I've released the first eight lessons of my new music theory tutorial, available here: https://bikibird.itch.io/music-theory. It's designed for people who want to make their own music for PICO-8 games, but feel they don't have the skill or talent to do so.
The tutorial provides an introduction to the basics of pitch, melody, harmony, rhythm and composition within the context of PICO-8. It explores music in a decidedly mathy way through a series of interactive demos that use spatial relations to connect sound to vision.
Only the parts of music theory that are relevant to PICO-8 are covered. No prior knowledge of music is assumed. There's no reading sheet music or needing to play an instrument.
More lessons will be coming in October.
I learned a ton from the tutorials you made. Your interactive approach to teaching with the carts is brilliant. Thank you!
Thanks, @8bit_gnosis, you made my day! I want you to know that I do plan to finish the tutorial series and you can expect some new lessons in about a month. You may be interested in PICO DAW in the meantime. https://www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=140734
