Last Song by SandroT

[raw]
made by SandroT for Ludum Dare 47 (COMPO)

Compose your last song as you fall to the ground.

Start with an arpeggio of the harp. Add strings for a sustained feel. Bring on the clarinets for accents and glockenspiel for rhythm.

There is a problem with you windows exicutable. When I try to run it I get the following error:


ALERT!

Error: Couldn't load project data at path ".". Is the .pck file missing?
If you've renamed the executable, the associated .pck file should also be renamed to match the executable's name (without the extension).


OK

Seeing the other feedback I feel bad asking if you can do a web deploy of this :) I would love to give it a try, but don't have a Windows machine, and don't want to install stuff on my work Mac. Would be neat to give it a go thought.

I got it working on Mac with the normal RightClick->Open->Open gatekeeper workaround and its pretty cool! I'm impressed that you made the low poly village and rocks and all with the rest of the game in only 48hrs! The stuff on the ground level looks amazing and I would love to see a whole village made of this. Its kind of sad that I'm descending so quickly into the ground and dont get to explore it. :) Thanks for making the game! I made a cool song on the way to my doom ;)

P.S. Its considered good form for Ludum dare entries to turn off accepting money on itch.io.

Very cool game! My only wish is that when I collide with a note object thingy... It played back actually on the grid (quantized). It just made it a little difficult to get extra creative.

Very cool! I wish the fall was longer and we could hear all of our loops! Great job and cool idea

The concept is great, I enjoyed 'playing' it. The only complaint is that not all sounds fit well together. Maybe it would be great to have some drums and bass to play with. In the current state, the tune is a little bit monotonous. The idea of the last moments of life becoming a piece of music is fascinating and dark at the same time. This is the type of game I like to find on Game Jams. When it's intended the player not to win, but to experience something new and unique.
