About NOTE

"I'VE DONE SOMETHING WONDERFUL" _ PLAY Mephistowaltz
Don't Need Language, like Music
I think ever artists were making new works that expanded the definition of meaning. This is why made Note : a composer and a note

Note : a composer and a note is an indie minimalist 2d platformer for every artist in the world. Player is both a composer and a note. This is the journey for composition with a unique mechanic. Player plays like playing the piano. It offers a thrill, fresh and meaning.

About a composer’s work and a note’s journey to achieve a composer and a note’s goal. A composer tried to make music that accurately showed humans, the world and their spiritual beliefs. A note is trying to find a way as dream. Whatever you can do or dream you can, begin it. Boldness has genius, power, and magic in it. (Johann Wolfgang von Goethe)

I assumed that this game had something to do with music theory or at least each platform would sound the specific note or something. It's just very simple platformer and it's lame.

NOTE: a Composer and a Note is a small experimental platformer that uses music, movement, and symbolism to create something noticeably different from a conventional action-focused game. Developed and published by PLAY Mephistowaltz, it revolves around the relationship between a composer and a single musical note. Its ambitions are more artistic than mechanical, presenting a journey concerned with creativity, dreams, humanity, and the search for meaning rather than building its identity around combat or complicated progression systems. The central concept is easily the game's most memorable feature. The player is associated with both the composer and the note, connecting the act of traversing the environment with the process of creating music. The composer wants to produce a piece capable of expressing ideas about people, the world, and spiritual belief, while the note travels in pursuit of its own dream. These ideas give even simple movement a metaphorical purpose. Instead of merely reaching the end of another platforming stage, progression represents another part of a larger creative journey. Music is therefore more than background decoration. The game connects its controls and …

I heard this game on the Facebook Indie game Forum. This game is made by a "one-man developer." Because of that, this game is very light and simple. When I first came across it, I thought it was just an arcade game. However, it was a misunderstanding. There was a clear puzzle in this game. Players have to break the path by solving this puzzle. I think the puzzles really go well with the game material, "Compose music" When you want to get your head together, I recommend this game. Your heart will heal. However, I think there is a need for improvement in this area. I can change the way my operating key before play the game... For better UX. I wish I could control the operating key inside the game. I'm looking forward to your next project. Because I think You have enough potential. I support your challenge. Thank you! ------------------------------------- 해당 게임의 소식은 페이스북 인디게임 포럼에서 처음 접했습니다. 들어보니 1인 개발자 분의 작품이더군요. 이 게임은 굉장히 가볍고, 심플한 게임이에요. 자칫 단순한 아케이드 게임이라고 생각할 수 있죠. 하지만 그렇게 생각하면 오산입니다. : > 이 게임엔 명백히 퍼즐이 존재하고, 우리 플레이어들은 퍼즐을 풀어나가며 나아가야합니다. 단순해보이는 이 아트웍과 사운드는 게임의 소재인 "작곡"과 꽤 잘 어울린다 생각합니다. 일상에 치이며 지쳐갈 때 한 번 쯤 접해보면 좋은 게임이라 생각합니다. 나름 힐링 게임이라고 생각해요. 하지만, 이 부분은 개선되었으면…

NOTE is an asset flipped (Corgi Engine) pretentious minimalist 2D pixel platformer where can pretend to make piano noises as you platform around what's supposed to be a mockup of a musical staff. Yeah whatever. Platforming is precision oriented and fairly badly done. There's a "phasing" gimmick as you can switch between phased platforms. From a technical perspective, the game doesn't meet basic minimum requirements that most PC gamers expect as standard. A choice was made to use obsolete, decades old retro pixel "art" as a substitute for contemporary PC graphics. It's unclear if this is due to lack of budget or talent, regardless, the overall visual quality of the game is extremely low as a result. There's an ugly screen filter meant to make the game look even more obsolete... like the game looks bad enough already, but they actually went out of their way to make it look worse. There's no way to turn this off. The game features extremely lazy, minimalist "art", of the type you normally expect to see in low effort Flash/browser games and mobile apps. Considering this is being evaluated as a PC game, having the graphics phoned in like this isn't going to result in a high q…
