your hitbox is way too big and mobile controls don't really work that well. But playing as a crate dodging barf and germans is the best thing I've heard all year.

Got stuck on level 15 :(

3 stars for 3star

In seriousness, 3 stars is what I would rate this as, mainly because of the creative concept, however it is held back by the soundtrack and lackluster graphics that remind me of FNAF world. I had a fun time with this though, good work despite its short length.

Best parts are definitely 1:43 and the outro. That chord progression is SO JUICY and I don’t know why. Rest of the song is fine but those parts tug at the heartstrings somehow.

Welp, this one completely flew under my radar. Been so busy lately lol.

I’m not sure I could think of a better fit for this image. Though I’m usually one to complain about your choir sounds I think the way they’re used here make a lot of sense. I also kiiiinda figured out why I disliked them for so long: there’s no actual syllables! They’re just going ooh or ahhhh the whole time which sounds really unnatural in some of your previous works.

But here I feel like that aspect is masked really well, unlike in autumn wind. Like it just feels like it fits perfectly as is somehow. Sure, an intense staccato “deh, fah, see” repeating minor chord tonic (every 3 eighths, or whatever you call them in your amazing perfect crotchets and fucking quavers) in the choir in the intro would’ve really set the mood (just using that as an example), but it works as is. I still think you should get syllable support though. It would help make it sound so much more natural in general, even if the more “traditional” syllables are just fine here.

I LOVE the intro. The very tender, light piano gives way to an intense dark lord aesthetic that just works perfectly. Big fan of the transition out of it at 1:38 as well. Huge fan of the section following, but it feels like you were starting to get somewhere and then the piece just abruptly ends. A new idea is introduced, and then that’s it. An extension including the legendary battle of Tibbles the Untamed versus Pookie the Feral Hound for overlordship over the universe would’ve been really cool to see. 0:35 is SO JUICY I love chromaticisms. Maybe 1:06 to the end of that section can get a little repetitive. Feels like you put repeat bars and wrote repeat 4x lol with the strings crescendoing every measure like that. But that’s a minor issue tbh. I don’t hear you use bassoon much so that was really nice to hear. Honestly this piece is so good. One of my favorites from you this year to be honest.

This certainly has a different vibe than your earlier collab. Feels like crispy has a lot more influence which is something I appreciate. I also appreciate how you didn’t quantize the piano solo as it makes it feel more natural. Although I do gotta say the soft piano mixing does stick out a bit compared to the DnB high frequency chaotic stuff coming from the other sections.

Sol made the synth at the outro? Damn. That’s one of my favorite sections and I didn’t realize he made it.

Ol teddy is there as always. Gotta have him show up at least once in your music library. Could’ve included the sample where he got shot (is there one?) for more dramatic effect. He kept talking after he got shot by the way. Interesting story behind that one lmao

Great job as always!

This is really cool! Great recreation. Maybe too much of one, feels like you could’ve just put the original through a pixel filter that’s how accurate it is. But maybe some stylistic changes would’ve been nice too. The static on the TV and the clouds are a good start.

Edit: nooo don’t “fix” them they’re my favorite part! I was saying lean into the changes more, not less!

Eatable

(But with a rating above 2 stars this time)

This is actually a really unique take on the classic sunset. The sun looks like a bit like an amoeba though but I like the tree
