Just wanted to mention that I did catch the stream! I kind of dig the svg drawing and the spotlight motif, gives it a neat starkness to it. I'm curious if you tried any other animation for the instruments? Oh, it took me all stream to remember the name of it, but as a similar program I wanted to recommend you look at Sid Meier's C.P.U. Bach for the 3D0 if you've never heard of it https://youtu.be/IbGO0a5P0M8?t=81 (more info https://hg101.kontek.net/cpubach/cpubach.htm).

Thanks for catchin' it on stream! There was supposed to be an animation for the Woodblock when that instrument played, but I wasn't able to get it working in time before the deadline. I spent way more time on the music generator than the frontend, and my original plans to have this be more of a rhythm game you choose not to play turned into a virtual band that'll make new songs. I'll definitely be working on this more, and better animations is on that list - stuff like them bobbin' about a bit and some note particles.
I had no idea Sid Meier put out a music generator, and on the 3DO! I see what you mean by animations, because that's pretty nice animation they had on the instruments.
