How to Play
Gbloink! is an interactive musical game. As the balls move around the screen and collide with the walls and blocks, they play musical notes. You can control the speed of each ball, and the instrument, volume and note-length of each corresponding synth.
Click and drag on the canvas to add blocks that the balls will bounce off of. This lets you create unique layouts that influence how the music evolves.
Click along the colored bars to change parameters for each ball. Further to the left is "lower" (e.g., slower for speed, quieter for volume). The "Instrument" bar lets you choose from 127 different sounds for each ball.
Experiment with different combinations of instruments, scales, and layouts to create your own unique musical patterns!
