And, yes, so is the music.

    I like how the game moves smoother, but the new sound effects sound a little out of place, in comparision.
    Yeah, but it’s still awesome.

  2. EmThree Says:

    There is an option to revert to original sounds/sprites I hear, I’m not sure if this is true.

    Are the graphic effects also a work-in-progress (such as transition effects)?

  4. Hyruleboy Says:

    THat option would be awesome.

    The physics look different here, too.
    I just played the PC version yesterday.
    I really like that we will be able to swap and interchange old/new graphics and music, though, DEFINITELY a plus.
    Can’t wait to see what other surprises lie in wait.

  6. D3stiny_Sm4sher Says:

    Oh, and these guys had an interview with GoNintendo and confirmed that, so yes, it does seem to be true, fortunately.

    I know this is a work in progress, though. There are a lot of details missing from the original here so I hope those get put back in. :)

    EmThree: I’ve heard this as well…there was an interview with a someone from Nicallis, don’t recall where I read the interview so I’m afraid I can’t tell you more other than that he said you’ll be able to toggle the oldschool/new music and graphics independently.

    I’m glad the music is work in progress.
    Because it was shit.
    That is all.

  9. EmThree Says:

    Honestly, I agree with Yigguth. ORGS>Midis.

    The music IS disapointing, but it’s most likely due to it being place-holders right now. I did research on the musician who is working on the game (Yann van der Cruyssen) and his music is not wholey midi based. I don’t understand why the main site has a midi piece because that could actually draw people away due to the quality of it but his non-midi music is very ambient and soothing. He’s the same guy who did a lot of music for Nifflas Stories and other games, so I very much doubt he’ll just push out Midi pieces for this game.
