Brian Schmidt - PA178

How do you do justice describing Brian Schmidt‘s contribution to gaming? His impact on the global trajectory of games has been immense. There’s no doubt in our minds that Brian is one of the most important figures in videogame history, and we couldn’t be more honored to have him joining us on the show. This next paragraph is only a portion of what Brian has been up to for the last 35 years or…

Immortal Cain:

An incredibly climactic song for the final boss of the game. Possibly the best final boss theme I've ever heard.

SATURDAY

God I can barely even remember now, we saw SO much good stuff

Dom Palombi’s Game Night was fun, a good funky style with an absolutely star-studded lineup on stage (insaneintherain, Skatune Network, the Super Soul Bros…!). Their take on To Zanarkand was genuinely unique and it made me cry, I loved it

Super MadNES was just facemeltingly great, SO high energy, I love that they introduced every single non-percussion member of the band as being on leads (lead guitar, lead guitar, lead keytar, no one isn’t leads, this is hilarious and I love it). Excellent lineup from them, I especially loved their Castlevania stuff, but probably the best bit was a one-two Final Fantasy combo where they hard-cut from Exdeath (FF5) to Those Who Fight Further (FF7) without a clutch and they just completely nailed it, absolutely perfect… I kind of feel like this may be the closest I ever get to seeing The Black Mages live

the finale of the weekend was Metroid Metal, and since the theme of the con was Metroid Prime, they basically stuck entirely to MP1 (only exceptions were Torvus Bog from MP2 and the main theme to MP3), which I’m perfectly fine with. They didn’t talk much, they mostly just played. Tallon Overworld, Phendrana Drifts, Space Pirate Encounter (talk about an adrenaline jolt, that song is SO intense), Wrecked Ship (with 88Bit on the keys, phenomenal), a great boss medley (including Hive Totem, one of my faves), and their finale was the Prime 1 title theme, which they absolutely slayed

I’m losing the ability to even describe these folks, it was just an amazing and overwhelming experience

I love MAGFest so much and I can’t wait for next year’s

maybe later I’ll gush about the incredible cosplay that was all over the con, but I’ve been doing this for an hour already

hope you enjoyed me just kind of splattering a bunch of names and the words “awesome/incredible/phenomenal” all over the page here!

Home from MAGFest!

Gonna ramble for a while about MAGFest 2024, which was this past weekend! Feel free to mute the tag #MAGFest2024 if you don’t wanna see it.

I’m gonna go stream of consciousness so it probably won’t be too organized and I’m sure I’ll get some of the details wrong, so if you were there too and you’re like “hey, X didn’t play that song, Y did,” well, my bad

Anyway! Brought my bf along, and I’m wild about VGM and he knows nothing about it, but he wanted to come because he wanted to see me being excited and passionate about something and he’s just a real sweetie that way, is it any wonder why I love him? Before we went, I made sure that he at least knew what Megalovania sounds like, since it’s replaced One Winged Angel as the de facto “if you don’t have a specific theme this conflicts with, there’s a good chance you’re gonna end your set with this” song (and I’m here for it, I fucking love Megalovania, I don’t care if people think it’s overplayed, it’s super dope). We heard it 3.5 times over the weekend (one time was when Don Palombi’s Game Night played sans. but they mixed in some MV, so that’s the 0.5).

And yes, we did refer to our hotel room as the MAGFest Fag Nest 🏳️‍🌈

Got to work on a doodle celebrating s’mores recently! I’ve really wanted to do a 3D stop-motion(ish) project for awhile, so I was glad I was able to get this to work! You can check out the full slideshow [here!]

Many many thanks to Aivi and Surasshu who composed the music! As well as the musicians Jeff Ball, Stemage, and Preston Pofahl. They nailed the cozy vibe on the first go! 💕

Also, I had a lot of fun using a pasta machine to beat up the clay, and I would recommend it as a relaxing activity.

I hope everyone can enjoy some s’mores and the outdoors if you get a chance! 🍂🍫

hi friends! my moody soundtrack for the game "cryptmaster" is releasing alongside the game on may 9th! i drew inspiration from my childhood years playing AD&D in the basement of a game shop, while giallo horror movies played on a CRT in the background.

i'm extremely excited for how both the game and the soundtrack came out, it was super fun and i had a blast working together with stemage on guitar and catton arthur on bass. thank you so much for your support!

Super Catboy released TODAY! And I made a handful of tunes for the game, including this one. "Turn Up The Heat", featuring Stemage on guitar!

Check out Super Catboy on steam. It's an action platformer with incredibly satisfying movement and attacks.

I used to know jeffball on IRC, havent heard from him in years. His name is above STEMAGE of metroid metal fame in that pic. He did maybe 80% of the mfdoom chiptune cover I wanted to make because I didnt know how to sequence back then. He didnt give me any steps or anything either; he just did it. Sequencing is a habit that takes awhile to learn tho, its not exactly something u want to explain step by step to someone else I figure?
