All the way until the End Credits, where Adventure Apple heads back home after a long journey, having defeated many powerful foes, and now resting for another possibly big adventure he may have.
I like how during the Kwackpot boss fight the Apple isn’t even bobbing up and down like he’s ready for battle; he just looks at it confused because he genuinely doesn’t know if it’s a threat
This album has perfect nintendo game flow. *World 1:* Large, more powerful than the player, but very easy to outsmart. A simple fellow to help you get the controls. *World 2:* The game starts showing you a bit of its edge. This boss is entirely antagonistic, but is also very charismatic and you kind of grow to love when they're on screen. Thinks they're very cool. *World 3 mini-boss:* duck *World 3:* Coming right around the midpoint of the game is the first proper challenge: a doppleganger boss. Propells the main story forward, genuinely a little scary. Defeating this boss feels like a huge achievement. *World 4 mini-boss:* Yeah, it's a little silly, but also kind of a tank and you don't fully believe it's a mini-boss. It plays around with the environment and hits like a truck. *World 4:* We're nearing the big bad now, so this is a huge challenge in the game's core mechanics. The fight itself contains a puzzle aspect that is really frustrating because it's like playing tic tac toe with lava. *World 5:* Final thing before the big bad and while they're tough to beat, it's nothing you haven't seen before. They're really there to hype you up and to get you pumped for the final boss. Making you overconfident. What's the worst that can happen? *World 6:* Complete lovecraftian horror. A full departure from the lightharted, kind of campy aesthetic the rest of the game has had, it is now you against an unfeeling, all-powerful darkness. The threat they pose is existential, every time you die to it you feel stabbing pain and fear in your heart. This is the worst thing that can happen.

Yeah, for a cutscene to help you out of a contrived situation. But we all wanted to play as Citrus Knight.
Kwackpot is a shopkeeper, and his shop theme is that basic “quack” rhythm at the start of the song. A secret item is available for purchase after completing a long side quest from his brethren, called Challenge. After saving up money, a special dialogue happens and then a cutscene showing the caravan shop Kwackpot was inside of unfolding like a cardboard box and instead of the overworld, it’s replaced with the Kwackpot void (as shown in the video) If you defeat him, not only do you get a discount, but his cousin Kwacker fills in and explains that Kwackpot wasn’t possessed or too self-important, he was just a duckwad.

I really hope there's a lot of people who appreciate how clever of a name LAN GNOME is ALONG with him being a literal gnome AND ALSO with the banger track this goes so HARD DUDE
You start as an apple who's fallen from a tree. You have three close friends (a lemon, a pear, and a durian). The world is being corrupted by black stuff and you decide to try and fix it. You fight through the Orchard, defeating the Orchard Ogre, then go through the barn. In the fight with Hogwylld, Lemon 'dies'. In world 3, or the farm, you fight off the kwackpot, then meet the citrus knight, your old friend, but corrupted and trying to kill you, though you and your party fights him. Pear dies in the process, but you and Durian survive and kill Lemon. You two reminisce in the resting area. You then wake up in a strange world, with nonsensical things. You fight off a bus, before meeting your old friends revived, Pear and Lemon, and everything seems to be good, until you realize you're in a simulation. You and Durian manage to break free and kill Lan Gnome, the programmer. You and Durian continue towards the source of the black stuff, until you arrive at a castle. You fight your way through it and meet Peach & Nectarine, who are defending a black portal. You kill Peach, and Nectarine kills Durian in revenge. Bereaved, you are determined to find the source of the black stuff and why everyone wants to kill you. Nectarine warns you to not go through. You kill Nectarine, silencing him, and walk through the portal. Here, you meet Void Mother, who initially hides, generating fake clones of your friends to tempt you to stay. However, you know they're fake, so Void Mother commands them to attack you. You fend them off and kill them. Void Mother then tries to kill you herself, and you fight. No matter if you win or lose, just before her or your death, she will use her 'final attack'. The screen goes black, and you reappear, back in your Orchard, with all of your friends congratulating you for defeating the void mother. However, all of your friends have something off about them, a dark spot, a scarred eye, blackened leaves...

this cliffhanger is bothering me! argh! I'm gonna make my own ending! After you see the same corruption that you saw all the way back that lead you here affecting your friends, you simply can't take it anymore. You try asking them, and they completely act like it's not there. After you get a better understanding of the situation, more cracks in the illusion appear. You exploit one of those loopholes to get out. When getting out, you're faced with a choice. Exit and re-enter a world where your friends and comrades are gone? or stay in the idyllic new reality? (yeah it's the matrix) If you choose to exit, the FINAL BOSS appears, the void mother, enraged and now using her full power. When you beat her, her dominion over the land fades. You return to the farm, encouraging other youngsters to find their own friends like your kinship your own fallen comrades!

Boss gameplay walkthrough for newbies: The Orchard Ogre dashes with his pitchfork aimed at you. You have to pick up chickens and jump with them (making use of the slow fall mechanic) to dodge his attacks. When he misses, his pitchfork gets stuck - giving a chance to land some damage. Hogwylld moves mechanically, throwing bombs that explode after a few seconds. A well-timed bomb will explode in Hogwylld's face, upturning the robot and exposing the curly tail. Kwackpot does a spin attack that homes in on you. Lead it over to one of the pillars to make it crash, then land some damage. Be sure not to jump on the pillars themselves, or Kwackpot will jump up into the air onto you! Citrus Knight is tough. He won't attack if you are standing still, and will block all attacks if you aren't z-targetting. I recommend going back to W1's combat tutorial to learn Citrus Knight's moveset and use it against him. Minnie Bus's weak spot is her exhaust pipe. If you run ahead of Minnie, she will spit nuts and bolts at you. Wait for a nut and double-jump over the bus, throw it into the exhause pipe, and her engine will go down. Attack her from the front window, where her eyes are (though she sucks them in snail fashion when the engine busts). The timing for this one is super hard to get right, especially in her final stage where she spits explosive nuts. LAN Gnome is notoriously the easiest boss in the game. The lasers spit out a plasma ball that you can volley back. You need to volley each laser 3 times before they explode. When you explode both the Gnome will jump out of the bay and shoot lasers, which you volley again until he collapses. Peach and Nectarine hail lightning from the sky to hit you. It doesn't show on some screens, but the colours are slightly different (peach is more orange, nectarine is more pink). They are immune to their own lightning, but you can stand next to one at the right moment to make a lightning bolt hit them (hit Peach with Nec's lightning). Once one is dead they leave behind a stone, which you can use to finish off the other. Void Mother is hard. It's a combination of her hands trying to smoosh you and her eyes which send out beams of light (notice a theme?). You need the Chestnut powerup to destroy the hands (go into the shell right when she's about to hit and her hands will get beat up until she stops using them), but you can just destroy her eyes by shooting pips at them too. It is a good idea to sort out the hands though, because the time it takes to aim is time where she'll be getting ready to smoosh you. She'll also be spitting out ghost fruits, so I hope you've gotten good at slicing them. Good luck!!

Fun fact: VOID MOTHER's boss room is the only one to contain a 3D object in the skybox. By loading the Orchard Ogre sky texture and wrapping it around two rings rotating in two directions (rotating around the ring's curvature produces the wavy motion and rotating horizontally creates the actual motion), the orange rifts are created over the black skybox, creating the background.

I was trying to figure out why void mother was so unsettling to see during her section even though if I paused it it wasn't nearly as bad. I realized it just creates a super uneasy feeling watching her eyes since they are the most prominent part and the face behind is just barely out of focus enough to feel uncanny and frightening. Then as I watched her eyes I realized that they kept going back and forth. Then I realized what she was going back and forth from. She focuses on apple guy for a bit then sort of shifts and the pupils seem to look at the screen implying that she is aware of the player and damn if that isn't just the best little addition to push her over the edge on the scary-as-shit scale.

I wish this genre would genuinely be a thing. There's just something novel about having specific tracks used when you're fighting against a specific characters. More so, when the boss themes are going against you (like the Colossus of Rhodes boss from God of War 2).
Void Mother is exactly the kind of creepy, awful nightmare fuel Nintendo would put in a Kirby game. Well done. 10/10 I'll be sobbing in the corner if anyone needs me.
And then there's a post credit cutscene that shows that Citrus Knight survived the encounter and there is something deeper and darker working behind the scenes
Citrus knight's theme has a certain cockiness to it that I love. Like they'd boast about their evil deeds, knowing full well that they used to be a completely different person, before kicking their former ally's ass.

Made a bunch of random sounds and voices to go along with each boss as if you were hearing actual gameplay of them as I went through this video and I think that really added to my experience here

Someone else who does that! Finally!
I swear I've had the idea to develop an imaginary game based on boss battles a long time ago - and you just did it. I can't even say that I'm mad about it because I love what you did - it reminds me a lot of Mother's official render artwork (and its whole general quirky whimsical but dark vibe), Yoshi's Crafted World's bosses, the Switch remake for The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening, and a PS1-era inspired look. I love it.
man citrus knight motif goes sooo hard, i could see this theme being first meeting him normally, then a more sped up intense version for his battle. Great album!
I love making art for nonexistent video games! I shall now listen to this religiously and base an entire drawing session around it
Man, i had this idea around my head for a long time... glad to see someone already put it into reality. Much respect.
this has to become a real game!!
In true cute-game fashion, the last boss is a deeply upsetting horror from beyond the stars

Honestly cirtrus knight is more horrifying the void mother Void mother is just a big women citrus knight is a friend who has killed your Allies and you see there body parts around him
I would love to imagine such a happy and fun looking game just being the most terrifying bullethell you’ve ever seen, being second in difficulty to Getting over it.
Citrus Knight is my favorite so far. I love any song with that kind of chord progression

The Void Mother is legitimately terrifying
I absolutely ADORE the animation for the fire in the rest area. so simple, yet so effective! Thank you for the tunes.
I want to make a sound effects pack for each of these bosses so badly, but I feel they wouldn’t do justice to the genius of this soundtrack
This album is amazing. I honestly can't stop listening You are a very, very talented composer
So happy I found this. I wish this was an actual popular genre, but also a way for unfinished indie games to show off their concepts despite not materializing.
Big Kirby vibes, particularly the rest area. Lovely!
Damn louie really brought out the chorus kids for the final boss
Everything from the concept to the execution of this whole album is pure genius. Your work is incredible.
I don’t know why but I think MINNIE BUS’s theme is so good
This feels like the kinda game that has crazy lore... I wanna make crazy lore... like you know, fruit, and the first and final boss being the only "humans" even if neither are actually human, also industrialization
During the minnie bus fight, there's a bug if you dash into its charge attack which sends you flying upwards if you use your s right, triggering the void mother fight. Scared me the first time but a good time save.

what's funny is that all the bosses are loaded in the same room, and you could theoretically go out of bounds from orchard ogre all the way to void mother and it would still function perfectly. minnie bus is just the easiest one to do. what's even funnier is that the very trigger that sends the player to the void mother fight was supposedly left in as a debug feature, as it was later patched in the japanese release to immediately exit the level if you leave any of the boss "rooms".
This art style reminds me so much of old claymation cartoons like Gumby or Davey and Goliath, and this game concept has a Earthbound/Super Mario RPG feel to it. A pretty cool combo!
Fun Fact! When you beat a boss, you can go to Grandpa Grape’s house for his thoughts on each of them. When beating Orchard Ogre: Ha! That idiot really thought it was good idea to chuck Parry Plums at ya! When beating Hogwylld: My, what peculiar fellow. Though, that glint in his eye does look familiar… When beating Kwackpot: You ok? You passed out when you touched the knob. Hey, where did you get that door key from? When beating Citrus Knight: Orange I’m glad you beat him! What about this dog? I found him and thought to give him a home! When beating Minnie Bus: Stupid ogre traffic! Causes nothing but trouble! They have tasty jam, though. When beating LAN Gnome: What happened to my radio! I need it for my news! Oh… at least you’re all right. When beating Peach & Nectarine: Those gals used to be so lovey-dovey with each other. They would always be holding hands everywhere they went… When beating Void Mother: *Grandpa Grape isn’t in his house when you enter. Only markings covered in orange jam and his dog is cowarding in the corner.*
man leave some talent for the rest of us but in all seriousness you have quickly turned into a huge inspiration for me you are amazing
I would pay copious amounts of money for someone to actually make this game, and also a dlc for it using the dlc album. I also like how both the boss album and the dlc albums ending songs have the same motif as the very first apple related song: melody meadow
Love how Kwackpot stops our little buddy's idle animation from confusion, and then instantly transitions to a complete opposite tone
Love the music! A lot of the boss artwork have me some strong SMRPG vibes~ Great stuff all around!
Kwackpot did not deserve to be one of the shortest songs, it's a bop. but all of em were amazing. to my playlist they go!
The struggle I face as a music producer knowing that nothing I ever make could compare to the genius that is Citrus Knight's theme

Dude just like make it Make something better stop downplaying youreelf
Getting some major Kirby vibes from how the world and characters start of simple and cute but the the final boss is some kind otherworldly entity of evil. Great stuff Louie! You're an inspiration!
this idea is so interesting. Making music for a non-existent game you have an idea for? very intriguing. I like it
This makes me want to make legit attack patterns for these bosses so bad 😫😂

Enemies for the 1st Lv could be like Raging Radishes, You have to make them chase you so they run into the edge of the screen to stunning them for you to stomp on
LAN Gnome's theme goes so hard
The light-up reveal of Citrus Knight caught my eye, it was really cool! I really want an isolated video/track of LAN Gnome's theme to loop, that rocks hard
I wish we could see some of their attack patterns. Void Mother would definitely have some crazy moves
The super authentic 90s video game sounds mixed with funky vibes make this a super fun listen! Also love that you took the time to make animations for all of them, they really add to the lore 👏🔥
Lan Gnome's theme (9:03) has a distorted version of the rest zone theme at the start
Corrupted Comrade: Citrus Knight has to be my favourite!! It’s so dramatic, tense and spooky!

i love it for the rythim, but yes, it is =D
I love this sooo much!! The awesome boss music, the cool animations, the awesome bosses (really love the play on words on their names)! I really want this to be a game someday!
I am in love with the cover art, VOID MOTHER in the background is absolutely *menacing*
I like how apple dude gains more heart containers after each song, makes it feel more authentic!
This is such a charming art style. Would definitely pay for a game in this style.
Words cannot explain how much I love this!!! Anytime I try to find boss music its not like this & It feels like something I can buy on my switch or something Conclusion: I love this sm ty for making this
As someone who absolutely loves Mirror Battles, I have a feeling Citrus Knight would be my favorite boss...
I want a longer quackpot boss song 😂
Here I am thinking of lore and plot for this non existent game. Louie, I always love what you do.
These all slap, but I'm particularly fond of Citrus Knight's theme 🤘🔥
NOOOOO CITRUS KNIGHT YOU WERE LIKE A BROTHER TO ME DON'T DO THIS
I have respected your art for so long, and this album perfectly ticks all the boxes of what I love about your work. And that list just keeps growing. Every detail and note is precious and comes together to create works of art. From the bottom of my heart, thank you. Keep doing what you love 💜
I love the concerned expression of the hero during the KWACKPOT fight
LAN Gnome... I have no words to describe the near cosmic levels of ear-tingling (in the best way possible) I have just experienced - thank you man
Such a fun concept album!!
