Makealotl Music Updates

I updated Note Nab at Makealotl Music! I had a teacher request that the treble clef questions stick to one octave, she wanted to play Note Nab with young children who had just started reading music. So, now Note Nab has the Simple Treble mode, where all the questions stay inbetween middle and high C. Also, if Delia goes a minute without answering a question, a pop up now appears to tell the user to talk to a note. I got that idea by watching Note Nab played at Game Harvest -- I was surprised how many people were content to wander around the opera house lawn and never touch anything.

New Makealotl Trailer!

I cut a trailer for the Makealotl Music site! I hope you love it, it was tons of work.

And of course, you should probably visit Makealotl Music for all your music education needs

neon98.com updated

My developer web page, neon98.com, got updated with Makealotl Music! I was waiting until the site was a teeny tiny bit bigger to put it on my main site.

I once heard some YouTube dude say that websites really get best over iteration, meaning they get better as you change them over time. That means if you want a cool website someday, you gotta start with a thin one today. I think websites are fun, I think everyone should have one. I think you should link me yours, even.

But really everything you do is iterative, if you'll think about it. Which is fantastic game dev advice, but really it's fantastic advice for any creative endeavor you're going to ... endev.

I realized after I put Makealotl on there, I need to put my smaller projects on there too.

New Game at Makealotl Music!

Come play the new game at Makealotl Music! The Lilypiano is a music toy where you can play tunes on the lilypads. ... really what happens is Delia will summon her shrimp friends to bounce on the lilypad for you.

If you'd rather, Delia and Wendy will play songs for you in Play For Me Mode. Or, Delia will teach you a tune in Teach Me Mode.

Warp Zine 4 Out NOW!

Hey! All the cool kids are reading Warp Zine, are you? Read it here!

I irritated them for a printable version this time, in case you like to read yours on paper, or print yours out and take them to little libraries like I do.

I Got This For Christmas

I got a ... bookshelf bookend thingie. I'm not entirely sure it counts as bookends, or bookshelves, but it is very nice, so I set this up:

Big notebooks in the back, little notebooks in the front, nail polish thinner in the very front for some reason, and in the middle, we're calling that my development liberry. I've read most of those! I have sights on The Hero With A Thousand Faces soon. If you need a review of any of these, holler.

An Update To Last Week's Post

Whoops. I actually think this might be the right answer. I won't be tearing my code up to check, but I wanted to make sure this was seen. Thank you, Hyvernox!
