Its not finished. And i switched to turbowarp halfway through. This is unfinished but it contains game mechanics, music and custom editor. Turbowarp version has menu, custom music (this couldnt really be done legally or without a actual server so this is where my project failed), delta-time support, working level skip and barely any bugs compared the scratch version.

When do you think we will begin setting the groundworks for the mechanics and such? Or rather add tasks to the “To Do” tab in trello

Summary:
1: One singular sprite for one singular purpose
2: REMOVE THE STRAY BLOCKS

Organization is one of the most important things in scratch because if your project is cluttered and impossible to read you can't get any help and it will make your project seem less manageable.

Two of the most important things when it comes to organization is 1: Compactness. You need to make your project compact since that will make it cleaner to read. The most common mistake when it comes to compactness is making multiple different sprites that all are about or have something to do with each other. You should always only use one singular sprite for one singular purpose. (Player_Hitbox) and (Player) should be in the same sprite!!! Just use clones and some simple code management to separate the two and your code is much better. 2: Removing stray blocks. What I mean by that is for example when you finish some code and there is a lot of random stuff which doesn't do anything around the code you should remove it since it makes your project less laggy and easier to navigate!

As soon as… we finalize our team and game name. Then I'll request an icon from one of our artists, add this collab to the collab directory, and while that goes on, we can talk about mechanics and game genres. So as soon as we figure out what we're called and what the name is called.

Everyone, please suggest ideas! This is a collaborative effort, and (I can see you guys actually like “Kokoro Beats” haha) we still need a team name. And to come to a consensus with the game name. I'd like all the votes and ideas in by… Monday the 19th, if possible. It's only like a one-minute process, so…

HundenBasse

Yeah because i looked into the reference game and it was for mobile. So is the game going to be mobile only? I dont see a way to transform it to fit pc unless you use the mouse

Maybe you could lock the mouse the the X axis so that it didnt matter how much you moved your mouse up or down.

I just came up with a random idea to put into team name ideas, what about ‘Soundwave productions’ or something like that?

I'm thinking actually to make this PC friendly first, and then maybe mobile controls. The keys will be the standard “ASDF” and “JKL:”

Nice! That sounds good

Just need others for their feedback.

And to everyone in general, the “Backlog” list is for ALL the tasks that we need to do. Once they're ready to be worked on, they'll be moved to “To Do”. When being worked on, move the tasks to “Doing” and if you're working on it, add yourself to the card. These tasks will also need a basic DOD for themselves. If you were working on something but something else came up that disabled you from working on your task, move the card to “Blocked” and in the comments add a brief reason why. With blocked items, we need to make sure that we clear the path so development can continue freely. Any questions or comments?

And one more thing: is anyone here familiar with Zoho Cliq or Github?

It's explained on the first page. It's the platform we're using for project management.

The base game “Project Sekai: Colorful Stage!” can't be played with keys tho? Since you need to slide with your finger between keys? Or should this be more like osu!mania.
Or have i misunderstood

Well, this game will be similar and very inspired-off-of Project Sekai, but not an exact clone. And besides, I think it might be possible to have a mobile-friendly and PC-friendly interface. Probably have touch-sensitive keys in the same positions that correspond with the keyboard keys. And as for the notes that slide across the screen, that'd… be really hard if not impossible, but that's okay! We can just make different notes that are just as fun.
