HYENA

By Vet on January 25, 2026 8:46 pm

Another boss from my game Delta Shift, this time it's more of a seedy Hyena character, who likes to wear his leather jacket. Theory goes every boss has a series of powers you can use. For the 'Yena, it'd be something like you can toss a Kunai or ball of energy and redirect your own gravity for a short period in the direction you threw the projectile.

Some samples I used were a JDilla Kit my cousin gave me years ago, almost a decade ago actually. I used a lot of actual Hyena laughing samples,and other funny Hyena samples I found online. I used a few dog barks, since one of my buddies at a Furry Convention (Further Confusion) mentioned he'd like a distorted loud bark sample. I said great!

I used a few Moon Boy Hyper Trap Beta samples too (just to test out if the free stuff is good).

Overall this is a dense, shorter beat. I might revisit this beat and add a B-side to it, but for now this feels good! I hope you all like my mini series of bosses, it's been fun to experiment more this year.~

Love how the howl is used at the beginning, and how the barks turn into a record scratch at a point - really sleek piece, great job!!!

I hope that cat is okay

Fiancé: "This is extremely (swearing redacted) good."

Wild listen. I thought I was listening to someone's lap dog tongue Didn't think Hyena until I read the name.

For Seedy kinda Hyena sounds like he’s a pretty silly fella, zippin’ around with his gravitation weapons.
