This is hilarious. Works on the deck with gyro.
We need console versions. Preferably with a trombone shell for the joycons!
Trombone Champ devs - if you're reading, please bring this to console

Had a great time watching NL play it, would definitely pick up if it did come to console.
my brother showed me this tonight and they are onto a winner there. If this isn't streamed by everyone with a twitch account by October then there is no justice.
Elden Ring? God of War Ragnarok? Nah, this is the GOTY right here.

Trombones. Hot dogs. Baboons. Collectible cards. Lore. Trombone Champ has it all.
I think this is the first time i've realized im just old because you'd have to pay me to play through those sounds and visuals
Yeah, same here. Funny, clever, but it's like a game idea for a sketch comedy that's funny for 5 minutes, and at the end of the five minutes, you're like, I've been good on this for about 2.5 minutes, and my chuckles are now kind of just slight nasal exhales.
Good on devs for the idea and making bank!

Wow, didn't know about this. What an awesome spin on the rhythm genre, very clever. Going to check this out later!

Yes.

Mouse controls the pitch, but you can press keys to simulate the 'blow'. You can map to gyro on Steam Deck or if you have a gyro capable controller.
It's crazy but I feel like Wii Music might have worked if they had realised how ridiculous it looked and geared it towards online/streamable/shareable audio comedy.
Also, apologies - I hadn't spotted earlier threads like this one - I was just too excited
HOLY CRAP this might be the funniest game I've ever seen. Everyone stop what you're doing and watch this immediately. (Trombone Champ- Northernlion)
I was working and had NL on the other monitor and he started to play this game...and I couldn't work anymore. I had tears in my eyes, this is so so good. Genius. https://www.twitch.tv/videos/1592543800?t=02h19m30s Skip to 2hr 19min if the time stamp doesn't work. (best to watch this on Twitch...

You move the mouse up and down to change pitch and you can click the left mouse button or any keyboard key to blow
Definitely had me sensibly chuckling for approximately 20 seconds but after that I was like yeah nah, I would never actually play this shit. And I'm a guy who will still pull up the Jurassic Park Melodica video for a good laugh.
This would be incredible on Switch being able to play with two controllers simulating a trombone.
Yes.

I have shown my ignorance this day! 😓
In my defence, I think he's a lover of all things brass (I spy trombones at 20s... I hope that's what they are anyway):

Haha I only know because of GCSE music and the kids that were made to play them!

Is there any video of this with Gyro? I'm really curious how it looks and work on Deck before purchasing
Honestly, having played a a few songs, I'm not sure how it would work on a controller. Maybe something like a flick stick approach or gyro?

Just tilting on the Y axis I think in this video, but I think it may be configurable
It's funny, but it gives me Cards Against Humanity vibes in that it's at its funniest during everyone's first time playing, and then becomes drastically less so very very quickly.
You could do 1:1 tracking of the Y-axis of the joystickstick to the cursor. If you hold the stick to the left or right, and then move up and down, you can have pretty good control and precision of the vertical placement of the stick. Whether or not you could satisfyingly cover the vertical range on screen I don't know.
Yeah to be clear, it actually has this and I tried it, but let's just say it's not a good way to play lol. I'm sure there are some people who that works for, but I don't think the control is fine enough for most people on a console.
EDIT: I think I misunderstood what you were describing. I meant to say there is joystick control but it's not how you described. What I think you described is actually exactly what I was referring to when I mentioned flickstick like control might work.

Yup, this is a funny game. Been playing it with gyro on my Deck (thanks for the heads up cause the trackpad was NOT doing it for me), and it's just fun to play.
How long will I play it for? Not sure yet. But it's very entertaining even playing solo, and I can imagine it'd be more fun with an audience.
