The "geek" in the title is definitely a lie. I can think of an entire series of fitting expletives to replace it, though.

I made you a theme song: https://underscore.audio/s/cmp_f6c34ae4-bb4/geek_fighter_the... It’s adaptive, so can evolve with gameplay. Happy to work with you to make it awesome Disclaimer: I’m building Underscore :)

Interesting product. Are you really using Fable 5 to generate sounds? FYI, in Chrome for Android, the only way to hide those bottom sheets is to tap the handle. Grabbing and sliding them down, reloads the page, which is a little annoying.

I know right? I think in the age of AI, we call it taste ( or, less charitably, minimal human involvement in creation of this app took place ).

I created a gamelan sequencer with it. I intended on using samples but it went ahead and created a bunch of synthesized instruments in javascript with the right (ish) overtones, in the right tuning system, it was pretty crazy. 3d instruments animation with 3d audio positioning.

edit: maybe i should post it to HN
