Secret Karaoke Madness
A downloadable game for Windows and Linux
Ran very short on time, not nearly as polished as I'd like, but it's something.
Very smol rhythm game themed around Pippa's Secret Karaoke.

This is a solid game jam submission. Amazing job. How did you synch the notes with the song speed and everything?
Right, the way I did that was I first transcribed the midi data in Ardour using a combination of the sheet music and the waveform of the Vox vocal. Then I used a python script (included in the .love) to record the midi data (since Ardour didn't want to export it with BPM information) to a CSV of midi note values, start, and end times in seconds. Then I converted that to a lua table I could import in Love2D. Syncing it, I start a timer at the same time I start playing the music, and I subtract the timer value from the start and end times. When rendering, I have a pixels_per_second conversion factor, which I also use for collision detection and culling notes off-screen.
If you want to look at the code, everything's in the .love, which is basically a zip file of all the code and assets and whatnot that can be read by the love2d interpreter.
I think I managed 1429 because the game closed after some time, after the song finished. Not sure if it was a crash because I was violently playing around with the shifted pippa vocals. I think I could've held down the mouse button the whole time since there didn't seem to be a penalty for missing. Good job overall!
Yeah, no penalty for missing notes. Definitely not something I wanted to fit in there, but ran out of time... Same for the score end screen always crashing.
There's a lot more I would have liked to do with this, but I was pretty dang pressed for time trying to do the whole thing on Sunday, since my work week overlapped with the first 3 days of the jam. And then I spent a good half of the time I had left transcribing the midi from the sheet music...
I really appreciate you having a go at it! Thanks for checking it out! :D
