Mobile chiptune tracker thingy

Posted by Hypernova on March 28, 2015, 11:12 p.m.

Most of y'all know what is a tracker. Currently I am working on a mobile app (Android/Windows Phone) that creates chiptune (like Famitracker) using Game Maker: Studio.

Mm, it doesn't export. This is a nice little toy, but I've run into some little bugs. Like how tapping 'Preview' in just the right spot also decreases the volume, or how at times the button doesn't accurately play the sound that I'm looking for, until I de-select and re-select the row that I'm working with.

Also, consider renaming the channels from 0 to 4 to, well, 'Saw,' Tri,' 'Square,' 'Sine,' and 'Noise,' or something. It took me a second to get that the channel number dictated the wave patch.

I like it, but I do wish it were a teensy bit less difficult to work with (mostly in copy-and-paste respects), but I understand that this was made with being a very lightweight app in mind. Good job.

Well, I have got the problems fixed. Speaking about no export, Game Maker: Studio does not have enough functionality to perform that. It would be nice if there's a GML that do that.

Windows Phone version is already updated but I'll update PC version probably tomorrow. And possibly Android version this weekends.

Android version is here as well, right now it's available at Google Play Store!

I am expected to get it into Amazon App Store very soon. Right now Amazon is reviewing my app.

As for iOS? I assume Anarchy against Apple's strict rules!

Anyways feel free to share your creations if you're using PC version. The files will be saved at:
