It's a bit of a shame what happened with this game, dragging both the Dinosaur Planet idea and Starfox franchise through the mud. But you can really feel what could have been when listening to the ost.
Star Fox Adventures is one of my favorite game soundtracks. Dinosaur Planet is like a little secret trove of new tunes to my favorite game. Thank you for bringing this fully realized version of this song to our RUclips feed.
Thank you for getting to the Dinosaur Planet series! Even though it wasn’t released, it turned into Starfox Adventures. This game in its beta stage actually had a difficult story and music than what was finalized.
You can actually play through a quite good part of the game nowadays, and the various fixes made by the fans for it made it quite more stable than it was when the beta leaked two years ago! What is left is mostly what made the transition to StarFox Adventures though, even if some were drastically changed.
If you've ever played Starfox Adventures, you've played about 60~% of this game. Very late into development on the N64 this game got repurposed into a Starfox skinned Zelda-esque adventure game that was then ported over to the Gamecube. Sadly a ton of content went unused in the final product.
I am impressed by the rendering of the restorations. Could you make a complete video of how you do it? it will also be cool to have other zelda music like ocarina of time or twillight princess!
Of what I gather of the process; So first, an enthusiast listens to a specific piece of video game music. If the music is sequenced, then it can be extracted and have all of its channels listened to separately. When a certain instrument (or plural) stands out to the enthusiast, they search around for an identical match to those sounds; Usually for 90s titles, these come from specific brands of synth pianos like Yamaha and Korg. Then miraculously (or easily, depending on how the music gets reconstructed), the full track gets remade only once all high-quality source instruments have been found and identified. I assume maybe FL Studio is used to put them all together? It's an interesting and fun sub-culture that branched off from the SiIvaGunner community, and as of, there's been hundreds of games that've had some of their utilized instruments identified, even enticing a couple to dig into sample CDs and identifying sounds from there, of which audio from those have seen use by such video game composers as Koji Kondo, Stewart Copeland and Hideki Naganuma back in the day. (This type of sampling research also undoubtedly extends to songs not meant for video games, like Daft Punk's Interstellar 5555 thing)

So awesome to see Dinosaur Planet get the Church of Kondo treatment!
The best part is that it was uploaded on my birthday!
Glad to see DP make a return to the good ol' remastered treatment once more.

I had no idea this game got past the concept art stage

Don't know a thing about this game but the music makes me want to investigate. 🧐

This game is technically where Krystal came from
Neat!
What should have been.
