Okay so you might see this video with the audio muted. Now imagine how the music must sound like. I urge you to unmute and listen to what it's actually like because I guarantee you you're not prepared for it.

Okay yeah, you got me. I imagined something like Hill Top Zone from Sonic 2; I did not expect "off-brand Seal backed by an EDM beat" 💀

Is this related to Hoi on the Amiga? That little guy that follows you around looks exactly like him. I only know about Hoi because it has an absolutely unhinged final level (flashing lights warning)

According to the article in the quoted post from Games That Weren't, the main character from Hoi was supposed to be in the game as an ally character who followed you around, but ended up getting cut as Moon Child was moved from the Amiga to the PC.

okay i watched the video and imma guess before unmuting

first glance suggests generic cutesy platformer music. if not that, then something prog rock inspired like plok.

king crimson has a song called moonchild. there's also that krusty balloon music that caddicarus uses sometimes

gonna unmute now
