Found some time to play with RP-8 again! Discovered that I had new thoughts on drum sound variety. I especially wish the alternate (yellow) kick and snare were more distinct, and the percussion channel (retuned kick, can act like a tom) might be better as a second FM drum.
Thinking back on all this I better understand the pain I feel to see science under devastating attack here. It’s not just about my livelihood or my university. It’s about my identity. And it’s about a pursuit that I see as standing along with art, literature, and music as among our highest callings.

I’ve had to resort to transcoding them to video, unfortunately.
Thank you for the kind words! I've occasionally thought about making a console version. I think I'd have to remove a lot of song mode features, and I'm not sure what I'd do about saving and loading, since those both need the clipboard... But it could still happen someday!
That’s exactly what I do when I post them! Happy to hear I’m not alone
I don't think I've introduced RP-8 here before? RP-8 is a #pico8 demake of the classic synth ReBirth RB-338. 128x128 pixels packed with synths, drums, and FX.
Does virtual analog in 8 bit 5kHz mono make sense? Maybe not, but I still think it's fun!
You can get RP-8 for free at luchak.itch.io/rp8.

Right? Most of the earlier drafts were gravity, which was also fun but much less cute.

I saw Zep posting with the tag and felt like I had to join in! :) I'm hoping to see more of them show up.
