MetaThesia is a fork of Neothesia by PolyMeilex, enhanced with a few additional scenes, including game stats and a MIDI folder viewer etc. For more details on what’s changed, check out the commits or changelog.
This project is mostly inactive due to limited time, and frankly, it works for my needs. Barring any major bugs that interfere with usability, there likely won’t be new updates.
If you encounter bugs, you can try the original project, or feel free to open an issue here. With a bit of luck, we might be able to address it!
Neothesia is a cross-platform MIDI visualizer, build completely in Rust. It helps people to quickly learn how to play piano. It takes music notes from a MIDI file as an input and displays them as colorful falling blocks on a virtual piano.
Opensource Synthesia was abandoned in favour of closed source commercial project
Goal of this project is to bring back Opensource Synthesia to live, and make it look and work as good (or even better) than commercial Synthesia.
