Jams for days

Love it! Really surprised by the great design and animation - it’s super fun to jam with a bunch of monsters!
So Much Fun!!!

This app is so amazing and inventive. What a fun way to learn about music and explore. The art is just lovely and the different characters put a smile on my face! Can’t wait for more.
Whimsical Fun!

What a wonderfully fun little game. Such great attention to detail and charming characters to boot. A real treat!
Great music app for kids

My daughter loves this game. The app is pretty simple but interactive enough to be entertaining to a little one. Also the music and animation style is very well done. The music never feels too repetitive and the subtle changes as you swap out musicians are always pleasing. Can't wait to see the new "Mars Disco"!
Lesser knock-off of TOCA Band
Session47
An obvious copy of TOCA band, with less freedom and creativity. Comparing features: TB has a four-bar loop, MJ has a two-bar loop (on the free song). TB has more musicians. TB has the ability to place musicians at 3 levels which relate to prominence of their parts, greatly multiplying the complexity and playability. In TB you can "solo" with any musician. In MJ you can solo with 3 instruments. The freedom with those instruments is better, but it's disappointing that the keyboard and glock are pentatonic when the song is diatonic. kid's ears can handle a little dissonance and that's how they learn melodic tension. Also, what's with the fake "black key" in between every key? If it's pentatonic anyway just leave those out instead of teaching something wrong. Suggestion for making this a great feature, and an easy change to program: create a "difficulty" setting with 3 levels: pentatonic,diatonic, and chromatic, with appropriate changes to the look of the interface instruments. 3 hours of development work maybe. The option to expand with other songs is the only thing that Melody Jams has over TOCA Band at this point. But having each song offer more freedom to create is what would make that advantage meaningful.
Handcrafted Charm

Great game. There is a nice variety of characters and instruments. All with distinct personalities and animations. The music was original and not just a generic kids melody and the design is clean and easy to navigate. Well done. Hope to see more from these guys.
Cool if you can't get Toca band.

This is free so, if you can't get what this is based off of (Toca band), then this is good.
