You pilot a Fighter Plane over a rainbow spectrum of enemy cities and blast them into smithereens. Your plane swoops lower and lower with each pass, kind of like space invaders only you are the invader. You can accelerate (turbo) which turns up the action, particularly when things get interesting as you progress through the spectrum and an Artillery ground unit starts defending the cities (again like space invaders in reverse). Watch your speed and timing, the ground unit will chase you and try to blast you down. It’s heavily armored but you can stun it for a brief respite if you hit it just right.
Make sure to grab the binary dated 7th September, as it fixes a flickering bug.

ToneMatrix is a 16-step drum machine. The Y (vertical) axis represents eight different sounds, and more than one can be played at a time. The X (horizontal) axis represents one measure in sixteenth-notes. Select a node on the grid with the D-pad and the X button, and that sound will be played in time. Press O to stop/ resume playing, and use /\ (triangle) to clear the grid. Press START to use the menu, and use the D-pad to select a menu item or change a value (like the tempo), and X (cross) to confirm your choice. Press SELECT for help.
