Watermelon Banzai Watch Out For Snakes is like a homebrew ROM hack of different musical influences and genres, taking (8)bits and pieces from the likes of synthwave and chiptunes, resulting in a perfect synchronicity to create the faux-soundtrack to a long lost video game; now that's playing with power! I really wish such a game actually existed though because it has that iconic kind of music which would be absolutely perfect for any high-scoring, adrenaline and quarter pumping adventure in the arcade or at home! Favorite track: Torn.

Dr. Tinkle Before I listened to WOFS, I would often blackout and wake up in a ditch covered in someone else's blood. I was always grumpy and I looked like this :( Now that I listen to WOFS, I look like this :D and the voices have stopped! YES THEY HAVE!!! SHUT UP! Favorite track: Torn.

about

Sometimes your weakness... becomes your greatest strength.

An accident left you hospitalized and alone. Zero chance of survival. An ideal candidate for an experimental cybernetic implant surgery. But there were unforeseen... complications.

Now, you’ll need to harness your newfound UPGRADE to battle the mysterious shadow corporation pursuing you.

It won’t be easy. Standing between you and freedom is an army of company agents and cybernetic nightmares. You’ll need to transform using technology to beat the odds.

But beware – even as you re-make your fate, you un-make yourself.

Nothing lasts forever.

Watch Out For Snakes image

Watch Out For Snakes Atlanta, Georgia

Watch Out For Snakes is 8-bit synthwave from Atlanta geek Matt Baum. Layering NES and Game Boy chip sounds, WOFS creates darkly energetic tracks that pay homage to old video games and 80’s films without taking things too seriously.
