All of the audio was made in less than an hour with my in-progress synthesizer for Mac:

I spent a few hours on Saturday learning how to use Pixel Bender for a very simple effect that I didn't know any other way to do in Flash. :P

The source is at:

To compile, download the source, install the Flex SDK, and then run:
mxmlc RoachRoute.as --target-player=10.0.0
Hint: Plan ahead.
