Great write up, guys. There's some good advice in there, especially the Feature Creation bit. If only more projects had such discipline! I found it interesting to see how you made certain decisions and great to see which articles you used as reference.

I'm glad to hear the project will continue after the competition. I wonder if this could evolve into something bigger than a game. Perhaps an arcade game music community for indie game devs...


I'm pretty sure you guys owe my employer for several hours of time I've spent playing with eightbitbeats over the past few days.


haha don't get fired!


This has to be the best weekend project ever. I wish I had seen it time to vote. Great call on the feature bucket, I can't even imagine how many ideas must have come out of your individual and collective heads. I thought of a few handfuls just after 1 minute of playing with it.


Wow. Love the project


Thanks a lot! It was a bit unexpected, but we plan on building out the features a lot once judging is over.


Nice write up.


Thanks crenshaw. In the near future, we plan to do a little more behind the scenes as well as a few more in depth technical write ups that focus on specific aspects of the project. Sounds crazy, but there was a lot to talk about for a short 48 hour period and we had to cut it down for this post.


so proud of you guys, great work! =D


thanks for all the support man!


Epic.


Thanks, cardoni. Let's jam!
