 ===== 4. Comparison of Kirby’s Dream Land 2 and Inside =====
+The Sound of //Kirby’s Dream Land 2// mainly consists of the Level Map and Scene Soundtracks, Boss themes and Title and End Music.
+Additionally, every action has a Feedback noise as well as any special condition or Interface such as Game over, Pause Menu or Title Screen, in order to adequately communicate the Game States to the player.
+//Inside// also has specific level music, though this is where the large similarities pretty much stop.
+Whereas //Kirby// has short Feedback Soundbites for every action, //Inside// has a realistic and timely Feedback simulation, that is the only noises heard are footsteps, sounds you make when landing, climbing, starting machinery etc. Furthermore, //Inside// has no UI music, so the pause and end screens are functionally silent. So, when new music starts, it is immediately clear to the player that they have advanced a level and consequently the communication with the player is almost all narrative.
+Both Games Tend to have a hard cut from Soundtrack to Soundtrack, but whereas this is very obvious in //Kirby//, //Inside// hides this well with its relatively nondescript Soundtrack, as well as clever use of Soundscape, which is wholly absent from //Kirby’s Dream Land 2//.
+In addition to this, both games make use of atmospheric music to convey the games mood, whereas //Inside// is melancholic and dark, using long and low sounds, //Kirby// is upbeat and chipper, using high pitched and happy music.
+Though //Kirby// Also has some more melancholic music, for example when //Kirby// dies and the game is over, it is still overall relatively upbeat and isn’t that emotionally gripping.
+This is in contrast to death in //Inside//, which is incredibly unsettling on account of the music being completely absent and only the player characters dying whimpers being audible, before the screen fades to black.
+Furthermore, //Inside// makes good use of emotional Sounds, displaying the Player Characters inner emotions through audible panic attacks or a racing heartbeat, making the game very emotionally gripping.
+The Difference in Sound can partially be put down to generational differences, As //Kirby’s Dream Land 2// had to make use of the limited Gameboy Sound Chip, and //Inside// has a whole array of capabilities, such as synthesizers filters, and real life objects such as a human skull, making the sound more realistic. However, a lot of the differences must be put down to atmosphere differences, because //Kirby’s Dream Land 2// is intended to be light-hearted fun, whereas //Inside// is supposed to be emotionally gripping and unsettling.
