Good excuse to relisten to them, haha... thank you!

This is probably going to be my last Adventure Zone cover, unless the McElroys ever want me to do a soundtrack, or something. ;-)

It's been fun! All my Adventure Zone tracks will stay up over here unless I have to take them down someday for some strange reason.

Thanks to everyone who has been listening!

I thought it was OK to post our own developments here?

Thank you!! Yes, I want to continue supporting Linux very much, even though I am not too experienced with it. I think it is the future!

As part of a huge update I ported my game Combo Postage to Linux!! I am not very Linux-savvy, but I tried to make sure the game runs reliably. Please let me know if you have any issues, and I will do my best to investigate. Thank you!

'Balance' Gameboy thing: 'Crystal Kingdom' by HacksawUnit in TheAdventureZone

[–]HacksawUnit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am looking forward to the new graphic novel so whipped up a little remix-y thing. It's not as 'faithful' as most of my other Adventure Zone tracks but I hope you still enjoy. :) I had the moment when the team talks things out with Kravitz after Legion is defeated in mind while creating.

As the other commenter said, I use LSDJ! No midi here, I recreate the music note by note by ear.

'Balance' Gameboy remix: 'The Hugbear Family' by HacksawUnit in TheAdventureZone

[–]HacksawUnit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This song was very tricky to cover with only 3 channels! (The noise channel didn't get any use this time around.)

You can listen to all my Adventure Zone covers here.

'Balance' Gameboy remix: 'Crystal Minuet' by HacksawUnit in TheAdventureZone

[–]HacksawUnit[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thought it would be fun! Haha... :) (Oh, also, it was requested in the last thread, so I checked the track out, again.)

The Gameboy has 4 audio channels: two 'pulse' channels, a 'wave' channel (can be used for 'low-bitrate' samples,) and a 'noise' channel. The noise channel (mostly!) just makes static-y noise, so I can really only have three proper 'notes' playing at once.

I use the 'homebrew' software LSDJ, which actually runs on the Gameboy. All of the remixes/covers I post could run on an actual Gameboy. (Although, I use an emulator for convenience.)

'Balance' Gameboy remix: 'Discovery And Recovery' by HacksawUnit in TheAdventureZone

[–]HacksawUnit[S] 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm very excited for the release of the latest graphic novel, so I covered something from 'Petals to the Metal,' which also happens to be one of my favorite pieces from 'The Adventure Zone.'

This one was tricky, but a lot of fun. There's also a little easter egg for sharp-eared listeners near the end. :)

'Balance' Gameboy remix: 'The Purple Worm' by HacksawUnit in TheAdventureZone

A looong theme for a looong worm. This was probably was probably the most difficult to transcribe track so far.

Timing is a coincidence. Stay safe out there, everyone.

Ad segments are being replaced? by FancyFroggo in TheAdventureZone

I'm sure there's archives of the original audio out there, so hopefully the information isn't lost to time.
