Music

This sequel to the Jill of the Jungle features entirely new music tracks, which will later be reused in Jill Saves The Prince and Onesimus: A Quest For Freedom (DOS). Unlike the music in first part, the songs are more melancholic (possibly to accommodate the level design's atmosphere).

Dan Froelich composed the music of Jill of the Jungle in AdLib Visual Composer and then used a ROL to CMF converter to change the music into the format used by the game engine. The music quality is high for an early 1990s DOS game.

The digital sound effect for opening a door is recognizable as theegg from Ultimate Soundtracker (AMI).
