So, this game about a short dude with a shovel; it's really damn fun. What's more is that the music - composed by Jake Kaufman (virt) - is one of the best parts of the overall experience in my opinion. When I first started this medley about 2 weeks ago I kind of figured it'd be pretty easy compared to my last medley, since I've always been able to easily decipher chiptune in the past. I thought I'd have it out in a week. Ha.

Let me tell you: Jake is a beast composer. Sounds easy? Looks easy? It's fucking not. This is one of the most difficult things I've had to transcribe and learn on guitar, and that includes beating out tracks by Between the Buried and Me, Dream Theater, and Protest the Hero. It's not the heaviest nor the shreddiest thing I've learned, but goddamn is it dense.

Anyway, the game itself is really fun and my favorite of 2014 thusfar, beating out the likes of Dark Souls 2. You should go check it out because it's a fantastic game with a mind-bogglingly good soundtrack. Yeah I know, some of the takes are blurry. I just wanted to be done with this ;____;
