>> What's New in Version 1.1: <<

We've released an all new song, "Krishna Raga" by Adham Shaikh!

Krishna Raga is an amazing world groove blend of fusion, dub, world beat, tech house, ambient and jazz. It's one of the most beautiful and trippy songworlds we've created!

We've also updated, cleaned up, fixed bugs, and all around enhanced the game from the feedback we have received from our players. Thank you and keep the suggestions coming!

 
>> BECOME ENTRANCED <<

Enter the luminous worlds hidden in the sound of music! In these Songworlds, sounds made by different instruments form unique shapes, called Glyphs. Glyphs fly in mesmerizing formations gathering energy from the Songworld.

As each Glyph zooms around the world, the Halo surrounding it gradually collapses, signaling that it's almost time to touch. Touch it during the flash and the Glyph blooms into a beautiful splash of color and energy!

Some Glyphs appear together in Patterns. Touch the Patterns in sequence to release even more energy more and beautiful visuals. 

Tracers are Glyphs that are created from special parts of the music. Watch for Glyphs that have tails like a comet. Tracers add extra challenge, so they give the most energy and blooms of all.

Songworlds can be revisited any time, so take as long as you need to master each one. Be as playful as you want!

>> BEAUTIFUL MUSIC FROM BEAUTIFUL MUSICIANS <<

>> HELPFUL HINTS <<

Sounds made by different instruments form unique Glyph shapes. Glyphs represent notes from any instrument in a song, not just the rhythm section, so listen well! Use headphones to hear the most subtle sounds. Touch just after the Halo meets the Glyph's edges, when the Glyph expands and flashes in time with the music.

Patterns represent a string of notes from the same instrument, all of the glyphs in that pattern will look and move alike. The first one to enter is the first you tap. It's helpful to watch a Pattern once and listen to figure it out.

Tracers represent long musical events, like smooth vocal melodies. For a Tracer, you touch and keep pressing to follow it across the screen. Each Songworld will generate its own style of Tracer, once you learn the flight path of each, you'll become a master.

As you progress in the Songworld, you'll explore almost all of the different instruments that make up the music and switch from one to another frequently. Keep in mind that some instruments happen between drum beats. Let your mind expand, listen, and watch to follow some of the more subtle sounds.

If you fall behind, just relax and watch for a while, or go after only the Glyphs that seem obvious to you. If you miss a glyph and hit the wrong spot, you'll see a red ring where you touched and lose a bit of energy. No worries!
