If you put to notes RIGHT next to each other it will sound bad! This is fine in some cases, but don’t do it a lot!
3rd tip, GOOD instrument choice
Some instruments are higher, lower, and quieter than others
If you use a bunch of cats in the high sections it will probably sound annoying and hurt your ears because of how high the sound is, also the fish instrument is 1 octave lower I’m pretty sure, and the cat is 1 octave higher, the burger is also 1 octave lower (preeeeetty sure) plus since the fish has a slight delay, using the, for eighth notes won’t sound that well. And the duck instrument is REALLY loud and also has a kinda delay/echo or something I can’t really describe. So using it a lot may also hurt someone’s ears.
This is mainly my opinion on making songs but I feel like these tips are alright. Correct me if I’m wrong on some of them
So guys, I’ve been deciding that I should start learning more about MakeCode blocks programming and the basics of game making. Does anyone know of any good skill maps, courses, or whatever to help me learn more about these skills? (And no, im not asking you to teach me, but it’s fine if you want to… )
I’d say first have a game idea in mind or something you want to make, something small, then try making it yourself and see how it ends up. When you’re done post it on the forums and ask for feedback. Myself and many others can point out things that you’re doing good or could do better.
Or you could go the route I went where I taught myself by watching streams, and looking at other people’s code and see how I could implement it into my own projects. I never once used a built in makecode tutorial or skillmap, but that’s just how I learned. Just do what you feel helps you learn the most and you’ll be a lot better at coding in no time!
Yes, yes I do.
Your tips are also good, though your information is a little off on the instrumentation since a good deal of how it can work is largely dependent on usage.
@Allegory_Cheese As for your question, each measure is forced to have 4 beats, so 4 measures makes it 16 total beats, or 4 measures of 4/4. Making it 3 measures of 4 beats gives you 12 beats, or 4 measures of 3/4. My new song on Free Music, Heart-Watch! includes some 3/4 sections in case you want to hear it in action.
do you play piano?
