After two weeks of hard work, I’m proud to present the post compo version of my chiptune rhythm game, Melody Muncher Deluxe!

Please please please try it, especially if you were experiencing input lag issues with the 48hr version, as that should all be fixed now!

I’ve implemented a slew of extra features, including better timing code, animated backgrounds for every level, configuration options, high score saving and loading, a new scoring system, particle effects, more stages (and more music!), a brand new mechanic, and of course, EXPERT MODE!

I’ll let these pretty screenshots speak for themselves:

Underwater stage

Pretty backgrounds.  Also, a new enemy type — hold notes!

One of the hardest songs in the game on expert mode.  You have been warned.

Particle effects!

Full soundtrack – TWENTY THREE (23) SONGS!

By the way, all 23 songs are included in the new extended soundtrack.

Download the extended soundtrack here!

I’ll be writing up a full post-mortem on Melody Muncher sometime soon, so look out for that, too!
