Gioioso! A Weird Music Game For NDS

One of the entries to the NeoFlash Summer Coding Competition for this year is the musical game Gioioso! A Weird Music Game which was made by Tassu. For one thing, this game is far from being a demo, since there are several complete stages to challenge players everywhere, not to mention an actual background story!

As the author himself has stated, the story goes:

“Dr. Loopy Discord has invented a horrible machine that can materialize music into small living balls called the Riffballs. He calls the machine Retro Resonance. Then by accident the machine escaped from Dr. Discord and started to furiously materialize all the music in the world into cute little riffballs.

But the riffballs can not live in the solid world, they can only live when they are in the form of sound waves.

So all the music in the world is dying! Dr. Discord calls for you, the player, to help him save all music in the world.”


The aim of the game is to save the riffballs by dragging one with your stylus and then bumping it into another of the same color. They then burst back into their original musical form.

At the moment, the game has four survival modes, and the author has noted that he plans to add a story mode as well.
