Here's something fun me and @acerbt have been working on over the past week or so.

[acerbt@tweesecake.social]

@Jonathan @MewProjects have you tried all the modes? This has like 5 different bop its already.

[jonathan@dragonscave.space]

@acerbt @MewProjects Yes I have. Can't wait for more.

[acerbt@tweesecake.social]

@Jonathan @MewProjects had you ever heard that uk bop it extreme before? They're super rare.

[jonathan@dragonscave.space]

@acerbt @MewProjects I have not. Do you have one?

[acerbt@tweesecake.social]

@Jonathan @MewProjects I don't have one, but I have a recording of one.

[randomfire@fwoof.space]

@Bri @MewProjects Is this a different one than the one you put out here last week?

[bri@fwoof.space]

@RandomFire @MewProjects Yes.

[randomfire@fwoof.space]

@Bri @MewProjects Good enough. In which case, I already have it.

[bri@fwoof.space]

@RandomFire @MewProjects Unless you downloaded it just now or last night, no you don't.

[randomfire@fwoof.space]

@Bri @MewProjects oh, in that case, I'll go get it.

[pixelate@tweesecake.social]

@RandomFire @Bri @MewProjects Oh this is just what I needed. Maybe I can get it working on Linux or Android or something.

[randomfire@fwoof.space]

@pixelate @Bri @MewProjects It already has an android version.

[pixelate@tweesecake.social]

@RandomFire @Bri @MewProjects Well holy crap that's awesome!

[pixelate@tweesecake.social]

@RandomFire @Bri @MewProjects Holy crap the memories!

[pixelate@tweesecake.social]

@RandomFire @Bri @MewProjects Oh, so I had the Extreme 2. I also remember this bop it guitar game thinggie. And Top it! That was kinda cool.

[acerbt@tweesecake.social]

@pixelate @RandomFire @Bri @MewProjects nujam guitar is awesome. It's too bad that pretty much all of them are eventually going to meet the same fait due to band design, that being the sensors are all going to fail with no easy way to repair them due to the way it was built.

[pixelate@tweesecake.social]

@acerbt @RandomFire @Bri @MewProjects Jam guitar? Is that the toy I had? Or is this a new thing?

[acerbt@tweesecake.social]

@pixelate @RandomFire @Bri @MewProjects It' called the nujam guitar. It has a spring loaded slider grip on the neck, and a flick bar on the body, and the neck could twist. It played liek bop it in the regular mode, but also had a full rhythm mode with predefined patterns that effectively made a full performance if you did them all.

[pixelate@tweesecake.social]

@acerbt @RandomFire @Bri @MewProjects Oh wow, that's pretty cool!

[acerbt@tweesecake.social]

@pixelate @RandomFire @Bri @MewProjects of course, it was designed by the inventor that invented bop it. It was popular enough, but one major problem set them back. Basickly, when the first shipment swent out in mid 2002, there was a problem where apparently all of the top sensors on those were defective. As a result, hasbro had to lose a bunch of money to use air delivery to get new ones in before the holidays that year. Also, the fact that they have the top of the neck sticking out the top of the package so you can feel it, along with the fact that there are 2 wide open slots for the slider to run along, air and other stuff can and has gotten into those over the years, so the sensor contacts get tarnished, durty, etc, and there's not a way toi fix it. This is a problem because this kind of thing causes double triggering, and the nujam guitar had no kind of debounce time logic built in, os you could do a command but have it double sense in the split second as you do that command, and you'd fail anyway.
