At the risk of repeating what others have said, it's a very relaxing experience, and I like the simple esthetic. I was just not convinced by the mapping of the keys to the chord (but maybe that's just because I have an azerty keyboard), otherwise, nice job!

That's very nice of you, I was suggesting that might be the reason I found the placement a little strange but I might be wrong and it might be as intended.
But if bindings are location based and not so much whatever config the user has then it's no issue. I made my game submission in GameMaker and wasn't sure about it so I just went with "E", "R", "T", "Y" thinking that it should be the same layout on most keyboards.
very relaxing had a great time with it, It's not really game related but I also like how the game's theme is incorparated into the whole page, something your game really benefits from.

Music Maker '95That was a lovely experience, I also appreciate the nod to Christmas with the music selection. I want to second the keyboard controls feedback, it felt very unintuitive at first but could eventually see myself getting used to them. I would’ve loved to have seen more work done on the visual side of things. I love what you did with the mouse controls as well. Great job.

Forest is ElectricVery relaxing and polished experience. I like how the echo control works and structures how you play in a call-and-response manner. However, I don’t think it listens to notes played by the mouse, and the keyboard controls can take some getting used to with the root on the H key. Nice work!

Project EphemeraThe chimes sound lovely! Very relaxing while staring at the star patterns. I also like the mix of mouse and keys to trigger sounds. Some ideas could be to expand the selection of sounds and even take the player on a journey through space with some kind of evolving background.
