  • What kind of music accompanies being chased down by a hungry predator twice your size? Rain World implements an adaptive and subtle musical system for such occasions, the result being something not only stylistically unique but pragmatic as well.

    I see the music in rain world as the instincts or the slug cat. they are here to tell about danger even when it's not nice yet, but is not perfect

    I find the game play at 3:30 funny.
    Summons vulture with pickle.
    Watches it attempt to abduct lizard.
    Saves lizard after vulture attempts to leave with it.
    Lizard: You're my hero!
    The Monk moment of all time.

    Watching this made me realise that the static screens that occasionally obscure danger in the next section is softened by the fact the danger music usually precedes the danger itself. Good video!

    Surprised this video didn't get much attention despite the high quality. I can't believe I haven't seen this yet. Underrated video.

    4:22 Actually the exterior is one of 4 regions with no threat music
    the others are drainage system, shaded citadel, and subterranean.
    Nevermind you mention it later

    I feel like an interesting slugcat would be a mostly blind slugcat that has even deeper detail in their threat music, with each enemy having a specific threat value and a visual indicator on the screen as to what enemy it is. As you get further away from the enemy the music layer would quiet down, and when you get closer it would get louder. Could be fun.

    I got here while searching for the FP threat music and found it, but I also saw this video which I thought was a compilation of all threat music. I decided to look at the channel and went to the about page and realized this was for music this person makes and for videos analyzing game music. I decided to watch this video after that and I’m glad I did, this was a great video. Definitely underrated, but it is rain world so stuff about it usually is.

    This is like pikmin, especially pikmins 2, 3 and 4 were is dynamically changes, in pikmin 2 there is a threat(enemy near)theme were an enemy notices you then an actual battle them when you engage with the enemy, both in and out of caves, pikmin 3 also has a battle theme that adds to each area theme, and pikmin 4 is honestly crazy, with it adding instruments for every enemy, and those instruments are added for each area and cave themes, there is also a specific cave, called the Engulfed Castle that has separate music fade in over the normal cave theme as the specific enemy comes closer to dropping in... pikmin in general just has fantastic uses addaptive music

    3:55 I might just be confused but I don't think eating meat is possible as the monk.

    • @aNubbr
      @aNubbr Рік тому +5

      Monk eats the same thing as survivor, which includes meat like batflies and centipedes. You are probably getting it confused with the monk passage, where you can’t eat meat for 5 cycles to get it.
