This is really fun and fits the theme perfectly. I had never heard of strudel.cc and I find your use of it completely fascinating and impressive. Nice! Great job!

Developer

Thanks! Glad you liked it!

One of the most personal and unique takes I have listened for now in the jam while at the same time staying fully credible and fitting tightly to the game and area. Playful, fresh and full of life. Loving the elephant-trombone and giraffe-marimba dialogue, as well as the usage of percussion sounds and the great flow achieved through pauses and silences all through the piece. Wonderful work. A personal thank you as well for making me discover the world of Strudel. The fact this piece is the product of 70 lines of code is just mind-blowing.

70 lines + Strudel itself! Thank you so much for this heartfelt comment, kind one!

If you told me this was on the original soundtrack I'd believe you.

Developer

Thank you! Maybe it was left out for being too wobbly!

Those mammals do be chilling. Cute and playful! Perfect for a game like animal crossing. Gives "what hijinks will they encounter" vibes to me with how light-hearted this track is. Amazing work c:

Developer

Thankyouverymuch!

I loved the sections between instruments that were like a call and response, a cool groovy piece :)

Developer

Thank you very much!

 I find myself enjoying this call-response structure in other pieces also, so i translated the concept in 'animal speak'.

Whenever I listen to this track I always think some Island character telling you a cute joke or something lol! Big fan of the jazz standup bass. Love the cute sounds!

Developer(+1)

Thank you, that's really what I was going for!

Submitted(+1)

So funny and cute! The instruments, melody, rhythm, everything is so right! Good job!

Developer

Grazie Federico, troppo buono!

Nice one ! That trumpet is sounding like fire to me, congrats - and the rest of the mix is nice and balanced, catchy and smooth, with funny transitions and resolutions, sounds like AC to me.

Developer

Thanks a lot! You're very kind!

Simple and chill vibes, and i really like that brass sound ! Good job :) 

Developer

Thanks! Yep, it's a good soundfont. Baked-in instruments are nice enough, sometimes!

Wow. Great work! Such a nice cute sounding track.

Developer(+1)

Many thanks! Glad you liked it!

Pfff how you do it everytime it kills me. The worst part, is that it's actually one of the best things I've heard the whole jam. Just get those 5 stars you rascal!

Developer(+1)

Thanks Kev! It was harder and trickier this time!

This is such a cute track ^^ I just can't get over the image x.x I love how the xylophone and brass (actually I'm curious what vst that is) are almost having a conversation like the animals as friends, the call and response is so good!! Makes me wonder what they're up to 👀 So much variation even within the same pallete and the different sections are so nice--great rhythm variation with the guitar in the second half. Feels like there's a lot of great quirks you do well with the almost tropica/bossa style. Nice touch with whistle and cowbell as a break too. Very much feels like nintendo song specific to the concept, awesome work!

Developer(+1)

Thank you very much for this wonderful feedback! I have tried to keep the stuff as fun and chill as possible :)

No VST were used or harmed, only basic soundfonts! The built-in ones that you can find in Strudel. (The sea effect is only brown noise + adsr + panning).
