Summary
So we're back with Axiom Verge 2! Today Joshua walks us through this 2021 metroidvania prequel. As with Axiom Verge previous covered here, this game was developed, published, and composed by Thomas Happ. A lot of the similarities end there though as there's a heavy divergence from the heavy synythetic chiptunes with a whole new sound from Happ as Joshua supplies trip hop beats, melodic world music, and the beautiful vocals by Mayssa Karaa lending a bit of spirited life into the mix. A new direction in terms of game and music, it largely remains somehow perfectly aligned with the magic Happ composed before. [Around the 1:00:00 mark we experience a bit of microphone shenanigans for Laura and Chris. We tried to correct it in post to the best of our ability, but apologies for the wonkiness ahead of time!] Join the BBB Discord @ https://discord.gg/FEAYdbePt8 Follow us on TikTok @ beepsbopsandbeats Or on BlueSky @ BeepsBopsAndBeats Contact us @ [email protected] Click here for a YT Playlist of today's featured tracks. ------------ (00:01) - Omni (04:49) - (Talky Bits) (17:31) - Indra's Discovery (21:36) - (Talky Bits) (26:49) - Silver Pipes (feat.
