Title: Ruddy Road
Game: Paper Mario: Color Splash
Composers: Shigemitsu Goto, Fumihiro Isobe, Takeru Kanazaki
Arranger: Zack Smith
Featuring: Ethan Goldberg, Florian Grader-Beck, Jwoyal Ranjit, Braidon Saelens, Zack Smith
After Princess Peach receives a paper Toad drained of color, frozen in horror, folded into an envelope, stamped, postmarked, and mailed from Prism Island, she and Mario set sail to investigate. Upon arrival, they find the island’s previously buzzing and vibrant Port Prisma deserted and faded. It’s here Mario meets Huey, a talking paint can and guardian of the six (stolen) grand paint stars. The duo sets off to track down the stars and restore color to Prism Island, and their first stop is the rather pleasant Ruddy Road. As our heroes traverse through the seaside path’s colorful scenery and lush landscapes, players can hear this chipper tune that calls back to a familiar motif from the beginning of Mario’s previous adventures. From Paper Mario: Color Splash, please enjoy “Ruddy Road”!
