While heavily compressed, it still sounds much nicer than the dinky midis of its predecessors. The redbook audio in the game was partially recorded live. Putt-Putt remains a constantly-smiling car without much of a personality, but the redesign makes him a lot more likeable nonetheless, and the same goes for Pep, who is now rather cute.Īlong with the visuals, Putt-Putt Saves The Zoo also offers a big step-up in audio quality for the series, perhaps owing the obsolescence of the floppy disk format. Jacob Ellefson, Putt-Putt’s child voice actor, seems to have aged between the past two games, making the character sound more grade school than pre-school age. He seems like he’s also been aged up a bit. Putt-Putt’s eyes have become more vertical, and his shape is more defined, with many shots showing him from a variety of angles compared to the flatter looking prequels. Putt-Putt and his dog Pep have been redesigned, and have many frames of animation drawn only for specific screens and shots. This visual change is the most immediately noticeable element of Putt-Putt Saves The Zoo. In 1995, these advancements were applied to the Putt-Putt series, resulting in a much prettier adventure game, if not one much more complicated. Besides introducing a new franchise, that game also introduced higher quality paper-based animation. Between Putt-Putt Goes to the Moon and Putt-Putt Saves the Zoo, Humongous Entertainment released Freddi Fish and the Case of the Missing Kelp Seeds.
