Ever one for popping as much as share shock teasers after months of quietly working, Stardew Valley’s creator Eric Barone has sat down on a livestream with composing software program Cause Studios to speak about creating Stardew’s soundtrack and wound up debuting a part of a monitor from his upcoming store sim sport Haunted Chocolatier too.
After spending time speaking about composing music and taking part in round with the results utilized in Stardew’s soundtrack (which is nicely value listening to in full), Barone affords to point out off a little bit of his musical work thus far on Haunted Chocolatier.
The primary monitor he reveals off is for one among Haunted Chocolatier’s bosses (and no, I am fairly positive we did not know that it has bosses but, in order that’s one other shock element). You possibly can hearken to the tremendous upbeat trumpet and drums monitor on the timestamp proper right here. I am warning you now that it’s catchy as hell.
The livestream chat speaks as much as ask whether or not Barone had referred to as it a “B boss,” implying an “A boss,” or a “bee boss.” Barone rolls again the audio timeline to deal with a very buzzy little bit of the monitor as a touch. In the event you want another clarification, the file title on the high of his display screen undoubtedly says “beeboss”. Chocolatier bee boss confirmed, and all.
“Not all of Haunted Chocolatier is that this upbeat salsa music. That is truly an oddball,” Barone says, and affords to share one other monitor referred to as “Pristine Snow”. This one sounds much more just like the ambient music I acknowledge from Stardew Valley, some chill piano, a mournful oboe, and some sleigh bells to essentially lay into the winter vibes in Haunter Chocolatier.
“A lot of the music within the sport will in all probability sound like this,” Barone says. “A kind of mysterious, sombre, snowy really feel. That is alleged to sound like a mysterious night time within the snow.”
Earlier on within the interview, Barone talked about Haunted Chocolatier’s music extra typically, describing the sport as a little bit “darker” and saying that he is leaning extra into utilizing synthesiser sounds this time round.
As with different components of Chocolatier, plainly we’ll undoubtedly be capable to see Stardew’s roots in it, even the salsa bee boss bops.
