#MILESTONE UPDATE Instead of working with pure midi/mp3 files, since they don't have big/useable libraries/API, I tried multiple npm libraries, none worked. I just converted MIDI files to JSON files with Tone.js's MIDIConvert. The resources folder has all the json and mp3 that are needed.

With these json files, which is done in main.ts, I worked on the easy mode From 15 - 40, letter A From 40 - 52, letter S From 52 - 64, letter D From 64 - 76, letter J From 76 - 88, letter K From 88 - 120, letter L

These will have to be more randomized

A button obj has letter, time mark, duration The letter is the key that should be pressed. Time Mark marks when the key comes up Duration is for how long the key lasts.

I have to work on creating the layout of the buttons into a big mesh so that it can proceed as the program runs.

Mario is in the background like a monument, the metal shader is referenced from Alexis' Metal Shader.

Music Reader

User can choose a song to play from the menu

The program reads in a json file representation of the midi and analyzes the frequency and beats to create a sequence of keys to press.

User Interface

The player can choose between two difficulties: Easy & Hard

Easy Mode: This mode only uses 6 keys on the keyboard. S, D, F, J, K, L

Hard Mode: This mode only uses 8 keys on the keyboard. A, S, D, F, J, K, L, ;

Start

The user chooses a difficulty mode and a song.

The game starts. The program reads through the sequences of keys created beforehand.

Buttons to smash will show on the screen like guitar hero.

The buttons will move towards you.

The buttons are all in one Mesh. This Mesh moves as time goes by in the shader

The user has to tap the correct key at the correct time.

Visulization Decoration

buttons - will be transparent unless pressed, will have a special effect when pressed The background moves according to the music.

It might be a bit distracting

I created a Mesh with a lot of tessellation and after getting the bpm and the amplitude of the song, it morphs the mesh accordingly. Using a noise function the tessellated polygons were deformed.
