@GregsAnimation Well, I think the midi would sound perfectly fine if it weren't for it being played through a VM. I can tell Micro$oft spent very little time perfecting the midi emulation, though, since there is a HUGE amount of static that shouldn't be there when it plays. They didn't even give me the option of choosing a different sound card, even if I could find the drivers. Since it's my only option, though, I'll probably record it in the VM.
@GregsAnimation Yeah, I'm still figuring out how to record the game. If people won't complain about the sucky midi, though, I think I'll be fine with making a video of it.
@GregsAnimation The graphics do look pretty good, actually, for 256 colors. It reminds me of how Disney was able to fit the colorful world of Toy Story into that small of a palette for its Animated Storybook and still make it look as good as the movie did.
@GregsAnimation Yeah, after seeing the entire video, I really can say that Dermott's voice is really bad. Dermott's voice in the animated videos were much better and make Dermott more unique instead of getting the stereotypical long-eared hound voice.
As for Hilda, her voice was also notably annoying yet cute at the same time. The way she narrates some pages of the story sounded like she can't ever help but let out so many stereotypical hen noises.
@JuniorAdventurer I've seen NTVDM's SB emulation, so yeah. I doubt it's very good. I SAY LATEST DOSBOX SVN!!!

@ILookAtBadStuff Good grief! Both the game and the bear are quite awesome, but JuniorAdventurer has got quite a point too!

@GregsAnimation I think that's also so that Lucy the Lamb could say the word "box" often with her trademark pronunciation of it. Baaax!

@ILookAtBadStuff I think she was placed on those pages specifically TO make those noises. Yeah.
