Cave Story/Fridge: Difference between revisions

* ''[[Cave Story (Video Game)|Cave Story]]'': At first, I thought [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KrK2S5m5o44 the music of the Plantation stage] was [[Mood Dissonance|a bit out of place]], as it's a very jaunty tune for the place where the {{spoiler|Mimigas are being forced to grow the very flowers that would transform them into monsters}}. Then, after a pointer from another troper, I realized: Plantation seems pretty pleasant at first glance. It's a [[Breather Level]], and one of the brighter caverns in the game (and if you're on track to unlocking the [[True Final Boss]], it's where {{spoiler|you get reunited with Curly Brace}}). The nasty bit about the {{spoiler|Mimigas farming the instruments of their own destruction}} is something that only becomes apparent after some thought (or obtaining the Mimiga mask). The music mirrors this: It starts off sounding quite upbeat and determined, and loops through a complete melody twice--then in the third loop (1:38 into the song) a counter-melody begins playing and the whole song goes confusing and dissonant. (None of the other tracks in the game feature a fakeout along those lines.) In other words, the level is [[Fridge Horror]], and the music matches that. -[[User:Meta Four]]
