10 years ago I began working on Muki, a web-based MIDI and chiptune player which I eventually announced here on HN[0]. It was a fun weekend project.

Over the years I received numerous requests from people that wanted more: more music, more features, more playable formats, you name it.

Eventually I began working on a complete rewrite of the app (this time for real), and, realizing that each year another chiptune or MIDI website went offline, I decided to start archiving them for preservation.

Today, 10 years after the first release, I think it's finally time for the new, nicer version to hit the shelves. It's now called Pixeltune and yes, now you can actually turn down the volume. :)

Hope you like it!

Really love this, kudos for making it! Can listen to the Sonic 2 soundtrack on loop for hours.

Just a note to say that on MacOS Safari none of the icons or fonts seem to want to load. Looking at the console it appears to be lots of CORS-related issues. I.e, "Cancelled load to <a package url> because it violates the resource's Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy response header."

Will check. Thanks for the heads up.
