Trombone Champ (yes, it's exactly what you think)

[Mars]

This would be great on iPad.

[TheFixx]

Those videos were funny and it reminded me of a certain Vuvuzela covers video. We need a rhythm version of this as we'd all get near perfect scores!

My wife said it sounded like I was being unkind to a duck.

There's not been a lot of talk about The Other Stuff that's in the game, it feels like. I've unlocked a few things, and while I don't want to spoil anything, I'm definitely getting a Pony Island/Inscryption vibe, in that there's way more to discover than just high quality tooting action.

I'm not sure she found it nearly as funny but I broke down in tears laughing at the first video while showing my wife.

Showed my wife the videos and she cracked up, too. Trombones are just intrinsically funny, man. Parp!

If ever there was a game that screaming out to have to have the theme tune to Johnny Briggs on it, this it.

has it got the Johnny Briggs theme?

Dammit didn’t see this until after I posted . Doesn’t make it any less true though 

[Yiggy]

The tunes are great fun to play. They have worked in some quirky card mechanics into it as well. It’s well worth checking out the card system and clicking on things that look clickable.

I don’t know that it would be. At least some of the fun is just how slightly uncontrollable the mouse pointer is.

No giant plastic trombone peripherals no sale.

Oh my fucking Christ

[LeighCb]

I only just noticed all of the spit shooting out of the end of the trombone as you toot. 

[michael]

And the fart during Also Sprach Zarathustra?

[Nobuo's Organ]

There are some proper bangers in this, I've had the ska track in my head all weekend. I have to cross my hands (right on key presses, left on the mouse) to get the note timing right, which just adds to the fun.

[merrychan]

This is absolutely incredible.

You folks have found

right? 

[jonathanhoey]

@Yiggy How about a spoiler tag eh? Thanks

[Petrousgyre]

Great fun this. Been playing with a Wacom tablet, makes it a bit easier to track but rhythm is just as tricky. My mother-in-law loves it!

Always make sure to oil your trombone- you don't want it getting rusty...

 

I had to stop playing this after about an hour of smiling my face off as my mouse arm was cramping. Playing it in VR sounds like a much better way to look like an idiot in front of my family

[Yiggy]

Update: New trombone track alert and it's a goodun. 

 

 

[Yiggy]

So good I posted it twice.

Well, about that:

 

 

[bradigor]

@Siri

 

What controller drop e are you using? My son got this and we are playing on the deck, but up is down and down is up. It's messing with our heads. 

 

Tried gyro but bit too sensitive and my deck gradually ends up finishing at an angle

 

Also, it has good chunky visuals so decent for me to see.

I haven't played recently, but I was trying to use an incredibly sensitive trackpad setting so I can rock my thumb for doots.

 

I think half the charm of the game is playing poorly, though, so like fuck if I know how to be good at the game
