Context: There is some Maths that goes into deriving a musical scale. Some people don't agree on all the maths, and there are two large camps, Equal Temperament and Just Intonation, which yield slightly different scale tunings.

The math that goes into making a drum beat sound nice is similar to the principle behind a Just Intonation scale. Basically, it's nice when drumbeats line up (like in a rhythm!) Applying "Equal temperament" would make a beat sound bad and quickly off-sync, only to sync up in, like, years.

Nobody would ever apply "equal temperament" in the frequency space of "beat frequency". (Like, how often you hit your drum.) The "some asshole" here is entirely imaginary. It barely makes sense, and it only makes sense in an extremely abstract way. Rather than slapping three slaps for every two, you'd slap 2.996614 (... repeating of course) beats for every two. (In fact, the only reason 'equal temperament' works and doesn't sound awful is that instruments have timbre, i.e. stuff in the frequency space other than their pure tone. Or at least, that's why I assume it is.)

Anyways, Bach released two books, "The Well Tempered Clavier". Bach was known for having all these fucked up (see: cool) ideas about musical scales. He was really a kind of hipster, and probably discovered microtonal scales before realizing they're garbage. (jk i love my microtonal scales) Anyways, the Well Tempered Clavier came in two books, WTC 1 and WTC 2, which is kind of funny, but it also came with its own tuning, the "Well Tempered" tuning.

This is extremely funny because that was in opposition to the "meantone temperament". Like, "well tempered" versus "meantoned" sounds like someone describing a child or dog.

This is all made even more bonkers hilarious because I don't believe anyone, in the world, can tell the difference unless they're either (1) Bach or (2) listening through an oscilloscope. (Edit, or (3) the instrument is a flute or pure sine wave, but who tunes a flute? That's impossible.)

thank you for leaving this up because i love it

we might also consider changing the url to crouton.net

cheers

nevermind it ends the game if you get a game over? come on what year is it

this is one of the best games i have ever played

i thought i didnt like sonic

inspiration sites:

• https://crouton.net/

The onlt issue with it being ugly is that my CSS skills are limited. But the static site is pure HTML, CSS, and a teensy bit of JavaScript (for rendering LaTeX).

I'd write pure HTML but I just get in a flow better with Markdown

If you want to go the self-hosted route, there are a number of static-site generators out there with many themes available. As mentioned in this thread, Jekyll is one of them!

I can't recommend one because I ended up making one my own (just a script that uses pandoc to convert markdown to html) but it's ugly lol.

Even if BotW2 does not improve on BotW1 in any regard, it'll still be a very fun and good game
