I ended up writing (well, arranging, I guess) two songs for the two boss battles. I'm not worried about bloating the filesize with a couple of MIDI jams & they're both kind of cop outs so don't worry, it didn't put me out anything.
The first boss battle, if I haven't mentioned this, is against Mr. Hooper of "owning the bodega in old school Sesame Street" fame. He owns the liquor store that you rob with George Washington & barfs Mr. Hooper-faced spiders at you. I reworked a MIDI version of the Sesame Street theme song that I found online to accompany this brilliant sequence. I'm happy with the song but the whole fight is still buggy as shit; I haven't really looked into the code yet to see what sort of embarrassing noob mistakes I made but that's probably the biggest non-audio job left to knock out.
For the second & final battle (against Jack Ham, of course) I threw together a MIDI version of the boss battle jam from Jack Ham's Maze of Tribulations. It took like two minutes. GOOD ENOUGH. The battle sequence itself is working fine but it's more tedious than fun so I might rework it a little. Note that I'm not super concerned with the climax of the game being more tedious than fun. You must be waiting with bated breath for this one to be released.
After throwing quite a but of shit against the wall, something's finally stuck for the cavern music. It's not quite finished but I'm really happy with it so far. So I'm'a grind through some big fixin', then finish this last jam, & I think that's all there's left to do.
