Jukio’s Revenge!!

Posted on by Ian

I finally took a vacation this week, at a family cottage! I seem to have trouble not working as I still put in about 12 hours, but it was mostly artwork which was a relaxing change of pace — in general it was some much-needed downtime. I’m feeling way better now and ready to rock. WHOOP!

Since I got very little done, I thought I’d share some more of the music that Jukio Kallio’s been creating instead!! (If you missed the clips of his I shared previously, you can find them in this blog post.)

 
GET READY TO ROCK:


 
  AND ROCK IN A MORE EPIC HUGE KINDA WAY…

 
…AND THEN MORE AGAIN!!

 

You might notice a bit of similarity in the general sound of the last two — this is one of the million awesome touches Jukio brings to the music. A couple areas of the game are very closely linked (the levels that take place on the warship’s exterior and interior, I mean) so he developed these common sounds and themes that feature across them. Not only are they wonderful on their own, but they eventually coalesce in a really cool climactic way! Touches like that really elevate Bleed 2 — and even if you’re too busy blasting baddies to consciously be aware of it, your subconscious will totally be rocking out.

Getting back to work tomorrow! I hope you had a rad weekend!
