The Hero meets friendly denizens of Prospect Part who help him learn to sing the parts of a song and break the curse of the Concert Grove Pavillion!

The character and item sprites were previously made by myself, as well as the sky background. I also used a number of tile sets and sound FX which are attributed in the game credits.

Very cute! A little hard for me to figure out the maps. I love the use of photos. I also enjoyed the classical music focus since I have a classical music project that uses many Game Boys!

Cute little adventure.

I really enjoyed how the pieces all came together and the integration of the gb camera shots was really cool.

I did run into a little bug where after learning (2) songs and returning to the starting area, the text "I don't know any songs yet." still appears every time you sing.

Great entry!

I almost gave up before spending good 15 minutes without finding anything!!

But as soon as I found the fist thing, I got super exited.

Really liked your game! What an ending!

Thanks!

I've played for some time but oonly found 2 songs, but I have a save state and will continue. I don't know how to move the rocks on the cave or where to use the sword. I felt it lacked music when started but then I understood the concept and it was great! Loved the sense of humor too

I've walked around the park a few times, but didn't manage to find any song parts? Just turtles, a cat and a statue of Lincoln? What am I missing?

there’s a section to the right of the stairs on the pavilion screen with the first song

Thank you for that little clue, haha.

This was a nice little adventure. Four funky friends with funky tunes. The ending was nice and wacky.

The game was a fun ride, I loved the idea and the interactions, I had some issues related to sound delays, but nothing that takes away from the purpose of the game.

You are my New friend

Unfortunately i had some troubles getting the sound to work the way I wanted :(

I see, I had problems with this also in production in my game. I think this is linked to the dialogue script, from what I understand it waits for the dialogue to advance to release the sound.

The riddles are okay and it was fun strolling through the park.

I just wish the music didn't loop when you play it.
I like the ending when all the people you met in the park helped you to perform your song.
Just wished for a more happier ending XD
