    Added in instrument selector and will extend to theremin and song selector once i have more sounds to put in. The last big code block i intend to add is for secrets. if i can i'll add a save/load function, but don't hold your breath!

     

    I've only got a few submissions so far, so please if you get a change record a wav and send it to me! It is super easy and you will be immortalized inside my shitty game!

    Ok, so I'm making a music toy in Gamemaker. You will play a theremin and some drums along with my rendition of winter songs. It will be amazing.

     

    Features to include (probably, i dunno):

    - Mouse driven Theramin!

    - Sick Beatz!

    - Familiar songs performed in terrible, terrible acapella!

    - A plethora body (formerly mouth) derived noises!

     

    Work to date (08-12-2015):

    The main game will all be me, but for super secret password unlocked Easter Christmas Eggs, i need community submissions.

    If anyone wants to contribute, please send a .wav file of your sound to dibkins at gmail.com, selected from the list below. Alternatively, see the 2nd list. All sounds should be derived from your body somehow, the vibrating of lips or sphincter, the crackling of vocal chords, or the rasp of tongue - use your imagination. The sound doesn't have to be great quality, we are talking major amateur hour with this. If you want to do some after effects on your sound go ahead, but nothing major, keep it recognizably organic.

     

    Sounds I need:

    Percussive beats - keep it short. You can send many samples in a single wav and i'll select one.

    A winter/Christmas song with no backing or music - keep it between 20 and 40s, you can send me your own composition if you want! Or like Jingle Bells

    A continuous hum/note/whistle/bleeeep for ~5 seconds at a steady pitch.

     

    Alternatively design some art:

    A percussive instrument with associated beat if you wish! (Current ones are on 128*128 pixel grids)

    A backing skin for a theremin (size tbc).

     

     

     

     

    Immediate To Do:

    Drum/song/theramin voice Selection Interfaces

    Add in more of art that is drawn

    Work to date (28-11-2015):

    Theremin chords should be working, but they only play a minor 3rd and not either of the the other notes i want, despite the code being identicle.

    2 Drums added along with framework to easily add more.
