LGR Plays - Jazz Jackrabbit Holiday Hare '94

Man, playing Jazz is way more difficult when you're commentating at the same time.

LGR Plays - Jazz Jackrabbit Holiday Hare '94

Comments

Absolutely is, way unforgiving. Merry Christmas to you as well!

LGR

Jazz on hard or turbo has gotta be up there with Spelunky for pure brutality. Merry Christmas to LGR and all my fellow patrons! :D

i only really noticed when you make a point of commenting on recognizing the music, which i wish i could hear it at that point

60fps should be smoother, not jerkier! If it's showing up as jerky, you may have a browser or computer that's not well-suited to it :/ I know it's a problem that's been brought up on other people's videos too

LGR

The play seamed jerky to me. Maybe my eyes cannot handle 60FPS.

Thanks for the video- Jazz Jackrabbit is very cool. How do you know the bird's name? I always thought it was Polly for some reason.

*tests some stuff out* In Holiday Hare, the high score table appears after 20 seconds of idle on the title screen and there's no demo mode. In the CD version I have, every 10 seconds of idle on the title screen brings up a demo, first of the 3D stages, then world 1-1, then world 2-1, then world 1-2, then the initial animation sequence before the title screen, then back to the 3D stages, and a high score table NEVER appears. :O ...actually, with my programmer cap on I can think of a couple reasons why this may be working the way it does. Either they needed to add SOMETHING to fill the time gap on Holiday Hare due to the lack of having a demo recorded, or, the original version of the game prior to the CD version HAD high score tables, but the system in place to show them got removed from the CD version. I have no way to check that though...

There can never be enough Jazz Jackrabbit.

icezolation

Agreed, it's a really fun theme

Clicky keys are dope <3

Alyxx the Rat

..huh. Now that you mention it... weird...

Alyxx the Rat

Love me some Jazz... <3 That fluffy turtle-blasting badass has been an icon for me since my childhood... still is!

Alyxx the Rat

Very nice. I knew it sounded really clicky. I approve! That sound has kind of become a staple of your let's plays actually. I just have gotten used to the sound and for me it's just part of your style.

Kevin

It's weird, I always remember there being a high score table in the game as a kid! It only shows up at certain times, like idling at the main menu for about 30 seconds.

LGR

Uses MX Blues!

LGR

It's not overly distracting at all. In fact, the sound is kind of soothing and it reinforces the fact that you are in fact, playing the game. What switches does that keyboard use? It sounds louder than my Cherry MX Reds.

Kevin

...how... does this version of the game have a high scores table when the other ones don't? :o ...how do you even see the high scores without playing the game? o_O *shrugs* At least I know a little bit of what to expect now when I start doing my last video of the year next week. :B

Kris Asick

Why are their demons in Christmas? Because the designer was dyslexic, Satan instead of Santa. It's an old joke but it's my favorite Christmas joke.

Kevin

It ended up being quite loud this time around, hope it wasn't too distracting! Using a Das Keyboard Model S Professional

LGR

Thanks to you, I now love the sound mechanical keyboards. I can hear your keyboard in the background of this video. What keyboard are you using these days, LGR?

Kevin

There is just something about the theme song. It's made of awesome. The awesome beat, the brass and bass, it is one of my favorite themes to games. And I have a ton of video game soundtracks.

Douglas Holmes

Epic games almost always had awesome music, at least the games I've ever played did.

Karashata

Yup, though I think some CD versions include '95 instead of '94!

LGR

Same volume as my other Plays videos :) Otherwise the game overpowers the commentary.

LGR

The music and sound effects seem really low. I couldnt hear the music myself

Zed Supremus

Jazz Jackrabbit never gets old. :) My better CD-ROM version has all the full version levels, plus these Christmas levels you have here. Christmas snowing menu screen during December. :D
