it's been TOO LONG since deltarune chapter 4's release for there to be no jackenstein memes in this community

he never says the word "much" in his fight but i feel that "YOUR TAKING TOO MUCH" is still a pretty natural alteration of "YOUR TAKING TOO LONG"

nice time signature too! actually is it the first instance of 7/4 (or 7/8 depending on how you interpret it) in undertale/deltarune? can't think of anything else off the top of my head, all other weird time signatures i can think of are either 5/4 due to alphys or the second/third sanctuaries

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 week ago

raise up your bat is naturally the highlight of the chapter 3 soundtrack for me. the melody is great, both sets of lyrics are great, the lost girl leitmotif is incorporated beautifully as the chorus of the entire thing, oh and for some reason there's quite a few parts that sound like megalovania and justice from undertale yellow. one of the rare lyrical pieces in deltarune so far, and toby knocked it out of the park (though was anyone expecting otherwise?)

chapter 4 has an even stronger soundtrack in my opinion, with several top-tier songs, but i'd like to highlight the third sanctuary and its ridiculous yet fluid time signatures. the song as a whole has a really driving energy to it, and that 23/8 part. truly the peak of the song. there's like at least three different ways to feel the rhythm in that section and i can switch between all three of them on the fly. the part at 1:47 is also quite fun to follow along with. i like to count it as 12/8, 11/8, 10/8, 12/8, 11/8, 11/8, 11/8, 12/8. has a really nice push and pull feel to it.

to highlight some less popular songs: paradise, paradise has a nice melody, especially at 1:22. as does old wooden rafters, which is seriously low on views considering how good it is. and ever higher is just cheerful and fun, especially the section starting at 1:05.

can we also talk about how masterfully guardian uses leitmotifs from from now on? the main dark sanctuary leitmotif appears in a bunch of different forms. first the narrower, darker-sounding version associated with the titans, extended in a 3-3-3-3-2-2 rhythm. then the original, wider version in its original 3-3-2 rhythm, bringing in a big burst of hope for the "chorus" of the song. (also the guitar that introduces that section is so cool!) then at the end of the song, we pair up the wider intervals with the extended rhythm for a determined feel that's not fully hope, but also not fully despair. absolutely insane how the same leitmotif can be manipulated into taking on three very different tones in one cohesive song.

but that's not even the leitmotif that i find the coolest here. a motif more unique to from now on is transformed into something much different-sounding in guardian. these are the only two tracks i could identify this motif in, and it's kind of hard to even realize they're the same motif at first because the rhythm is quite different, and the two just don't sound anything alike in the context of their respective songs. truly an amazing final boss theme to end off the gameplay of the new chapters.

...man that's a lot of stuff i wrote. can you tell i like the new songs a lot? say what you will about toby TAKING TOO LONG, the final result is worth it!

 

happy deltarune a month ago day! the chapter 3 and 4 soundtrack, to the surprise of nobody, is full of awesome new music. let's talk about the songs we like the best! (or anything else related to the soundtrack if you want)

BERDLY?!?!?!

(think they'll still enthusiastically accept berdly's invitation in chapter 4 though, just to mess with him if nothing else)

 

(and major chapter 2 spoilers too i guess)

[transcription:

me when snowgrave music starts playing

at the start of chapter 3

in a pacifist run

(shocked ralsei sprite)]


for about 4 years, flashback (excerpt) was associated with only one context: the snowgrave hospital scene.

so when it's the first piece of music you hear in the post-demo content, in a context that has nothing to do with hospitals, deer, or murder...

yeah that gave me quite a bit of whiplash

the new chapters of deltarune are great. probably wasn't the best idea to play them both in the span of a single day but ah well

first post on lemmy in like ages (though i've been actively lurking). life's been busy

spring 2024 mini newsletter just dropped! saw a thing at the end of the interview with papyrus and thought it had great potential for a meme template. so have some undertale yellow. what fight are we talking about here? insert the same answer that martlet gave.

made this little remix, wanted to share with you guys!

have had this idea for quite a while now. wonder how many people will catch on to what i mean by that ;)

(also snuck in another little detail. not sure which one's easier to catch, but it was fun to put in regardless :) (and also allowed me to be a bit more lazy with things!))

composed in musescore. transcribed the original track in 0cc-famitracker, and made an edit using audacity.

happy halloween, c/kirby! haven't really had the time to contribute to this community lately (and, by the looks of it, neither has anyone else), but i wasn't going to pass up the perfect opportunity to share this wonderful piece of art!

really nice elfilis costume! reminds me of those pokemon halloween fanart pieces where unevolved pokemon dress up as their evolutions

trying out this cross-post feature with a little thing i did that's relevant to two different video game fandoms! cross-posted from: https://lemmy.world/post/6129824

i was thinking about how elfilin was shaped like a heart for some kind of valentine's day concept. and then... that turned into the following kirby/deltarune crossover thing. spoilers for kirby and the forgotten land!

oh, that's wonderful! thanks for the translation!

 

[image description (by me, not by the artist. may or may not capture the intended vibe):
(kirby)
"Come here Kirby!" (along with some japanese text that i can't read)
(kirby sees hands)
(kirby goes into hands)

found this adorable thing on deviantart. the artist also has a lot of other cute kirby stuff!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

accessible version (not an exact transcription):

Kirby, Bandee, and Elfilin are making their way through the Wondaria theme park.

Elfilin, confused: A water pipe?

Kirby thinks for a moment before coming up with an idea.

He puts his mouth on the water pipe, and fills up with water like a balloon.

He then waddles over to a nearby patch of mud, and sprays it all away.

Elfilin, happy: Neat idea, Kirby!

Kirby happily hums a "Thank you!"

The three of them move forward, with Kirby washing away more mud (and enemies, too). They hop up a newly cleaned (courtesy of Kirby) set of stairs.

As Kirby blasts away more enemies, Bandee sees some flowers that aren't doing too well.

Bandee: Looks like those flowers up ahead could use some water, too!

Kirby obliges. The flowers, once dull and wilted, now stand tall and vibrant.

Bandee, happy: Nice job!

Kirby happily hums a "Poyo!"

Kirby tries to climb up a ladder to the next area. Unfortunately, he's too large and heavy to do so.

He then tries -- and (of course) fails -- to jump up there without the ladder.

This makes him sad for a moment, but then he starts thinking...

...And he turns to face Bandee with a mischievious smile.

Bandee, worried, thinking: Uh-oh. What's he planning to do--

Bandee yelps as Kirby blasts him in the face with a stream of water.

Bandee, playfully upset: Kirby!

Kirby's still wearing that mischievious smile.

Bandee screams as he barely dodges another stream of water from Kirby.

Kirby starts spinning around in an attempt to hit Bandee, who lets out another scream -- much more playfully this time -- as he runs in a circle around Kirby.

Elfilin, a safe distance above all the action, watches the two with great amusement.

A few seconds pass. Kirby starts to run low on water... but as he loses water, he also gains speed!

Bandee, scared, thinking: Oh no! He's getting faster!

Bandee, determined, thinking: ...That just means I gotta get faster, too!

Bandee picks up the pace.

A few more seconds pass. Kirby still hasn't scored a second hit on Bandee.

Kirby, a bit tuckered out, pauses for a moment to catch his breath.

Bandee doesn't notice! He continues to run around Kirby...

...who, seizing the opportunity, blasts out all of his remaining water right as Bandee runs past him again!

Bandee yelps again as all the water hits him.

Kirby, happy: Poyo!

Kirby, smiling: ...I'm all outta water!

Elfilin, happy: That looked like fun!

Kirby, pleased: Yeah, it was!

Bandee, happy: Well, it was really fun, but...

Bandee, relieved: I'm just glad it's over now!

Elfilin looks at the two of them with a happy expression...

...but then he notices something.

Elfilin, happy: ...Hey, Kirby!

Elfilin, winking: I see another water pipe up ahead!

Bandee, playfully upset: Elfilin!

The end.

it's not an easy question for me!

i'll highlight two from undertale: first, it's pretty cool how waterfall is kind of a "leitmotif bridge" between ruins and another medium / core. too bad snowy isn't connected in the same way

more notably: the way don't give up uses the variation of the ruins leitmotif from an ending / undyne's neutral death theme is pretty amazing. with pretty much the exact same melody and rhythm, it manages to go from depressing and emotional to inspiring... and emotional.

for deltarune, i'll highlight two from chapter 1 and one from chapter 2. i like how field of hopes and dreams, as the very first "proper" area theme, heavily emphasizes the don't forget leitmotif, using it in a cheerful, upbeat way.

as for one of the very last songs in chapter one, the way chaos king just blasts you with the legend section C in a refreshing burst of determination and hope that contrasts nicely with the rest of the theme... yeah even in chapter 1, despite lacking the various improvements of chapter 2, toby fox absolutely nailed it with everything music-wise.

and as for chapter 2, the way berdly's theme is incorporated into attack of the killer queen is both surprisingly subtle (especially since it actually takes up more of the song than queen's own leitmotif(!)) and, just, pleasant to listen to. in particular, i love the way they changed around the rhythm for section B of berdly's theme.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

in my opinion:

titles that are just awesome: Two Planets Approach the Roche Limit, The Star Conquering Traveler, The Raging Lion Roars, The World to Win, Faded Dream of a Psychomeddler, Settling a Score ~ Atone for One's Misdeeds!, Supreme Ruler's Coronation - OVERLORD, A Full-Speed Farewell from the New World, probably a whole bunch more but i'm gonna end there

titles that inherit their awesomeness from something else: The Wastes Where Life Began, "Mistilteinn, Tree Crown without a Ruler"

titles that are nice in some other way: From Those Who Departed for Space, I'm a Hungry Pink Puffball!, Soaring Determination: No Night is Eternal

titles that i pay more attention to than the song they come from: Please Don't Inhale the Cinema Patrons

a nice title for a not-so-pleasant song: Eternal Echo of the Thrilling Tour-our-our

unofficial titles that i prefer over the official ones: Moonstruck Blossom [official: Fatal Blooms in Moonlight], Looming Darkness [Another Dimension], Fly! Kirby of the Stars [Fly, Kirby!], Swole Dedede Scuffle [Macho of Dedede]

unofficial title where although the official one is cooler, i'm way more used to the unofficial one: Under My Control [Welcome Your New Overlord]
