Paul Robertson really brought out the best of this style of pixel art, without ever being stuck in the “retro” world.
It’s a kind of “love letter” to having friends over and playing beat ‘em ups on the couch with some snacks.ĪW: On top of that, I think the art is a big part of the longstanding appreciation of the game. ‘They didn’t need to go so hard’ goes all around there. Everybody involved really wanted it to be good so they put a lot of care and little unexpected details into it. As for the game itself, it’s really for people who love games. PB: I think so much of it comes from the feeling Bryan (Lee O’Malley) was able to tap into with his comics. The World: The Game achieved such adoration from players that has persisted over the years? Stage 1’s bittersweet music track, “Another Winter” plays. Revisiting a lot of these songs it’s funny how the tracks in major keys feel a bit melancholy and the ones in minor keys feel a bit energetic. In that song everything’s really held together by the drive of the drums. I had just had my wisdom tooth taken out, haha. In that song there’s some cute little call and response that breaks to a long yearning kind of melody. PB: I personally love the tension of 7th chords and 9th chords – stacks of complicated feelings – and it’s all over a lot of our music. As players listen, what is happening on a musical level to evoke those feelings? PSB: The track “Another Winter” perfectly captures the Scott Pilgrim world’s vibe of fun and melancholy. Feels like something we might work on today. LS: “Leave The Past Behind!” It’s dynamic and bittersweet, and has a lot of different energies in one song. I’ve been looping it and playing it back at half-speed recently. ĪW: I really like the chord progression in “Vegetable Rock.” Kinda grunge-y. PB: The “Subspace Highway” sound design sounds like it’d fit nicely on our latest album. the World: The Game do you feel best represents Anamanaguchi’s sound in 2021? The track “Subspace Highway” plays as Scott navigates a reality-bending path. LS: I think either “Another Winter” or “Just Like In The Movies,” those were both as nuanced and punky as our non-OST material back then! We’ve expanded a lot, but at that point I think most people considered us pretty splashy and fun like those levels. PB: Probably the theme song – we wound up releasing a lot of singles that summer – one of them was another song in the running for that!ĪW: I remember being super into “Rox 300” back then ~as a sound for us~. The World: The Game do you feel best represents Anamanaguchi’s sound in 2010? LS: I play heavies, so I go with Ramona and do lots of big hammer hits. James DeVito: I gotta stick with the bass brother, Scott Pilgrim. PB: I didn’t get a chance to play the game after the DLC came out, so I’m gonna play as Wallace when I can.Īry Warnaar: I’m really bad at this kinda game, so I’d honestly rather watch the rest of the band play… but Kim Pine.
PSB: Which playable character is the favorite of each Anamanaguchi member, and why?
