Very cool, would have loved to see some procedural generation in there :D, amazing work for 48 hours. (I don't know shit about audio programming ;( )
I'm loving all these games with musical elements this time around.
Fun concept. I feel like there's a lot of different ways you could go with expanding the mechanics (procgen, puzzles, enemies, etc). Good work.
Nyrox: The wave sounds are "procedural" generated, but yeah it's not really noticeable.
Docjekyll: Thanks! Yeah, my original idea was to allow more modifications to the sounds and add different elements, but the time was just too short.
audio > graphics amirite?
I liked the puzzle element, but i don't like how it penalizes for clicking the wrong note as I tend to make sounds to match the music.
It's cool to see somebody that have a procedural synth in it's game! You should make a 32k game for this LD32 !
pikmin4000: I'm not good at art, but for that it's not even *that* bad. :D
I didn't think about that. I guess, I could remove the penalty.
lamogui: What exactly do you mean with 32k game? As in 32k demo?
Well, as you know, I really like your game. The procedural sound idea is great. Just too bad you hadn't time to do the frequency modification part, but I guess it ould be a nice future upgrade. I can't do as good scores as you did in the stream :o
Oh man, this was cool. I'm dumb and didn't actually realize that you gave me the symbols on the button icons at the bottom until my third run through, I was just trying to memorize them, LOL! Fun puzzle game, was trying to keep beating my high scores.
I have never done a demo, but it would have been a fun challenge indeed. :)
Very interesting Game! Though the focus is on audio, the graphics seemed unappealing at first.
Yeah, I'm really not good at graphics, but thanks for giving it a shot regardless! :)
Nice game, would appreciate if it was a little bit harder, but it's very satisfying to play the sound sync to the music :-)
lol... i win this game with 0 scores...
but i like the music and gameplay... good concept!!
I'm sure there's a lot room for optimization to make things harder while balancing the score better.
Thanks for the testing and commenting! :)

Mini Submission FAQ
TEAMS: Teams entering the Jam should pick a single representative to submit your game, or create a team specific account you can share. We currently do not support Team Voting, but sharing an account and together playing and rating games is acceptable.
CAN I ENTER BOTH EVENTS?: You should pick 1 event, whichever you think it’ll do better in. If the idea is strong, and everything plays well enough, you can go Compo. If you’re a perfectionist, and would prefer people to play a more polished game, do the Jam. Historically, more games are entered in the Compo, but with more people and more time, Jam games have the potential to be better (that doesn’t mean they are). Many solo participants do enter the Jam.
If you made 2 games, unfortunately, the website doesn’t support multiple submissions per user. To submit your 2nd game, you will have to make a 2nd account. Only do this if you made 2 games. Alternatively, if one game is better than the other, then consider just entering the better game.
CAN I KEEP WORKING UNTIL THE DEADLINE?: Yes! Immediately after the 48 or 72 hours, we do something called Submission Hour. As the name suggests, it’s an extra hour for you to package, upload, and submit your games. If there were catastrophic issues trying submitting your game, or you misunderstood how submissions work, that’s okay. It happens. We’re flexible. If you need advice, check with the folks on IRC. If you need an admin, get in touch.
CAN I KEEP WORKING ON MY GAME?: Oh definitely! You should! But for the sake of judging, keep the Compo or Jam version around. You can include a link to the Post-Compo/Post-Jam version of your game on your games page, but sure your main links are the original version.
PORTS: Ports to other platforms can be done after the deadline. That said, the sooner you finish your port, the sooner people can play your game, improving your chances of placing in the final results. For best results, provide a Web version of your game, or a Windows version with no dependencies. Also be sure to rate at least 20 games to improve your visibility (Coolness).
MY GAME CRASHES, IS UNBEATABLE, OR I MADE A TYPO: We allow you to fix crashes, win condition, or tiny bugs after the deadline. In a sense, this is like “porting” to support more players. We leave this open to interpretation, but generally speaking your game should be identical to the game you submitted. No new features, just fixing mistakes you should have caught had you been better rested.
MY GAME DOESN’T SHOW UP: If you can’t find your game, it’s usually because the URL to your downloads are missing ‘http://‘. Fix your URLs (http://mysite.com/mygame.zip) and you will show up. Alternatively, if you just posted it, wait a minute. The cache may not have refreshed yet.
NOT LOGGED IN?: If you get a message about not being logged in, even though you are, it’s because your web browser cached the non-logged in page. You can fix this by either refreshing your cache or clearing your cache. CTRL+F5 in many browsers. Chrome is a bit more work. Press F12 to enable Developer Mode, then you can right click on the refresh button and select “Empty Cache and Hard Reload”. This option is unavailable if you are not in Developer Mode.
I loved how the notes of the waves are in sync with the music. Nice waves and use of sound for the theme. I got only 80 points though, which is really small.
