I finally have a complete version of Musical Squares. Complete does not mean finished though, expect massive updates and much more functionality.

Currently, there are 5 notes (pentatonic scale) and 3 percussion instruments. Soon I’ll add all 12 notes (and maybe 2-3 octaves) and 5-10 percussion sounds.

How to play with:
You can throw the notes around, or remove them by dragging them out of the main stage. You can also add more notes by pressing on the colors on either side of the main stage. Lastly, you can also use two fingers and make squares bigger or smaller =)

Hopeful Updates:
-Add all 12 possible notes (maybe 2-3 octaves worth)
-Add quantization somehow so the music stays in times no matter how you throw the blocks.
-Add sliders for gravity, friction, bounce, and more.
-Add presets for cool sounding sound scape startups.
-Add music library that can be changed.

Have fun, make cool sounds, and let me know how things go! =)

This does work with the TUIO Simulator v1.4 =)

Thanks both of you! =) I found a bug actually that needs to be fixed already heh. Hopefully I can fix it soon =) It’s still usable though.

I fixed 1 major bug and added the ability to throw the “new” squares directly from the sidebar to the stage (instead of the new squares loading in the center of the stage). Have fun! Comments and thoughts welcome. =)

The download is up in the original link.
