For #VGMWednesday I have this track from 1080⁰ Avalanche, one of my favorites as a kid. Even though there are only maybe 10 levels my neighbor and I would play for hours.

I have been searching on and off for years for the band credited for this and two other songs in the game, Squidd, but it seems to have been done entirely in house because I can't find anything about them outside the context of the game.

Lovely little trip down memory lane reading Julian’s recollections of making “Rogue Leader" in the recent Star Wars issue of Retro Gamer :)

Definitely the most intense period of work I've ever done, but also the most rewarding. I liked that he talked about the fallout that happened between us and lucasarts when the prototype was shown at the Spaceworld Dolphin/Gamecube reveal (only the LucasArts CEO knew about it due to the secrecy, and it blindsided staff at LucasArts)..

and how Nintendo having to downclock flipper (the GPU) 2-3 months before we had to go gold made things extra spicy for us to claw back the perf :)

still more stories that I hope get (officially) recounted someday. A crazy time.

Also, nice to have the Bespin level discussed - I was only recently reminded of the bursting hot air balloon physics I wrote for that.. that was fun.. :)

Been playing a bit of Pure Pool on Switch this week as sometimes I just don't have it in me to play anything more involved.
