That looks fun though.<\/p>\n <p>Well, it&#8217;s not much to look at, but it&#8217;s actually a game instead of a weird snowball throwing simulator like last time.\u00a0 It&#8217;s two-player and played on one keyboard.\u00a0 You take turns making little melodies\/raps out of four notes\/words. These get thrown at your enemy, and they have to match it back, simon-says-like.\u00a0 If you&#8217;re off-beat, control switches to the other player and you get booed.<\/p>\n <p>I wasted the whole morning trying to be clever with the beat-matching<\/p>\n <p>To-do for tomorrow:<\/p>\n <p>1) Improve the beat-matching. It&#8217;s hard to get it in the narrow range of challenging-but-fun.\u00a0 I&#8217;ve never programmed a game where sound matters.<\/p>\n <p>2) Tighten everything up.\u00a0 Right now there&#8217;s weird delays and stuff.<\/p>\n <p>3) An actual background, etc.<\/p>\n <p>4) More characters.<\/p>\n <p>5) More voices.<\/p>\n <p>6) Juicy.<\/p>","time":"April 18th, 2015 7:41 pm","title":"First day"}
