Game Melody Oratorio is a DS homebrew application that teaches you how to play simple game melodies with a virtual piano.

Developed by Multiple: Option, it was released for the NEO Spring Coding Compo 2008 (GBA/NDS Game). In 2009, it was voted as one of the top 20 DS homebrews.

Installation

Requires a DS and a flash cart, such as a R4. The game will create a save file called gmo_save.sav on your flash cart.

If you find that saving does not work, please try manually patching the game with the appropriate DLDI patch for your flash cart.

User guide

Featured melodies include:

Super Mario Bros (Nintendo).
Sonic the Hedgehog (Sega).
Tetris (Nintendo).
Bubble Bobble (Taito).
The Legend of Zelda (Nintendo).

The game has two modes. Practice teaches you the melody in three stages using different visual clues.

Recital requires you to play the melody without any help. Do so correctly and you'll earn a Ribbon of Completion.

Controls

Stylus only.

-==User guide==
+==Known issues==
-It requires a Nintendo DS/Lite and a flash cart. Only tested on R4 Revolution. Runs in DeSmuME emulator but does not support saving (see Issues).
+Saving does not work in emulators (as of 2008/03). Just use the emulator's save state function, if it has it.
-===Saving===
+DS Nicknames that use non-Roman characters (such as Japanese kana) will be displayed incorrectly in Recital mode.
-This game allows you to save your progress via DLDI. On first play, the game will create the save file "gmo2_sav.sav" on your flash cart. If you find that saving does not work, please try manually patching the game with the appropriate DLDI patch for your flash cart. If it still doesn't work, you're out of luck. Please choose the "continue without saving" option on the initial menu, which will let you play the game in any case.
-==Known Issues==

-* Saving does not work in DeSmuME (as of 2008/03). May work in other emus (No$GBA, IDeaS), but haven't tried.
