The sound design and music of Little Rocket Lab is full of homages and in-jokes.

One I'd like to share is a silly "woo" at 0:20⬇️

The source is some retro music gear @kyleschmitz.bsky.social and I refer to as the "Woo Box".

Can any fellow music dorks identify it?

Thanks, Kyle!!

Especially, I couldn't imagine the map and the journal any other way. The aesthetic of those features is just *Morgan* to the core.

"The soundtrack is a standout too—gentle guitar, chill beats...shifts between cozy calm and quiet focus as your machines click into rhythm. You’ll find yourself zoning out in the best possible way—lost in loops, surrounded by beauty."

Little Rocket Lab | Review

Every once in a while, a game drops that completely surprises you — not because it’s flashy, or massive, but because it takes something complex…

@underpalewater.bsky.social's art was a huge source of motivation and inspiration when composing the score for Little Rocket Lab. Can't wait for everyone else to see it!

What if the goal of Stardew Valley was to build a rocketship and all of the factories and infrastructure you need to make a it work? That's the premise of Little Rocket Lab, which has a demo that's been entertaining me while I wait for it to release next week.
