* By using a conf.lua file you can define things like window size and title, and also disable unused modules.
* You can cut down on filesize and correct PO2 issues by breaking the bg.png image into two images. By adjusting the scale when you draw the background you can really cut down on filesize. (Note: filesize isn't really an issue for you, but I feel that it's worth mentioning.)
Also, I was wondering why you define a randomseed? I don't see the use of random anywhere in your code.
Hadn't gotten around to making a conf.lua yet. The game is still just one big, unfinished hack. But thanks for pointing it out, I'm pretty sure I'm not going to need neither physics- nor joystick-support.
Aww man, completely forgot to make the background PO2! Did this instead.
I think the randomseed is there because I wanted to make a button that plotted in random notes but then forgot all about it.
Thanks for providing more in-depth feedback. It's highly appreciated.
Can you add like, an inputbox (Not an extremely complicated setup with like, left/right arrows to navigate the typed text, just an ordinary box that only allows entering a 1-2 digit number), and then, like, a first and last time box, and then the numer in the box is how many times to play what you've typed.
So it's like a 3-tab interface, and first you do the first-time box, and then the default box, then the last-time box, and, if you entered, for example, 9 into the box, it'd play as such:
Just had some time on my hands so I added a couple of different moods (scales). From left to right: D pentatonic major, D pentatonic minor, C Major, D blues major and a purely chromatic scale. I might add some more but I kinda want to keep it simple.
I just stumbled upon MIDI.lua which seems fairs simple so I might take a crack midi export today.
