Ristar Music Is AWESOME!!!

Ristar is such an underrated gem of a game. I wanted to show off some of the tracks in the game and how good they are for the themes of the levels they are in. Enjoy me geeking out for eleven minutes XD

Only a shooting Ristar can break the mold of obscurity with an amazing soundtrack!

[@gradient5319]

Hmmmm

[@kingcoveryepic]

Hmmmm!!!

[@SuperChaosControl]

I'm a simple person, I see Ristar, and I click. 😊

[@NynyLemon123]

yes indeed

[@Aruidaiohligma]

Indubitably.

[@MannysDomain]

yee

[@OreVYuss]

so do i!

[@GenesisSonicN64Mario]

Same

[@superj1010]

Such an underrated game. I used to spend all my free time on these retro games on our Sega Genesis.

[@ChilliusVGM]

WE NEED A NEW RISTAR GAME

[@Prostaceus56]

Yes This Game Is Too Good ;D

[@victorandresbastidatorres2313]

ristar remake or something. i would lika an ristar 2.5D game style.

[@victorandresbastidatorres2313]

imagine a new ristar game with the sonic Mania style aaaaaaaaa i would like something like this aaaaaaaaaaa

[@Prostaceus56]

@@victorandresbastidatorres2313 Its Mode To Sonic Mania Called Ristar Mania ;D

[@victorandresbastidatorres2313]

@@Prostaceus56 yes i would like to play it.

[@BlubirdJay]

I saw Ristar and hoped before I even clicked the video that it was Splash Down, I freaking LOVE this track. Water levels suck, but they have the best music, every time. Ristar is no exception!

[@NeoNoteDev]

Well, actually I really enjoyed Round 2 though, the water mechanics in there are very nice

[@AguaCrunch]

YOOOOO RISTAR????? More people need to play that game smh, I'm so glad you covered this!

[@mrgameguy13]

I'm glad he covered not only Splash Down, but also Crazy Kings and Greedy Game, and I agree; more people do need to try out Ristar. Hopefully SEGA will bring him back someday.

[@jonathanhargraves2241]

So underrated man

[@shardinhand1243]

hell yeah!!!!!

[@tehflame350]

FR!!!!

[@amethystthepurplelynel7994]

RISTAR IS SO UNDERRATED ALONG WITH DYNAMITE HEADDY! OMG I'm so glad he did Splash Snow (second level of planet freon music)

[@don_thenintendofreak3145]

Ristar is my favorite Sega genesis game.

[@mpoerot8013]

too bad when it came out people are busy with PS1

[@Keyshooter]

"this game is underrated!!" i see... a man of culture

[@battleofthreeearths1103]

Ristar's songs are really excellent!!!

[@CrazyshadowTalksFootball]

Just last night, I broke out my sega genesis collection on the PS4 and played me some Ristar and Sonic Spinball!!!

[@Cephonster]

I feel like Smash needs more obscure characters instead of just popular ones, since it can introduce more people to that series, so if Smash got another obscure character, Ristar would be a great choice!

[@bigoof9654]

Then again, the F-Zero/Starfox situation could end up happening where they only become known based off of their Smash appearances. (EDIT: Forgot to mention that despite C.Falcon's status in Smash he hasn't seen an entry in the F-Zero series in a long time now.)

[@george9747]

How does this guy just already know how to play every song that comes on??? Absolutely mad, keep up the great content :))

[@Popponic]

Dude Ristar!? This game is so underrated it's insane! Awesome stuff yet again.

[@BrainyAshes]

Reminds me of those space-themed Flash games. Do I dig? *Yes.*

[@TheAdvertisement]

The boss intro theme and boss battle theme were amazing! Then the final boss theme just blew them out of the park!

[@PkmariO64]

I spent nearly 4 years looking for a copy of Ristar, before finally receiving one for Christmas. Suffice to say, it has quickly become my favourite Genesis game.

[@syxtfour]

Ristar is such an incredible game. Beautiful visuals, amazing soundtrack, cool character designs, a fun and unique gameplay style, it's such a great game that never ever gets enough love.

[@HarumiYu]

Ristar as far as I know was the first game with "idle" animation.

[@TGHunter]

Nah, Jazz Jackrabbit (1994) had that. And tbh, Sonic too.

[@Sparksterchan]

Sparkster in Rocket Knight Adventures had one in 1993 :)

[@GScottActing]

Sonic's first game in 1991 had it. Dunno if anything else had it before then.

[@avadoksorem2854]

The sheer joyous surprise I felt when I suddenly unlocked Ristar in Sonic Mega Collection.

[@futabamajima]

New Ristar content!! Always incredibly appreciated. Ristar is by far my favorite game of all time

[@Neo-Metal17]

Crying World and Greedy Game have to be my two favorite songs in the game.

[@m7mi914]

That's awsome! Keep up with the great work, man! 🌟 Btw the Song is great too, and is my first time Hearing it lol--- it remember me of Kirby a bit

[@praisedscooter]

First words out of his mouth and the title DO NOT MISS! Whole OST is a banger.

[@raventl]

I've seen few of your videos, they are great. But I'm fully in love with your channel after this one

[@NeoNoteDev]

Would be cool if he did an entire ost, with planet Sonata and Automation and other levels

[@neighbourhoodmusician]

Man, you were on your groove for this one. Sick stuff. Nice ride cymbal and hi hat work.

[@zaylynndavis3189]

Ristar after fighting Uranim be like black eyes casts everywhere and burns

[@moneywaffles9912]

Ristar remake. We need it. Gimme.

[@goldenlightning8842]

YES YES YES DID YOU REDO YOUR RISTAR DRUM SESSION!! The older one was screwed over audio wise and I've been hoping and "pray pray playing" that you would redo it if you catch my drift This game is literally my pride and joy and my favorite game of all time and you drumming over the soundtrack brings me ultimate joy

[@boredom120]

8:46 darn good is an understatement - IT'S AWESOME!!!! 💕💐

[@xtv62]

I freaking love Ristar, it was the first Megadrive game I bought with my own pocket money after helping at my family's groceries store when I was a kid! We had a Megadrive at my grandparent's home and since I was there almost every weekends and was pretty much the only one playing video games, I used to leave some of my games there. I was so mad when one day I found out that one of my older cousin decided to take them and sell them to get money!

[@MaxFirestorm]

Full soundtrack playthrough when, Jerod? FULL SOUNDTRACK PLAYTHROUGH WHEN???

[@Mythix-yf6yw]

Brb just wondering gonna listen to the ristar ost, thank you @The8BitDrummer this was my childhood

[@EtanWoognar]

YOOOO your skills are absolutely amazing and love this gameee

[@Brodoof]

Absolutely destroyed Kaiser's Theme. What a treat man

[@Sheithan]

Gosh darnit I missed this stream! Thanks for the highlight tho!

[@Yorgivgm9618]

Finally, someone other than me praising Ristar's soundtrack!

[@tails_the_god]

this dude can beat the drums better then how i was able to beat the game easily XD

[@oimenamesrick]

This is awesome!! Embrace your inner Ristar geek, the world needs more of us!

[@Franpa777]

My favorite drummer played the music of one of my favorite games, I can finally die :"D

[@croutondotnet]

this makes me so unbelievably happy, it sounds so good :')

[@Sparksterchan]

HECK YES. Ristar's soundtrack is amazing. The game itself will always be one of my favorites. Great vid!

[@user-lq8lh3nq9h]

The way of style of each music sounds like if ristar was a modern game

[@shardinhand1243]

first songs from the under water world my fav tied with the music world!

[@AlexParr]

Damn straight. The soundtrack alone was enough to make 4 year old me fall in love with this game. I'm not sure which I played more back then, Sonic or Ristar. So far, the only way I've experienced this game is via emulation and clone consoles. I plan to get an original cartridge for my Sega Genesis soon.

[@Prostaceus56]

Ristar Is The Best Sega Genesis/Sega Mega Drive Game I Ever Played Really ;D

[@Sputnik5790]

you made me buy this game my dude congratulations

[@williamdavis3376]

The would never guess atomaton 6-1 theme

[@JosiahMYST]

That Finale Song Build Up Was What I Was Here For!!!!

[@AidanMmusic96]

What a cool soundtrack! Also, RE ice levels, PokePark Wii's ice level soundtrack was fabulous (as was its granite level!)

[@Nosgoroth]

Heck yes, one of my favorite games from the MegaDrive. I beat this back then in the original hardware, pity I don't have it anymore.

[@megadriveleo]

That Greedy Game cover was insane! LOVE IT KEEP IT UP MY MAN!

[@brinst_ar]

Two soundtracks i love, Ristar and Bomberman. They need more appreciation

[@jub8891]

rink rink theme from the freon stage is the best

[@Dununerp]

You make me want to learn how to play the drums

[@iuriiusgt]

Oh yeahh!Sega still alive!!

[@DoctorInsano88]

That's one of my top OST's from my list

[@igorturvanin9766]

Sounds pretty good!

[@thisisasupersayin376]

I want more of these quiz segments on Jerod streams

[@captainali7564]

Ristar kinda underrated both in the music and the game in general

[@shardinhand1243]

holy shit... holy shit! yeah! this is my jam man!

[@Zerek592]

I was hoping he'd start drumming on with the first half of the credits theme, but sampling most of the game's soundtrack works too!

[@schloky1281]

wasn't expecting ristar out of nowhere. it had been a while since i last thought about ristar

[@himmel7344]

Nice.

[@nado2576]

Yes

[@extrashifty578]

Ristar is 1 of my fav retro game.

[@LavaCreeperPeople]

great and underrated OST

[@GrounderSez]

this soundtrack is absolutely amazing

[@masterreece1098]

nice to see someone who loves ristar as much as I do

[@williamdavis3376]

Uranim the cyborg guy is my second favorite boss because in his fight it's real fun

[@juliosepamadres1483]

glorious, i love u ristar

[@leorole9344]

You are GOD. DAMN. RIGHT.

[@EpicKevster]

We need to bring Ristar back!

[@shardinhand1243]

couldint remember the fourth song was the ice one, didint reach that level often, normaly died on the music boss

[@__dane__]

Roster is a staple GDQ tune. Absolute banger

[@ellebastonart]

I've been tempted to get Sonic Mega Collection for a while now and learning Ristar is an unlockable game on there is giving me more incentive to buy it (although I don't own any game compilations so is this a good way to play it or is there like wonky emulation or anything else?)

[@averypennington1506]

Dude Ristar is epic

[@MichaelKTV]

Ristar is such a great platformer! 💜

[@zaylynndavis3189]

I think the Automaton boss Uranim looks huggable

[@leosoulstorm]

i agree with the title

[@De_an]

I've always thought Ristar looked like a fast food mascot.

[@OreVYuss]

i mean he does look like the hardee's/carls jr star

[@MarkerMurker]

You should check out Spark The Electric Jester!

[@Littenletsplay]

I played ristar before I reccomend playing it ITS FUN AF

[@TomLandolt]

just downloaded ristar from the 16-bit audiophile project website and youtube shows me this.... mhm........ coincidence? :)

[@boredom120]

You go from panic inducing anxiety to enjoyable boss fight music and you're now running about trying not to die or defeat the boos so you can keep listening to the song. 💕💐

[@atinofspam3433]

i have this on my sega mega drive

[@kitsinthewebs222]

Dude, I miss Rstar! Totally underrated title

[@TheGamingWard]

Ristar is absolutely ACE

[@RikouHogashi]

'ILOVEU"

[@edsondantas6033]

One of the best game soundtracks i hear. Who is the composer?

[@beatziegraham6928]

You think Ristar is underrated? Try Vectorman. Sega doesn't even acknowledge him anymore outside of Genesis collections. The Vectorman and Vectorman 2 soundtracks are awesome. Especially Ocean. The song for stage 3 in Vectorman 1.

[@TGHunter]

Yea, another underrated one is Jazz Jackrabbit. There are a lot of old underrated games that are forgotten in the past

[@speed_311]

ristar, my scrunkly

[@happysofttm3375]

8:43 what the people want

[@shootuh]

Ristar is so underrated

[@yoelchris2596]

I see retro game, i click...

[@FerreTrip]

Do Busy Flare!! _Do Busy Flare!!_

[@SteffTheElf]

Haven't heard of this. Off to Google I go!

[@CrimzonWolf777]

You won't be disappointed at all

[@killakira346]

I love ristar so much bru 💀

[@psifox5102]

I Love this. But the second act is WAAaay Better!

[@SliderGamer55]

Ristar OST is top tier, legit as good as the Sonic games from that era.
