Man, this looks great!

A fortuitous thing for me as well, as I've been starting to look for a trainer like this just know?

Been playing the guitar for a long time for now and I know my basic theory... but give me a keyboard I takes me a while to figure out my scales, chords, progressions and so on. Now that I've some time to get back to music... and sitting in front of a DAW oftentimes a keyboard is what I got.

So it was an instabuy for me (via itch.io), thank you and I'll follow the github repo as well to keep me up to date.

Haven't seen anyone else mention this in the comments, but Synthesia is something I used in the past https://synthesiagame.com/

There's a free trial, but the $29-39 for the full-featured paid edition is well worth it. I was able to connect a 88 key electronic keyboard, load my favorite custom MIDI files (when I could find them) and try to play along with it.

Not knocking anything you've done here OP :) just pointing out another one you can check out for features etc, and also if anyone else is looking for something similar.

I was wondering who that may have been! Thank you very much

There'll be an update coming later today
