These tunes are adorable, catchy, and so Yoshi!

Yoshi's Woolly World is an excellent platformer on the Wii U. It was released just last year. The entire game takes place on Craft Island, a beautifully hand-crafted, knitted world. Everything is made out of yarn or similar materials. It's adorable! The developers found clever ways of using the yarn ascetic to make levels unique and fresh. Some complained that the game was too easy, but there's plenty of challenges if you want to collect everything. Woolly World has come the closest to capturing the magic of the original Yoshi's Island.

Yoshi's Woolly World Switch

I personally enjoyed the game, but I was really blown away by the soundtrack. The songs are simply wonderful. They're vibrant, fun, often catchy, and done with excellent sounds. Composed by Tomoya Tomita and Misaki Asada, the soundtrack goes a long way in making the game even more enjoyable than it already is. The songs below are some of my favorites, and rest assured they will brighten your day.

Craft Island


This song, which serves as the main hub theme, is very soothing. It sounds like a mellow country song, using guitars and a light beat. If you need to relax, just listen to this. I found myself listening to it for a short while before moving on to the next level.

Sponge Cave Spelunking


This is the theme for the underground levels. It's subdued and mellow. The main instrument is even some kind of muffled horn. It's low-key, but it does pick up a little bit as the song goes on. I find myself just really enjoying it. Once again, it's relaxing. But don't think that all the songs are like this in Yoshi's Woolly World!

Scarf Roll Scamper


This song is a lot more peppy and vibrant. It starts off with piano, which is used quite a bit throughout the soundtrack. As the song progresses, more sounds are added, and the overall feel is just very positive and happy. It's a kind of adorable adventure sound, which perfectly fits with the game.

Vs Big Montogomery


This is a boss battle theme. It mostly uses piano, and it uses it well! The feel is tense, progressive, and the song just keeps moving. You'll notice that the piano never stops playing. This song is perfect because it plays during a boss fight that involves a big mole who is constantly moving underground to try and pop up beneath you. Spot on.

Shy But Deadly


This is my favorite song because it's very catchy and upbeat, which is my favorite kind of music. The positive vibe is there the whole time, making you feel good as you play (or listen). The driving beat keeps the song moving as instruments move in and out to add flare. The second half of the song is especially enjoyable. Just a great song!

Fluffy Snow, Here we Go


This song is brilliant! Obviously, this song plays for a snow level. It captures the feel of a video game snow level, but also sounds like you're shopping at the mall during Christmastime. Actually, I listened to this song a lot during the Christmas season last year. It's perfect! The whole song is light, cheerful, fun, and playful.

The Desert Pyramid Beckons


Some songs in the game utilize the main theme in creative ways, but none of them do a better job than this one. This song takes the main theme and puts it into an Egyptian style. As you listen, you'll feel like you're in ancient Egypt. The instruments and flow of the song make this one go a long way in standing out among all the others.

Vs Mega Baby Bowser


The final boss battle is epic, being an homage to the original Yoshi's Island. The music makes it even more epic! This song is simply great, evoking a feeling of dread and darkness. It's a tense song that is carefully crafted to sound very sinister. Is it more epic than the final boss music from Yoshi's Island? You can be the judge of that.


Twelve frames for a single second

To produce stop-motion animation, you position models by hand, take a photo, move them a bit, take another photo, and so on. You have to keep track of how Yoshi and the objects around him should be moving as you photograph frame by frame, so it’s a pretty painstaking process.

12 photos are needed to create one second’s worth of animation. Put the above photos together and what do you get?

Behind the scenes

Theme

Let’s take a look at what happens during the animation process. This is the set where the animation takes place. With all the tools and equipment around, it gets kind of cluttered.

If you look closely at the photos, you’ll see that Yoshi and his pals are held in place by metal clamps. These are called “rigs,” and they’re used to keep objects in the positions they need to be.

The many faces of Yoshi

During the shorts, you may have noticed how Yoshi has all sorts of different facial expressions. How do they do that?

Here are some of the parts used for Yoshi’s eyes. These can be switched in-between frames to let Yoshi blink, change expressions, and more.

The Yoshi featured in the shorts looks a lot like the Yarn Yoshi amiibo figure, but it’s actually a little different.

See how the arms and legs are longer? Plus, there are metal joints embedded inside the stop-motion Yoshi model, which makes it stiff and heavy. Thanks to these joints, the animators are able to make Yoshi hold poses and move with precision.

Photographing frames, rigs and all

Check out the difference between the original photos and the versions used in the animation. The rigs used to keep things in place stay in the shot and are then edited out later. That’s right – stop motion may seem like an old-fashioned method of animation, but it actually involve some pretty state-of-the-art image editing.

Here’s a behind the scenes clip we got our hands on to show you what the animation looked like during production.

A message from the production team

Here’s a message from Mr. Minegishi at dwarf, the animation studio, who lent his expertise to producing these animations:

“Stop motion Yoshi acts in his own special way, a way that’s different to the Yoshi you typically see in games. We hope that players will enjoy seeing Yoshi in a brand new light.”

In-game features

The game contains 30 different animated shorts. Each day you can watch a new one, so you’ll probably want to try to play at least once a day. You’ll also get quizzed on the movies you watch. You can try to answer the questions correctly to get Beads that are sure to help Yoshi along the way!

The lovable Poochy, who appears in the shorts, will also be getting his very own amiibo figure (sold separately or as part of a special bundle with Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World). It doesn’t move like Poochy does in the animated videos, but by scanning it at any time during a course you can call Poochy to your side, letting you continue the adventure with a faithful companion.

So if you ever need a little break from platforming in Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World, you can check out the stop-motion animated shorts! You can check out some of the videos and learn more about the game at the official Poochy & Yoshi’s Woolly World website.
