Prototype


This is just a prototype but fully functional game. I just needed a way to memorize fretboard better and this is what I came up with.  I've been playing guitar for a long time but still have a trouble with getting notes fast when needed to improvise. Learning some kind of pattern and calculating in your head while playing is, in my opinion, wrong way to go about it. You should be able to see the fret and immediately know what note it is, this is why there are dots or in my case bird inlays on the fretboard. Just after a couple of days using this tool I've seen improvements in my fret note memory.

There is room for much more here, like different tunings, intervals, scales, cords, progressions and so on. If there is any interest in this game I might give it a facelift. Graphics are rudimentary but that is hardly the point of the game, for now it serves the purpose. It's a bit wonky if not played in full screen, so that might be a thing to improve upon also.

Hope game helps some one. Cheers.
