Ugotsta Beat Box

Hi everyone!

I threw together this tiny drum machine project and am posting it here in case anyone else might be interested. It's not a game, though I've been having a good think through various game ideas surrounding drum sequencing.

It's just a basic drum sample sequencer similar to early versions of Fruityloops. Drum samples are easily replaceable and the project file makes it relatively simple to add more sounds and tracks.

And that said, here's the capx:

And I've got this posted up at an experimental blog along with a demonstration as follows:

Hope this helps or entertains someone.

Have fun!

I remember making some music in the playstation music maker (cant remember the title).

I really like this. Thanks for including the cap.

Any plans on taking it further?

Hi GenkiGenga,

I'd personally love to take it further but it's unfortunately limited to sampled sounds, rather than real-time synthesis. Possibly, Google's audio API might fix that! :)

Apart from that though, I'm working out ideas for a sequencing based game, something I've not yet seen done. The trick is making it fun and usable so it doesn't just gather dust.

Cheers,

DavidM

Ugotsta - I downloaded the beatbox but it no longer seems to work, have you tested it recently?

Hey luvleggs, sorry for the delay but I've just tested using the latest Construct 2 version and it works great for me using Google Chrome.

Which browser(s) have you tried?

Also, were you able to load the project file? Was it able to load but not actually run the project?

I actually figured it out by rewriting by hand and making the images larger. Example below
