FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
DanielX.net Paint Composer arrives on Steam Early Access
Ferndale, Washington - January 30th, 2020 DanielX.net Paint Composer is a love letter to the genre with the nostalgia factor turned up to 11. The gameplay is reminiscent of the composer mode in the classic 1992 SNES hit Mario Paint, but with more instruments, audio effects, and greatly increased range. The character animations are simple and delightful, guaranteed to put a smile on your faces as they sing you the song of their people.
The interface is simple enough for players of all ages. Choose from 20+ instruments to create rhythms and melodies. Each instrument is represented by an intriguing character that does a little dance when it plays its sound. Adjust the tempo anywhere from a solemn 40 BPM to a happy hardcore-esque 190BPM or beyond. Players can publish and share their creations instantly with clickable URLs. The songs can be exported in both .wav and .mp3 formats.
An early version of the application was featured in the Journal of Literature and Art Studies, called “the most accessible remake of the music mode to date” by Dr. Christopher Hopkins. Another delighted player says: “The ease of use is amazing, and the program has generally been adapted extremely well for a mouse and keyboard. Small things, like the little "cache" of patterns you've copied at the top left, make a massive difference. There's also a surprising amount which can be done with the soundbytes, and you can play with it for hours on end if you're interested in making music - sometimes even if you're not.”
“It's a simple, yet powerful tool for music creation. I haven't spent an hour in any music class and all my friends think the songs that I made with this program are good.” - Anthony
“I’ve always had a soft spot for creative tools and games. Our creativity is what makes us humans, it’s what separates us from the animals,” says creator Daniel X Moore. “There is an inherent joy in filling a screen with cute characters and watching them sing and dance in time to music… for a brief moment the universe is in order, things make sense, time itself stops, and all our troubles seem to melt away.”
