  • Weekly Game Music: Stray Sheep (Catherine)

    As mentioned earlier, I’ll be participating in the Global Game Jam 2012 next weekend, so I’ll be late on my updates next week. Soooooooo…since we won’t have a video next week, lets talk about Catherine, a tastefully sexy game. It’s a mature (as in, thoughtful) game about relationships, and cheating. Here’s Stray Sheep, by Shoji…

  • Weekly Game Music: A51 (SSX Blur)

    Happy Holidays, everyone, and Merry Christmas to the respective Christian followers. Here’s a little special remix called Super Mario’s Sleigh Ride. It’s an excellent live music arrangement that mashes together Sleigh Ride with various Super Mario World themes. Can you name all of them? Super Mario World‘s music is originally composed by Kondo Koji; Sleigh…
