nice game here. im totally bad at figureing out chords, but that didnt stop me from trying. :D

f4kethis 2016-04-18 04:26

Very original, fun to play with

diewithdustin 2016-04-18 04:28

Cool idea, I can't play it because I just cant do music

I'm surprised by how interesting this game is to play despite quite a very original take on shape shifting. Great if you're already musically inclined

crisp 2016-04-18 13:16

Nicely thought!

Although it didn't switch to the next level, i had a LOT of fun trying to figure out the chords, nice going!

unoion 2016-04-18 13:27

It was hard because of my awful musical abilities, but game is definitely great!

Useful to train the ear. But hard to the uninitiated like me.

I get this exception: "Exception in thread "main" java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: javafx/application/Application" running the .jar

Apparently javafx is runnable in openJDK but in my case, it is not :(

keyboardmonkey, I think you can try to update java and OpenJDK. Sorry for the inconvenience :(

An original concept, and very enjoyable to play!

If you are considering making a post-compo version, I would suggest that you enhance the "win detection" logic, so it does not matter in which order the soundballs are placed :-) Also, it could be useful to be able to listen to a "partially constructed" chord.

You could even add labels to the soundballs and target chord (and maybe even give the name of a "wrong" chord as feedback), thereby making it into a simple edutainment game :-D

Nice! We need more music-themed games around here.

herszkorn-sacha 2016-04-21 08:33

Interesting idea, my musician skills helped me out there ^^

plko 2016-04-21 20:32

Really hard game...

aemiliu5 2016-04-22 07:32

it's nice for training the ear!

designernap 2016-04-23 10:15

Really quite hard for the untrained ear and without the notes on each blob, it is even harder! I like it though. Good work!

runvs 2016-04-27 17:21

cool Idea. Though it is quite hard (at least for someone who only knows how to play drums) to check if it is the correct chord. Well implemented though and nice sound samples!

andy_voz 2016-05-04 13:30

Thanks everyone for the feedback!!! :)

obsessivenotion 2016-05-04 19:56

I loved it, although there is not much to do, i enjoyed playing around with the notes one by one and making those 3

gelisam 2016-05-06 03:59

Way too hard! Maybe begin with easier levels?

drury 2016-05-07 06:55

I so wish I could play this!

I won't rate you overall because I can't tell how good the game is if you know how to play it, best of luck.
