Posted project update #3Funding unsuccessful, who cares, so what?
Post CommentHi everyone,
So, as you all know the Guitar Games did not get successfully funded on KickStarter. It was a good experience creating the campaign, attending Maker Faire, and meeting people who were interested in the project. Thanks especially to those of you pledged your support.
I've answered a few supporters' questions directly already, but I wanted to spam everyone, and post to KickStarter, that this project is not dead, far from it. I'm still going to create Guitar Games and put it on the App Store, but it won't necessarily be as beautiful or as feature complete as I would like on launch day. It also may take a little longer to get there. If you're a supporter who has an iPad, midi connection kit, and a Rock Band 3 Guitar / game controller or MIDI guitar, I can make Guitar Games, in its current state available to you to beta test for me on https://testflightapp.com/ so sign up for that and let me know that you'd like to be involved. When I fully support generic guitars, I will post updates here again.
Thanks again to everyone,
Aure

commented on a projectI'll keep everyone posted about the availability of Guitar Games either as another fund raising campaign, or bypassing that and just releasing a less grand version of it on the iTunes App Store.

commented on a projectI could only import MIDI or Guitar Pro once the tablature was synched with the actual recording which either takes good beat detection or a little human intervention. Tab text is even more problematic because it does not really contain any reliable rhythmic information. One of the easiest things to do is to slow down the track until you can play, it record that performance, and then speed it back up. This is all within the realm of possibility once the project has gained traction.

Posted project update #2Guitar Games At Maker Faire
Post CommentWe had a great time showing Guitar Games to thousands of people at Maker Faire and over two hundred of them gave the games the whirl. We demoed the chord game with some new songs and the new fretboard mechanics that allows you to see what you're playing on a scrolling guitar neck.
The response was overwhelmingly positive with the most common reaction being "It's like Guitar Hero For Real Guitar!"
Thanks to everyone who came by! Here's some of our favorite clips from the show.

commented on a projectThanks Ann, I agree with your commentary on your blog. Let's hope I can fund a lot more grubstakers out there.

commented on a projectI got a lot of requests for having it work with bass and I think I could do something with your set up. One game could test you to match a transcribed bass line or be expected to arpeggiate the notes of the chord in the bass line in order to get points. Sound good?
