itch.io

further playing around, I think there would be space on the sound & pattern screens to add a title and tab select control?  

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/controls/tab-controls

This could let you easily switch between the 2 screens for a given voice.  Also the mechanic of moving the DPAD from the sound & pattern center areas out to the bottom controls for BPM & pattern select might be able to be accomplished just with the dpad?  similar to if you were to code the tab control, just press up an extra time to get up there.   

I'm having trouble getting out of the mixer screen, I had to hold dpad right and crank backwards and eventually it popped out.  

another idea, maybe make a  button/item at the bottom of both pattern & sound screens for a given voice so you can switch between the two without needing to jump back out to the main screen?

I don't understand the pattern copy/paste mechanism for notes.  I can get it to copy directly from an adjacent slot but i don't know how to copy to non-adjacent slots.  Maybe change it to press B to copy, long press B to paste?  Add something on the long press like a count down circle that says paste <slot> with the countdown in the upper left (obviously way faster than this example, maybe 750ms - 1second hold?):  https://codepen.io/zebateira/pen/VvqJwm

This app hits a lot of the Pocket Operator type features.  I really like how you've laid everything out.  Once you get over the learning curve of the controls, there is quite a bit of functionality here and it looks like a really promising app.

I'm going to try to transpose a song and make a pattern for real, but it will take me a little bit as i'm not all that musical

Some control function ideas:

1. on the synth/pattern & drum/pattern screens.  Maybe hold "A" + DPAD left, right make it jump by an octave instead of having to up, down note by note to get to where you want to be.  (same on BPM for both drums and pattern jump by BPM 5 or 10 with "A" + DPAD left, right and keep .1 with up/down) 

2. the crank up or down controls to move between home screen and down a menu seems to take more cranking that I would expect.  On my app, I built in a mechanism to "screen swipe" (although mine works with the dpad,  the x value to swipe in/out could be tied to the crank change to make it work similarly).  perhaps code this mechanic to slide the screen in via the crank to it is more obvious what the crank is doing as you transition a screen?  (see example here (although the gif is way slower than actual device takes 250ms....if you want the source i can share it w/ you, just msg me on the PD forum):  https://devforum.play.date/t/sawtooth-a-chiptune-music-player-devlog/13344

Just a heads up, there is already a Playdate game called Yacht for PD which is a Yahtzee type dice game:  https://nkorth.itch.io/yacht

I love it!  Maybe add some kind of health recharge variance for certain kills (change the skier's shirt colors or something to show how valuable they are), and a multiplier for chaining within x seconds or multi kill multiplier for ground pounds off the jumps.

I’ve been playing on switch but apparently also own it on itch.io through the Ukraine bundle.  I’ve completed “Rite of the Mountain” and am working towards collecting gold for the final world.  This game is really good.  Thanks for putting it out into the world!

Thanks for making this game.  I like it a lot.  Feature request, can you copy the art style of the gameboy tetrominos or apply some pattern to the blocks?  I keep getting confused between the "L" and "J" blocks when they are all the same 1 bit.

@DanB91 ...this worked for me.  Thanks!

On OSX Big Sur.  I unzip crosscode-new-osx.zip, double click on CrossCode.app.  I get a message:

You do not have permission to open the application "CrossCode.app"

it looks like ~/Contents/MacOS/nwjs is not executable.  chmodding +x  made it so and the app launches but then crashes.  I suspect other files in the package have messed up permissions that did not get preserved via the zip?
