Banjo Kazooie Gruntch stole Christmas Walkthrough

[@NervousSkiMask]

The dialog is so awesome! How nostalgic. You got down their personality so perfect! 😭🤣

[@Kurko_Games]

I write my dialogues, but a guy named Bynine is the one who adapts and modifies it to fit perfectly into the BK universe. He is the real genius on this

[@GarrisonGoldberg]

A boulder fell from above and smashed the Gruntch into the floor, and Banjo and Kazooie lived forevermore!

[@joseluistrejo1859]

I love how you combined both BK and BT into one single mod! Amazing job Mark Kurko!

[@Kurko_Games]

None of that would have been possible without the help of Wedarobi (Hacking wizard)

[@Nakia11798]

I noticed a little LOZ in there as well. Not sure which title, but I recognized the music.

40:00: That's gotta be the most cursed image of Gruntilda I've ever seen. D:

[@captainblubber]

That Yooka-Laylee poster is such a nice touch.

[@FairlyGeeky]

Loved this mod. A highlight of my Christmas for sure. Thank you again!

[@Swooplind]

Putting boggy's kids over the Jinjos was a really cool idea, but I can't help but wonder what the 4th and 5th kid would be called. We got Soggy, Moggy, and Groggy. Maybe Joggy and Foggy? lol. Regardless this is yet another fantastic mod!

[@Kurko_Games]

Not bad names honestly, I approve it!

[@gise230207]

without watching this video to avoiding spoiler I thought it was a silly christmas level with the 10 jiggy/tokens: easy peasy! . How wrong I was!!! that second part was amazing , I really felt the Banjo Kazooie's game spirit in that Grunch's castle ♥ an honor to play this mod . Thank you very much 🎉🎉 and happy new year to everyone.

[@Kurko_Games]

Glad you enjoied it, and happy new year!!

[@SpongicX]

Nice mod, I think it would be funny to make a Christmas Carol inspired mod, where Grunty is Scrooge, and the ghosts and other characters are played by other Banjo or Rare characters. Banjo and Kazooie are somehow dragged into Grunty's hauntings, and are required to complete tasks to help progress the story. Unlike Scrooge, Grunty doesn't learn a lesson or change in the end, so the bear and bird have to kick her butt, and prevent a grim future. There could be three levels to reflect the past, present, and future. Character suggestions -Bottles as Bob Cratchit -One of Bottles's sons as Tiny Tim -Mingella as Marley -Brentilda as the Past Ghost -Devil Bottles or Mumbo as the future ghost. -Klungo as the Present Ghost

[@LimeTH2]

Maybe Banjo and Kazooie are the narrators, ala Gonzo and Rizzo from Muppet Christmas Carol. They're following Grunty and the Ghosts, trying to keep the story going as it should. When it doesn't pan out and Grunty learns nothing, they say screw it and kick her butt.

[@Kurko_Games]

Believe it or not I was mulling over the idea of Christmas carol mod for next year, but we'll see. To make a story like this I should start development at the latest in August, and I have other projects in mind for now.

[@SpongicX]

@@Kurko_Games sweet

[@ericscott4035]

I know how Ebenezer Scrooge really feels like when he sees this mod. You should include him into your mod. He should tell Gruntilda that Halloween is a humbug and Christmas is the best. It would be pretty funny.

[@jacejunk]

Very great work! I am constantly impressed with the efforts displayed on this channel - both technically and creatively. Makes me want to look into modding. In this game, I particularly liked the foreshadowing of seeing the sewer pipe leaving Loggo, the red X clue in the photo of where to ground pound on top of the barrels, the appearance of the token on top of Loggo, being bewildered when the token was no longer in the W.C., then discovering it in the sewer pipe. Nice gameplay design across several areas, and engaging multiple mechanics - including the misdirection of token location which may even surprise experienced players. Also, nice crossover art with Gruntilda holding Majora's Mask.

[@IceSlushi]

I really like how well the space is used in this mod. Great stuff, Merry Christmas.

[@Mike14264]

You can always count on Kurko for those sweet references to N64 games! And some of these puzzles in the Gruntch Lair are pretty clever and intricate!

[@Kurko_Games]

Thanks so much!

[@frostare]

2:52 Hey,I have that DK64 poster too! =P I loooved this mod! This vid deserves way more views! Thanks for sharing!

[@mitchphelan1235]

Man these are so impressive. Not just the level design and tapping into the nostalgia and staying true to the original but the creative elements you add to it, like the Christmas story montage. Really cool stuff

[@xdudeawesome2769]

Wow! I might try out this mod someday...

[@ashleyblack7419]

what a great mod, you don't see maps of this quality every day :O usually you see a lot of mediocre mapping with lacking objectives.

[@Kurko_Games]

Thanks!

[@ericscott4035]

Seeing Grunty in bed is pretty cute, but it feels like you’re having a laugh when you see it. Boy, Gruntilda always gets outsmarted by Banjo and Kazooie so many times in every mod. It’s just no wonder that she was a dumb witch. My tip is: the witch has the magic powers and the bear and bird have the brains.😂🤣

[@grantpodue39]

kafei body, link's head and his hat turned red, clever very clever

[@Kurko_Games]

Good eye my friend, but not exactly like that. I used Link's 3D model from Triforce Heroes (some kind of SNES 3D version I found, never played this game) and optimized it to run on n64. I made the clothes using different textures of Kafei's clothes and added the brown vest. The textures of the head and hair are from Mido, from OOT ;) And I modified hat's texture to make it red

@LORD SHADOW La verdad es que no están mal. Sin embargo no es posible hacer algo así con las herramientas actuales, y tengo un montón de ideas propias para otros proyectos que no tengo tiempo de hacer.

I was meaning to comment on this video for a while, but I got sidetracked with other matters.Anyway, I like the custom bits of coding in this, such as the elf tracking Banjo's movements with his head and the stealth section What I adore the most is how you reimagined Gruntilda's Lair! While I'll always be a fan of the original, yours actually feels like a home for the rhyming witch herself! Plus, the remix of her lair's theme is wonderfully zany! Well done!

Yes, Backpack development stopped in 2017. In my mods I often use little tricks to simulate things that don't seem possible in Backpack, but are (Jiggies of time was made entirely with it). However now there is a programmer helping me with my latest projects and using code he is achieving things that were not possible before

I was surprised, that the game didnt finish after the village, that there is a whole grunty's lair. There are so many details everywhere.
