Inspiration

SAXOPHONE + HACK = HAXOPHONE!

What it does

It's a horizontal scrolling rhythm game to teach players to sight read musical notation, while practicing the fingerings of an actual saxophone, but on your keyboard!

How we built it

react, p5.js, html, javascript, pure dedication and hard work (and suffering around the clock)

Challenges we ran into

Implementing a game aspect into this with p5.js turned out to be quite difficult. We also had a lot of problems with react and p5.js.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Getting the keyboard implemented, and learning react!

What we learned

Sleep is one of the most important things in a hackathon, this project was quite difficult and the lack of sleep further made it worse. We also learned that react doesn't work well with the type of program we were making, which took a big chunk of development time to try and maneuver around it.

What's next for Haxophone

We want to make a 3d printable controller to teach it better, as well as a more stable implementation.
