I suspect it might be illegal for me to get this working and not make a Lights Out clone on it as the first game?
This is Godot, communicating with a Launchpad Pro MK3 over Midi, using code I've made that lets me add extra effects, like the rainbow fade on pads and buttons 🎉🌈

There is a small possibility that in moment of weakness I've decided to try to see if I can hook Godot up to this thing in order to make some very shiny puzzles with a weird controller?
So far I've gotten it sending Midi data to Godot, and receiving colour data in return, which is cool!

So, “Order of the Sinking Star” by Thekla was just announced, which takes several small free games (two of which are mine) and gives them a major graphical upgrade and mashes up their rulesets. I haven’t been very involved but it’s a great concept and looks cool.
