Ghostly Notes by Kjip

SUMMON GHOSTS: Summon ghosts by playing their preferred tunes on a haunted piano. While they'll cheerfully compliment your musical prowess when you hit the right notes, beware their disapproval if you miss a beat. Remember, the better you play, the happier the ghosts, and the more harmony you'll hear.
HOW TO PLAY: Watch and listen carefully as the melody is played on the piano, highlighting which keys are pressed. Then, mimic the melody by clicking on the piano keys in the correct order.
What was your high-score, and which ghost did you like the most?
All original music and visuals.

Some feedback in case you find it useful:
- the menu is nice but felt a different game with that different style, the piano scene is awesome, could replace the menu with some intro in that same piano scene that looks better
- include some more details in the piano scene, maybe in the background, to give more ambience and decoration something moving in the background or i dont know, to feel that the piano is somewhere not in the middle of nowhere
- some challange to avoid making the same simon game, maybe include more interactions, timings notes, colors, tips in case you dont know which note is coming, something to make me feel to try another match because i think i could do it better
(my favourite ghost was the italian one)
The furthest I've gotten is 8 notes.
