I would wish for the notes to be on a keyboard or something similar. Also a Back button for the levels and a visual aid of what levels I already completed. Also the notes should resemble the actually note when you solved the question mark.
It also took a while until I understand that I have to complete the loop and not just play what the composer did xD
It would be nice to be be able to play a note without having the full loop playing. (just to hear what a note sounds like, for myself, before I send my guess)
When you hit a wrong note and the loop replays, the first note of the loop harmonizes with the wrong note, which can make it tricky to get the first note.
bad: the clashing notes when you get something wrong is a bit ow. I think it could fit the theme better (e.g. if it just looped and you had to play along with it until you got it right, or something)
hard for people without good pitch! it would be nice if you at least got the first note for free. would also be nice if the note position on the staff was different for different notes :)
Not sure if it the inteded purpose, but for training at an easier level it could be nice if the loop restarted from your last correct note to the end
As others said, a slight pause after hitting the wrong key, and maybe a display which stages were completed would help alot.
- it's annoying when you hit the wrong note and the loop **instantly** starts again
- You cannon replay the song
So my suggestions are:
- don't count player try instantly - let him to write his version of song from beginning to end - and after this check all notes
- add replay button
- add posibility to listen one separeate note
But still, nice try!
