21 - "Melancholy"

Here is the 21st composed song for Keytastrophe, and probably one of my best. I mixed a lot of countermelodies together towards the end to give the song a very melodic and soothing feeling, yet slightly cheerful at the same time.

I haven't decided where I'm going to use it yet, but it will most likely be for the shop and switch palaces, since it seems to suit them the most.

An even further musical emphasis...

After spending over two hours to rip this background from Bubsy II, I discovered that it fits perfectly with any of my switch palace/bonus room stages. It's not the ENTIRE background, as that would take up at least 4 ExGFX files, but it is a nice chunk of it.

It will serve it's purpose very well.

The Exodome has been breached!

...which means there is merely one level left after this one: the third castle. Of course, that also means that there are a couple secret levels, plus the shop, plus a couple other goodies .. eh, we're still a bit away from a demo I guess.

Anyway, here is a pic of the Staccato Exodome, which, for the moment, has no enemies.

The yellow/green/blue blocks will be for something special, but the only way to find out what for is to play the demo, as I won't reveal anything about them. The misaligned, darker block directly below Mario is a Thwomp, but it, too, will serve a special purpose. A lot of things you wouldn't expect will be very interactive in this level.

That's all for now.
