Club Penguin Music #7 - Pufflescape

[@Cutiejea1]

The unused main menu song just screams "medieval party"

[@ChrisHendricks]

Yeah, that'd work too. Like, just before a jousting competition or something.

[@mauriciobarrientos9633]

It sounds a mission for Shadow Guy and Gamma Gal to me xD

[@HalfHydra]

The Rollerscape Main Menu song sounds like it belongs in the medieval party or pirate party...I love it so much. Too bad it didn't ever get re purposed like the 5th edition of the box dimension.

[@apples2go1]

wait what was the 5th version of the box dimension music re-purposed into? :0

Hearing it in high quality makes you hear sounds you couldn't hear in the game

[@TiStardust]

I remember Pufflescape was a big deal at the time of it's release. It was one of the bigger minigame additions since Puffle Launch! I was very excited for it. Puffle Launch was cool, especially with it getting it's own iOS version, but getting something that sort of displayed the opposite of the high-octane action of Puffle Launch, in the same location no less, was exciting!

[@thomashines100]

THANKFUL FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE DONE FOR THE CLUB PENGUIN COMMUNITY

[@KingMondoWWM]

Very nice thing to say. I feel the same, my friend.

[@ollie2111]

Definitely succeeded in that positive atmosphere. Club Penguin was the main highlight to my depressing childhood

[@sergioandresbenitezhernand2542]

this is a minimalistic masterpiece

[@MyPing0]

The fact that you mentioned Avatar in here just made my day. Always humbling to know someone else watched and took inspiration from it. Edit: CP and Avatar were the two biggest thing I grew up on as a kid :D

[@ChrisHendricks]

Avatar: The Last Airbender remains my favorite animated series to this day. :)

[@nicolasbecerratrigo9293]

You know, I was 8 when I first listened to this theme, and I remember this song in particular because I was so interested in it for the feeling it gave me, everytime I played pufflescape I felt lost and trying to get out of somewhere, your music was so powerfull that made me feel that way, and I really liked it. Even today I still take inspiration of your work, and that song has a place in my mind for sure, thanks (and sorry if my english its not so good, I speak spanish)

[@Funnybirdproductions]

I really like the music that you make

[@progamingbros4371]

ICE FISHING! ICE FISHING! IIIIIIIIIICE FISHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIING!

[@Emeraldakafunnygamerguy]

That's an actual song (Paris St Germain, I think), it wasn't composed by the Club Penguin team. The DS version was though!

[@DudeTheNinja]

Whilst listening to the sped-up 'time trials' theme, I imagined a separate mode of Pufflescape more focusing on the puffle's raw movement in a race-like platformer mode rather than the physics puzzles. Oh yeah, also I do like the sneaky, cold theme of this, but also it has that cutesy feel rather than the more 'cool' EPF/PSA mysterious music, because it's about a Puffle exploring underground caves, bounding around in a ball having the time of their life, than an agent sneaking into a well-known villain's headquarters.

[@godsguitar7]

This was a recent update from CP I enjoyed, the game was fun and not too hard. The music fit it well, another great episode.

[@djmax09552]

new hq songs?

[@mew11two]

I used to play this minigame all the time because it gave you loads of coins (and was pretty fun).

[@DoctorTex]

Most Club Penguin songs are warm and happy, but this one is mysterious and cold. So the only song that accurately represents Antarctica.

[@Emeraldakafunnygamerguy]

And it's not even on the surface. It's underground. On an island confirmed to be made not of snow on rock but purely of ice according to the comics.

[@lizzyserf]

I love this so much. Pufflescape was my favorite minigame back when the site was up.

[@ollie2111]

Oh goodness the faster one would always stress me out but I remember I once managed to clear both the regular and time trial levels 100% :) that was one of my favorite minigames. One that had so much content and that I could never get far in was Puffle Launch though!

[@dusty_bar_cat]

lmao i remember playing this game, it was my favorite game on cp, and sometimes my mom would ask me to play a different game so she didn't have to listen to that pufflescape song on repeat haha sorry mom

[@ChrisHendricks]

Send your mom my apologies as well. :)

[@VideoDomStar]

the unused pufflescape theme sounds a lot like a Festival of Flight/ Penguin Play Awards potential style track. Good video!

[@RobbieSpofford]

This is awesome! I remember being one of the few that beta tested Rollerscape through the separate website. It was lots of fun and one of my most exciting memories of Club Penguin, as I got to see the game from early beta through many changes (and bugs haha) to the final product in CP. I'm glad you stuck with the Cold, Mysterious feel through the entire game, as that's what I remember the most! It'd remind me of having fun playing hide n' seek outside in the snow at night, or "braving the winter storm" kind-of-thing. It was one of the few games that gave me a sneaky, mischievous feel similar to some PSA and EPF missions. Speaking of those... Could you do a video on the EPF Command Room music, please? (or the "old" PSA mission intro music?) Warm Hugs and Waddle On! :)

[@justinmzee]

Robbie Spofford as someone who also played that special beta, where you had to access the secret website through certain news articles on the blog, I completely agree. Absolutely one of my favorite memories with the game, probably on of my favorite video games memories of all time.

[@carsonkacirek4612]

Card jitsu snow's beta was more memorable for me, but dang testing this, the fishing game- Fluffy's adventure, or something? and snow was so fun

[@davibergamin5943]

Rollerscape was the only game I tested in the separeted site

[@arachneplayz]

I was and still am a huge fan of Pufflescape and its mysterious & cold music. Thanks for giving it recognition and sharing how it was made with unique and metallic instruments! Sending warm hugs your way❄️😀

[@ollie2111]

Man I love this song. It really gave that cave puzzle adventure feeling when playing the game! I'm getting chills just listening to it

[@sam.skeates]

This was one of my favorite games on club penguin!

[@thetacticalmile2296]

I would love a more bts videos. I would also be intrigued to see a founders take on working with Disney. Financially of course being bought by Disney is amazing, but I often wondered how you guys felt once Club Penguin began to transform (mostly member exclusive stuff, disney themed events, maybe changes in who made creative decisions)

[@ChrisHendricks]

I left in 2010, and most of those changes happened after the fact, so I don't know how much insight I can give there. However, if I had a time machine, and could do it over again, I wouldn't have left when I did.

[@thetacticalmile2296]

@@ChrisHendricks Did you leave out of frustration with how it was being handled? Or were you just kinda burnt on it at the time? Also, why do you say you'd go back in time and change it? Have always wondered about the inner workings of CP for a loooong time. Especially sad when they shut it down... Always felt that was too extreme. How much does it cost disney to leave a couple servers up and not really update it? (That last part is rhetorical by the way)

[@ChrisHendricks]

The reason I left is complicated. But a large part of it was that I wanted to attempt going into business for myself, and there were a few things that made me decide that it was the right time to try.

[@polarition]

I wasn't a big fan of the minigame but this was one of my favorite songs from Club Penguin. It's really weird though hearing the thought process that went behind some of the songs I heard as a child and being able to understand now that the cold feeling I had when playing the minigame was intended.

[@olliever817]

i remember when this game came out i just sat and listened to the music instead of actually playing the game

Pufflescape was one of my absolute favorite minigames as a kid, right next to Puffle Launch. I remember having this music on for so long while playing.

[@Pejelo]

Yes. The unreleased theme really sounds heroic. Tell me if you composed some themes un 2012, for Operation Blackout and Holiday... The Dock theme of this party. You did?

[@Pejelo]

@Azurethewolf168 Damn that fella cooked masterpieces.

[@no64256]

I like listening about the decisions for trying to create a specific mood. I love thinking and talking about using the gameplay and environment to create a certain feeling in the player; but I never studied music, so hearing the thought process behind this is pretty cool

[@flutterfan2625]

this song actually unnerved me alot as a kid, i remember i never played the game much compared to puffle launch because of it, yet after all this time i think its stuck with me the longest out of almost every other club penguin song because of that

[@notworpp]

beta.clubpenguin.com was literally my coin farm, also the home to rollerscape!

[@6sdeimos]

i remember the pufflescape theme being particularly resonant when i was younger. super cool process to see!

Pufflescape was one of my favourite minigames when I was younger. I would play it all the time even though I wasn't a member and only played the first pack of levels.

[@tomascalvo2285]

I remember playing this at my friend's house when I was 6. The melody never left my head

[@ohrange9943]

THE GAME HAS THE BEST MUSIC! MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITES!!

[@sasukcool8357]

if to be honest if i was the one who was making main theme for Pufflescape, i would end up making something similar to "Sacred Fireflies, Forgotten in Dreams", i would have made song more faster and upbeat, but with a cold and empty feeling, i would also used jingle bells in the song, since it will give out a snowy feeling to the song

[@oogabooba1812]

The unused rollerscape main menu music sounds like something from Super Mario Galaxy! I love it!

[@ChrisHendricks]

It was probably a bit inspired by that, as I was playing a lot of Mario Galaxy at the time.

[@Dialga22239]

Wow, I didn't notice the Synth Strings before, hahaha. When I hear the Xylophone, I get Pokémon and Super Mystery Dungeon Hype again xD Also the Main Menu Theme... it actually sounds like a unused Route of Pokémon X/Y ;P What was the Synth Strings Instrument called in Goliath? I'm searching these Strings for the 80's Atmosphere ;P

[@ChrisHendricks]

The strings are meant to hide in the background. :) I think the instrument was from the Symphonic Orchestra package.

[@Dialga22239]

Ahh xD I will take a research on the Instruments. I didn't completed to go through the Colossus (aka the Repack and Kontakt 5 Version of Goliath) Library yet ;P

I came back to this video because I remembered that I played the Rollerscape beta test. If I remember correctly, the puffle and most of the environment and objects were all simple outline drawings, and the music wasn't implemented yet. I still had fun though, and I was excited when the final game released in CP. Great work on this song, Chris. You really captured the feel of this game.

The song also makes me think of Fireboy and Watergirl.

[@Samorutt1324]
