Announcing the Synthesia Learning Pack

Thu, 20 Dec 2007 22:32:20 -0400

Starting February 1st you'll be able to unlock the Synthesia Learning Pack in the game by purchasing an unlock key through this site. The Learning Pack will include the brand new sheet music display to begin with, and the number of features will grow with every new release of the game. Like the rest of the game, the Learning Pack will be a work in progress, so the price will start very low. The best part is that upgrades are free and unlock keys will work in all future versions of the game! So, purchasing an unlock key now will not only show your support for the project, but also reward you with a lower price for being an early adopter. An unlock key for personal use will start at $14 USD and increase slowly as the Learning Pack becomes more complete each release. More details will be coming after Dec-31, including a complete list of everything the Learning Pack will eventually include. Oh yeah, previous donors (of any amount) get an unlock key for free. You guys were the earliest adopters and, subsequently, are awesome.

Release Schedule Update

Thu, 20 Dec 2007 22:32:20 -0400

The holidays have been really hectic so I've had to push a few features out of the Dec-31 release until next time. To keep this from happening again, I'm switching to monthly releases. Starting immediately, keep an eye out at the beginning of every month for a new version of the game.
