A good friend of mine is totally into hackmud: https://www.hackmud.com

It looked neat but I have the same problem as with music games like Guitar Hero etc - I'd rather continue programming on one of my many pet projects or practice playing actual guitar...

I may be missing out though - I wouldn't know because I actually never invested more than 30 minutes in any of those games (also bought TIS-100 last year, never actually played it once).

Incidentally - are there any music games (rhythm, composition, etc) that are similarly "hardcore" as a TIS-100 that anyone would recommend?

I finally might be giving TIS-100 another shot as it is Sunday and all :)



There's Rocksmith. It's essentially Guitar Hero just with a real guitar. So you do actually learn to play the instrument.


Yep. My favorite games are pretty much: anything by Zachtronics, Rocksmith 2014.

Rocksmith does have its annoyances at times, though (the note recognition isn't perfect, so if you don't play absolutely perfectly it's going to miss notes occasionally, making the more difficult songs very hard to 100%).


Rocksmith looks really cool, I will check it out - thanks a lot for sharing!


Just found this article by coincidence, linking here for future reference:
