Sometimes, the total is greater than the sum of the parts. Tetris and Pong are classics, addictive and unshakable from their places in gaming history. TONG is the result of mixing the two, capitalizing on the essential qualities of each classic and adding new twists of its own to make an explosive chemical reaction out of it all.
Changes:
– Scaled to fullscreen with SDL_OMAP_LAYER_SIZE, thx to notaz sdl.

GMIDImonitor by Nedko Arnaudov is a GTK+ application that shows MIDI events. Ported to Pandora by cube48.
Further release notes:
To use this tool successfully you need to connect it via ALSA MIDI routing (a.k.a. ALSA sequencer). As there is no ALSA patchbay available for Pandora yet you need to use aconnect. It is contained in this PND for your convenience but you can also install it form Angstrom repo into NAND (it’s just about 6kB). After you launch the PND you’ll be instructed on how to connect the app to your MIDI source.

ASeqView is an ALSA sequencer user-client which works as event viewer. It visualizes received events, e.g. note-on/off, controls, pitch wheels, using bar graphs, as often seen in many sequencer programs. Using this viewer, even a simple command line sequencer like pmidi or playmidi1 becomes a cool one with graphical interface 🙂 Another feature of ASeqView is redirection of events. ASeqView can output the received events to subscription ports with some modification like channel mute or pitch change. Since this works as a real-time filter client, such modifications can be applied also in real-time without complexity.
