Lyrics for some songs- You And Me (Susan's theme) and Rock Da World Again


It's been long enough. Time to dump some lyrics for some of the songs. It might be hard to sing along to, though.


You and Me (Susan's theme)

(vocal instrument- Flute)

For a long long time, I've been alone
on a quest to know the old world that I never knew.
But when you came down from the sky,
You were the apple of my eye,
and now I know that there is nothing I can't do...

You and Me?
We can do almost anything.
You and Me?
We can take on the world.
Can't you see?
Maybe it's meant to be
that you're right here with me.

When my father left me long ago,
there was no more turning back from who I really was.
I am a hero through and through,
even when I am here with you,
And there's no way I will leave your side, because...

You and Me?
We can do almost anything.
You and Me?
We can take on the world.
Don't you see?
Maybe it's meant to be
that you came here to me.

I don't know what had brought you here,
I hope you never disappear,
To lose you is the darkest fear
I know.

I know that I can do my best
when troubles put me to the test.
When you're beside me,
I know now where to go.

You and Me?
We can do almost anything.
You and Me?
We can take on the world.
Don't you see?
Maybe we're meant to be
when you're right here with me.


Rock Da World Again

(vocal instrument- Overdrive Guitar (doubled)
The vocals don't exactly match 1:1 with the track.)

Well, I was walkin' down the street, wasn't payin' no mind,
When I felt something at my feet, and what did I find?
It was an odd little necklace, or so it did seem,
but it was act-chul-ly a portable time machine!

When I went to the future, I was in for a shock,
Because the people there? They didn't know how to rock!
So I guess it's up to me to show them how it was done,
and in a short amount of time, they joined in on the fun!

Let's rock, rock the world again,
Rock-Rock, Rock da world again.
Let's rock, rock da world again, Rock-Rock, Rock da world again.

So I went back in time to get a few of my friends,
And I took 'em to the future where the fun never ends,
Cuz I needed their help to show to that future land
How much fun it is to rock like you're a part of a band.

With a keyboard and bass, two guitars and some drums,
and a singer from the future, from the top of their lungs,
We're gonna play every note, we gonna sing every rhyme
We're gonna rock through the future, gonna rock beyond time!

Let's rock, rock the world again,
Rock-Rock, Rock da world again.
Let's rock, rock da world again, Rock-Rock, Rock da world again.

(guitar solo for the B section)

Let's rock, rock the world again,
Rock-Rock, Rock da world again.
Let's rock, rock da world again, Rock-Rock, Rock da world again.

This is the driving sequence in action.

I don't have any original music for that part, and I can imagine that passing-through-flags sound getting annoying after a while.

All this work to get punched in the face.

He's coming back. ...but just this once.

The only thing harder than animating a set of wheels is making it handle like a set of wheels.

...and making an infinite floor without resorting to the official 3D engine.

The next update may be full of bugs.

...moths, mostly.

I hope you appreciate what I go through for pointless details like this.

I don't plan on going this crazy too much, though.

A step-by-step process for bigger sprites.

GM Studio 1 works like Windows XP's Paint, but with nicer features. As such, even a lefty like me can learn to draw right-handed with a Line tool.

Like I said before, draw_background_tiled_ext() can't do rotation. ...but if I'm not rotating, I can use it without consequence for an infinite floor.

I'm gonna work on a system for the road to constantly spawn objects as I move forward in a sequence.

Here I am, still trying to push the limits. I'm pretty sure there's a shader for Mode 7 out there, but this is what I've been working with.

Also, because of limitations, red flashing floors generate force fields you can bump into.

I'm getting closer to my goal here.

All these rock piles are gonna loop indefinitely for now. My goal is to make the road widen, tighten, and move side-to-side with the walls.

...and replace the grassy floor with something more fruitcake-like.
