#pajama sam thunder and lightning aren't so frightening

[fuckyeahpajamasam]

This comic was released alongside Pajama Sam 2. I've known about it for years but I had never read it until now. There was another one released for You Are What You Eat that I posted

Here's a sketch sheet I haven't shared here yet.

Concept sketches for a set of characters known as the "Tenki no Yousei" (天気の妖精). They're for an anime-inspired story I wanted to make called "Yume Shounen". I want the series to be drawn in a 90s anime art style and have a bright and vibrant palette. (I've tried drawing anime before, and I always end up reverting back to my Western cartoon style; hopefully someday I can actually set myself to draw the "Yume Shounen" cast in the anime style I envision them in)

From top/left to bottom/right:

Amemiya Haru (春雨宮; Haru Amemiya): Amemiya's name contains the kanji for "rain", and his surname means "spring".

Taiyouchou Natsu (夏太陽蝶; Natsu Taiyouchou): Taiyouchou's name contains the kanji for "sun" and his surname means "summer".

Kazamidori Aki (秋風見鶏; Aki Kazamidori): Kazamidori's name contains the kanji for "wind", and her surname means "fall/autumn".

Yukihiko Fuyu (冬雪彦; Fuyu Yukihiko): Yukihiko's name contains the kanji for "snow", and his surname means "winter".

Also, without looking in the tags, see if you can guess who I based the "Tenki no Yousei" on.

DO NOT REPOST!!! Also on deviantART

The Pajama Family

Mom:

Big Brother Mark:

The door says, “You brother may be fast, but the answer we were looking for was A Cheetah.”

“However large your brother might be, he is probably smaller than a blue whale.“

“That looks like one of my big brother Mark’s socks… smells like one too.” (Sock pattern changes randomly game to game)

“Eggplant, yick! Nobody likes these except my brother Mark.”

Paper: “It’s not easy being the smallest you know” Sam: “I know; I have a big brother.”

Dad:

“This looks like one of Dad’s... I wonder how it got here.” (Again, which sock is dad’s changes game to game)

That’s all for now, if I ever find more I’ll add to this post!

Hey just so we’re all on the same page, Thunder and Lightning from the second Pajama Sam game were totally lesbians, right?

[snowflakeinspector]

‘okay, now let’s move onto economic empowerment of employees’ - a talking carrot in this game for 6 year olds lghkgkj

Remember when Pajama Sam made Thunder and Lightning a lesbian couple

5 Underrated Game Soundtracks, as selected by Brevyn

Pictured: Sound Shapes

Criteria: Video game music with little exposure or no release outside the game.

After editing down my behemoth draft for what felt like forever, I have my own VGM list! As I’ve known most of these for 5+ years, doing my own list proved challenging, but I tried. See the entries from my friends Marilyn Roxie and Jan if you haven’t yet!

5. Various - Sound Shapes, 2012

Sound Shapes is a unique PS3 platformer where music is crucial. Finding coins adds new notes and rhythms to what you hear. Visit the level editor to see they’ve merged a sequencer with the 2D platformer grid.

With cute, colorful designs and no plot, SS is a calming escapist experience. The songs match this with their thoughtful, organic downtempo sound. They form simple melody-loops through synths, e-piano, mallets and other clear-cut sounds. These are refreshing, simple songs with a wide appeal. They could open the gate to enjoying EM for outside listeners and kids. This game makes both music and level design easy to grasp.

In the end, only Jim Guthrie’s Corporeal songs had their own release. I found this odd; what’s a musical game with no full soundtrack? I’d love full versions for Robot And Proud songs like “Aquatica”, similar as his other work gets. As time flies, the SS hype fades and a sequel looks doubtful. A true shame when the PS4 holds so much potential for their concept.

4. Jack Hall - Neopets: The Darkest Faerie, 2005

Yes, Neopets had a video game, and even it had good music. The Darkest Faerie’s sound is pure new age fantasy with flutes and celtic harp twinkling  in every corner. Battle themes aside, Hall fills the game with a strong sense of travel and enchanted feather-light ambience. Many songs ramble as a result, but his themes for known Neopets lands are clear peaks. “Meridell” takes every tone a medieval town needs; proud, tender, casual, a tad lonely. “Faerieland” is what you expect; cloudy new age bliss dipped in choir and rosy flute. Both songs recall Enya’s hits to charming effect. A moment I love is the sad little harp heard in Brightvale Outskirts.

While I can’t say ‘play all 101 songs together!’ I can direct you to my playlist of favorites.

3. Spencer Nilsen - Ecco The Dolphin Sega CD, 1993

Oh, Ecco. I didn't have to play the actual game to admire him. How? Hearing the Sega CD music. The SCD added CD audio to the Genesis, making this live VGM before the Nintendo 64. This gives us a rich, gorgeous new age score with all the right Vangelis-isms and then some. Flutes, mallets, piercing drums, synth shimmers; you name it. You say "Aquatic Ambience" is close as early VGM gets to ambient? Hear "Medusa Bay”. 'New age about dolphins’ won't prepare you for something so grim. I'd say the same for the rest, since Nilsen builds it around the high stakes in Ecco's quest to save his stolen pod. It’s a sad story once you look past the weirdness that aliens took them.

The synths perfectly merge space with water. Their cries and warbles reflect both alien threats and the ocean's mystery. Familiar as dolphins are, the lack of humans added to the game's alien aura. Said ‘warbling’ evokes pure water, changing pitch like a horde of popping bubbles. It's vulnerable, it's flexible, it improves any song. One of the best synth sounds I know.

I didn't need five "Machine" reprises, but skipping a few makes this a solid album. As VGM it's truly unique for its time. Hear this if you're a Tangerine Dream and/or Vangelis fan. “Saint Gabriel’s Mask” from the sequel is unmissable too.

2. Julian Soule - Pajama Sam 2: Thunder And Lightning Aren’t So Frightening, 1998

Before point-and-click fell from grace, Humongous Ent. won many awards. Pajama Sam 2 was my favorite. Why? The unique setting: a weather factory in the clouds. At World Wide Weather, talking chairs and living machines plan the weather.

Julian Soule's music completes this easygoing sky-world. His lively tap-along rhythms and piano chords are a great fit for the factory’s constant motion. A key trait is the sax peering through that motion. Not the usual bold, beefy saxo we know; this one is utopian, fittingly dreamlike. Someone make sky-jazz happen, please.

To contrast, the offices play it cooler with a lounge accent. The piano softens, joining warm bass to form some of HE's most relaxing songs. Now I know how I got my knack for easy listening.

I know HE is too niche for a music release, but I hoped for more interest post-vaporwave. After all, the popular Hologram Plaza sampled this game. 

1. Kevin Manthei - Nancy Drew: Stay Tuned For Danger, 1999

With such a wide range, ND's music could fit many lists. I can't choose from 30+ soundtracks, but I know STFD's belongs in my top 5. As the second-ever ND, STFD has many off-putting quirks. Awkward pacing, hammy acting... but the music is a thrilling neo-noir oddity by itself. Noticing it’s depths helped me find more respect for the game.

The persistent gloom was an early-ND quirk. Where the first game had murder, this had death threats. Kevin's strength for domestic yet secretive piano stays, but a jazz accent takes hold. Plucked strings, vibraphone, flute and double bass create a discreet, sinister aura. The intrigue lies in how it portrays NY at night. Themes like “Dwayne Night” and “Ext Night” dive you into the slow tension of trespassing. Empty parking lots and offices filled my mind. For a moment there, 10-year-old me got incredibly curious about the off-limits rooms I’d see in real life. They stress the city's size so well despite lasting under a minute. The '99 PC dust only adds to the effect.
