Yeah, I believe it was some animal sounds that he created by warbling into a microphone. The Llamasoft guys used it as a placeholder. They later tried to make their own set by sampling a live animal but decided it didn't sound as good!<div>

Jeff Minter asked to use your friend's samples? Very cool. That's
like Joe Satriani asking me to use of one my solos.<br>

Subject: [PIGMI] LLamatron and Space Giraffe<br>
<br>
Just been playing Minotaur by Llamasoft, and after
reading his bio I<br>
found about Jeff Minter's Xbox game Space Giraffe. So
I've been playing<br>
that this evening.<br>
<br>
One thing I was curious about though was that he uses
sound effects in<br>
there from Defender, Blaster, Robotron and Sinistar -
all Williams<br>
copyright. Is that allowed these days????<br>
<br>
Space Giraffe is awesome.<br>
<br>
