Buzza's Banjo Pups for the Saga

[@imthefishandshesmygills]

"The puppies need their own instrument" CUTEST THING EVER??????

[@sparklysprinkles5973]

The soundtrack for WolfQuest literally makes the game imo. Buzza is quite literally an artistic GENIUS for this and all his other work

[@Bitchy-girl]

FRRRRRR

[@asia1174]

He’s like the C148 of wolfquest

[@kelpstorm]

for real!! its one of the most distinctive video game tracks i know

[@pcc404]

yeah! i might get the music DLC sometime

[@katherinefugate_]

he’s also an amazing teacher - he was my choir director for 4 years! taught me everything i know

[@hostile-elf]

there's something about the banjo (characterizing the pups) fusing with the guitar in the hunt theme that makes it sound like a transition between a youngster into an adult, like this is the turning point for them. there's even something proud about the guitar and the banjo together, like the parent watching their child grow and take this big step in their life. ugh, why is it making me emotional!?

[@starbullets]

couldn't have said it better myself! the pride and excitement of raising pups really shines through in the music wonderfully!

[@Luna-ej4mi]

That's what I'm saying!

[@calyxkodiak]

Music and wolves are two of my autistic special interests so these music related videos from WQ are my Roman Empire

⁠hello fellow autistic human same interests here wolves are awesome music is amazing 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤🎉🎉😊😊😊😊

[@caramelcopcat]

Why does the idea of your puppies growing up beside you with their own tune make me tear up?!?! This game is so beautiful, it couldn’t be better

[@PoloWolf47]

I mean it could be better if the sky didn't go green but I get your point 😅

[@caramelcopcat]

@@PoloWolf47The game isn’t finished yet, its not perfect. but even as it is right now its the most realistic animal simulator ever, so thats awesome!

[@kokobopjammer2571]

[@caramelcopcat]

[@wolfyjaz]

2:05 “….I was not pleased with it… So I thought “well Buzza you’re just gonna have to learn how to play banjo.” So I got a banjo, and gave it a try.” Bro learned how to play a new instrument just for this occasion. My respect for Tim Buzza 📈📈📈

[@Luna-ej4mi]

Love it how it sounds like a transitional period between puphood and adulthood! The awkwardness of how yearlings learn how to wolf

[@buttonsanimations5921]

My dad passed away in 2022 and he loved playing and building guitars. You guys have no idea how much this reminded me of him

The transition from the Guitar to the Banjo once the puppies got confidence and got the hang of it is the cutest thing ever, nearly made me cry

[@FerralVideo]

"They're singing their own song now." That one hit me. Incredible. I love what y'all are doing here. I'm so excited to both see, and hear, the Saga. Also love the dedication. How I imagine the conversation going: Banjo? I don't know how to play a banjo.... ... Banjo? Buzza, you're just going to have to learn banjo.

[@TheStarWarriorHorse]

I have never seen an indie game developer put so much love, time, and effort into their project. One of countless reasons why I love WolfQuest so much! 😊💞

[@PoloWolf47]

Yup! And WolfQuest has ruined every other animal survival game for me because none of them can even come close to the depth and complexity that the Devs give WolfQuest

[@elorahollon5271]

It makes me so happy to follow along with these updates. The Wolf quest crew is filled with talent!

[@rebeccab719]

HUGE kudos to this guy. A banjo has got to be one of the hardest instruments to learn how to play - and certainly one of the hardest string instruments! And he did it to play this beautiful, new, fun music. You're awesome. Just straight up awesome.

[@willowbloomfield4402]

It's always confuses me why this game doesn't have all the awards etc. The dedication is incredible.

[@boyinblue.]

This game has the most amazing music development, I've never once gotten bored or annoyed with the soundtrack.

[@mitch-te5ss]

Hope Buzza knows how appreciated he is by the players, his music for the game has such a special sound and artistic quality that really shows his talent and care for his work and for the project. Especially the og theme, that will always give me nostalgia! Great work guys, love ya!

[@tfstarrynight]

tim buzza helps make wolfquest SO magical!! his passion is infectious

[@Bl4ck_m0ld]

cryinnngg the way theres so much meaning behind this music, especially about the growing kids since.. yknow thats the update, its so FRREAKING CUTEEEE

[@21chemH]

I've noticed that the player wolves have the Bark emote! Not the soft woof, but the alarm bark to warn the pack of danger. And when danger seems to lurk and approach, our mate never lets out even a little woof. I hope in the Saga update our mates will have some alert commands, maybe the slightly older subordinates too instead of running around fearfully or rushing in to fight whatever may threaten the pups lol.

[@cvsssper]

Omg. Nearly cried watching this. The work you guys have been doing as well as the amazing musical visions are so, so outstanding. The emotions translate so well in Buzza’s music. Thank you ❤

[@RedneckPrincessofTacticoolness]

This was such a cool idea. Kudos to everyone involved. I know the programmers and animators get a lot of the spotlight, but I’ve always held a deep sense of appreciation for the music in here, now even more so.

[@Draaagooon584]

6:18 I love how the elk trip and fall on beat to the music lol

This guy is amazing! The way he talks about the music and giving the adults and pups their own "instrument", as well as how he represents the wolves in different ways using the music is just so interesting!

[@wolvesforlife4981]

Hearing the melodies all put together immediately put a smile on my face!!! I love the fact that the parents still being the adults and the puppies bringing in the fun is present in the music. Maybe even changing the fight music and chill music to be a little different in the fall/winter (when you just yearlings and no puppies). Even adding a little bit of the hunting melody when at the rendezvous during the summer and the puppies are hunting toads and the new little rodents! That be epic as well!

[@nefelibataa_lillies986]

The game is growing like the puppies 😭 seeing this video and the evolution of the music reminds me of how the game itself is growing up too

[@grimm6176]

OH I LOVE IT SO MUCH!! The upgrade to Banjo was so good. I can't- The words have left me. I don't have words. That's so beautiful. Gosh, mixing the themes, making them more "grown-up" for babies- It's like watching them grow up with music and after playing this game for so many years, that is not an ending I ever thought I would see. They've always been "puppies" to me and now they'll be old enough to take care of themselves! The emotional attachments I will have with my pack now will appear superficial with the saga update. I already pay such close attention to them (I have a dedicated notebook divided into sections with all my wolves and their babies, with their babies' personalities and own stories being noted down under their names before getting their own section in the book when they grow up) but now watching them develop further into their personalities and watching them become more individual and eventually leave will CRUSH me like Shelter 2 did... MISTER BUZZA SIR YOU ARE SMACKING ME OVER THE HEAD WITH THIS MUSIC AND MAKING ME CRY! Shame on you!😭🐺

[@lacklusterluke5855]

Is this the bring your fan base to tears challenge?

[@ratpurr]

The thought of them growing up makes me feel emotional for all the little puppies I remember raising. Precious little things

[@DodieYT]

This entire process is amazing! Learning you incorporated new instruments with familiar themes! Absolutely loved hearing Tim Buzza's explanation for why he included the things he did. I'm no music expert, but this is definitely something to appreciate! Thanks for sharing this, WQ!

[@TheWarpig]

It's wonderful to see the depth of the artistry behind this game. Thank you for sharing. Every note there had purpose- and I feel that banjo represents the puppies perfectly! Great job Buzza.

[@AnnoyedWoof356]

The hunting with pups theme almost sounds ominous at points, I find it very fitting for this game, hunts are fun and high energy but also risky for the young pups looking forward to seeing how playable pups will work in the saga, will we still be able to play as our grown pups?

[@PoloWolf47]

I'm quite certain we'll still be able to play as the grown pups, it'd be a really stupid move to take that feature away cos it's a massive part of the gameplay for a lot of players lol

[@caitlinm9335]

I had to fight back tears this entire video, Tim Buzza is a musical genius

I don't think wolfquest would be the same without Tim Buzza's music, it really is amazing and adds wo kuch life to the game. Im not sure who played the music in the old game but if was amazing too!

[@finnianheart]

hey tim! not sure if you ever read the comments, but i want you to know that that slough creek music at 0:16 is probably what i would describe as "the music of my childhood". i grew up OBSESSED with wolfquest, with my favorite always being the slough creek update, and the amount of times i heard that music is innumerable. honestly just hearing it made me nostalgic. i'll never forget as a child always drowning 3 of my 4 wolf pups in the river so that i only had to work on protecting one for the whole game LOL. anyways, i'm 21 now so i really did grow up with that music in my ears, so, i guess what i'm really saying is, thank you! your music has had a far greater impact than you probably think :)

This might be my favorite devblog yet. I love seeing the progress of how everything looks but seeing the music tie it all together is beautiful. It’s like being able to control a movie.

Truly my favorite game♥️

[@iclynnx]

So excited! Making the soundtrack is an art form that I have much respect for - the fact that you take the time to perfect the feeling that comes with the music to fit the gameplay is admirable. Some animal simulator games just put in some intense music, some ambience, light music for light moments, and they're done. I get that not everyone has the budget for these things, but it makes a game so much more immersive and enjoyable!

[@plutofromspace]

I think it's amazingly cool how the WolfQuest team want to make sure their game is so deeply emotional when it comes to the tiniest little details!!! (If that makes sense.) Different music depending on the situation and what's happening with the wolves and their personalities and skills!! Good work guys!!!! Can't wait for the Saga release!!!!
