Game 1 Unit 29 of 64 1 hr learning time
Song 6 - Mixed Techniques
Adding a sixth song that combines basic rhythm, syncopation, and polyrhythms. 'Fusion' tests every skill developed throughout the game in one comprehensive challenge.
45% of SID Symphony
Learning individual skills is one thing. Applying them together is another. Our sixth song, “Fusion,” combines basic rhythm, syncopation, and polyrhythms into a comprehensive test of everything players have learnt.
This unit adds a song that synthesises all previous techniques while reorganising the menu to accommodate six songs.
Run It
Assemble and run:
acme -f cbm -o symphony.prg symphony.asm
The menu now shows six songs with “Fusion” at 130 BPM. This song doesn’t introduce new mechanics—it combines existing ones in challenging ways.
What Makes Fusion Different
Each previous song focused on one technique:
| Song | BPM | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| First Steps | 120 | Basic timing |
| Upbeat Groove | 130 | Track variety |
| Speed Rush | 150 | Fast reactions |
| Off-Beat | 125 | Syncopation |
| Chordstorm | 136 | Polyrhythms |
| Fusion | 130 | All combined |
Fusion doesn’t add new skills—it demands players use all skills simultaneously.
Pattern Design Philosophy
Easy mode introduces combinations gently:
song6_easy:
!byte 0, 1, $47 ; Strong beat
!byte 4, 2, $3B ; Basic rhythm
!byte 8, 1, $47
!byte 8, 2, $3B ; Simple 2-note chord
!byte 14, 3, $27 ; Off-beat (syncopation)Players encounter each element—basic beats, simple chords, off-beats—with breathing room between challenges.
Normal Mode: Building Complexity
Normal mode layers techniques within sections:
song6_normal:
; Section 1: Basic + syncopation
!byte 0, 1, $47 ; Strong downbeat
!byte 2, 2, $3B ; Quick follow
!byte 6, 3, $27 ; Off-beat
; Section 2: Add chords
!byte 16, 1, $47 ; 2-note chord
!byte 16, 2, $3B
; Section 3: Full mix
!byte 32, 1, $47 ; 3-note chord
!byte 32, 2, $3B
!byte 32, 3, $27Each section adds complexity, building to full integration in section 3.
Hard Mode: Maximum Challenge
Hard mode throws everything at once:
song6_hard:
; Section 1: Fast basic + syncopation
!byte 0, 1, $47
!byte 1, 2, $3B
!byte 2, 3, $27
!byte 3, 1, $58 ; Off-beat
!byte 8, 1, $47 ; 2-note chord
!byte 8, 2, $3BNotes arrive every beat, chords appear frequently, and off-beats disrupt expected patterns. Players need automatic responses to each technique.
Menu Reorganisation
With six songs, the menu needed restructuring:
; Song positions (rows)
; Row 8: First Steps
; Row 10: Upbeat Groove
; Row 12: Speed Rush
; Row 14: Off-Beat
; Row 16: Chordstorm
; Row 18: Fusion
; Row 20: Difficulty
; Row 21: Practice
; Row 22: Speed
; Row 23: EndlessSongs use even rows (8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18), creating visual spacing. Options moved to rows 20-23.
Cursor Expansion
The cursor now handles six positions:
draw_cursor:
; Clear all cursor positions
lda #CHAR_SPACE
sta SCREEN + (8 * 40) + 12
sta SCREEN + (10 * 40) + 12
sta SCREEN + (12 * 40) + 12
sta SCREEN + (14 * 40) + 12
sta SCREEN + (16 * 40) + 12
sta SCREEN + (18 * 40) + 12Each new song adds one row to clear and one position to draw.
Song Setup Pattern
Song 6 follows the established pattern:
setup_song6:
lda #TEMPO_SONG6
sta frames_per_beat
lda #LENGTH_SONG6
sta song_length
; Select difficulty variant
lda difficulty
cmp #DIFF_EASY
beq load_s6_easy
cmp #DIFF_NORMAL
beq load_s6_normal
jmp load_s6_hardThe structure is identical to other songs—only the data pointers differ.
High Score Table Growth
With six songs and three difficulties, we need 18 high score entries:
; High Score Table (6 songs x 3 difficulties = 18 entries)
high_scores:
; Songs 1-5...
; Song 6 (Fusion)
!word 0 ; Easy
!word 0 ; Normal
!word 0 ; HardThe index formula (song × 3) + difficulty handles all 18 entries automatically.
Skill Synthesis Value
Why create a “fusion” song rather than just more technique-specific songs?
- Transfer testing - Can players apply skills in new contexts?
- Adaptive switching - Must quickly shift between technique mindsets
- Pattern recognition - Identifying which technique a pattern requires
- Confidence building - Success proves comprehensive mastery
Difficulty Progression Across Songs
The full song progression now follows a learning curve:
| Song | Primary Skill | Secondary Skills |
|---|---|---|
| First Steps | Timing | - |
| Upbeat Groove | Track variety | Timing |
| Speed Rush | Speed | Timing, variety |
| Off-Beat | Syncopation | Timing |
| Chordstorm | Polyrhythms | Timing |
| Fusion | Integration | All of above |
Players who complete Fusion on Hard have demonstrated mastery of the complete skill set.
