this is NOT an another Sim City clone
that lovely town in the picture is a music sequencer
for real
the houses, lamps, trees, flowers etc are the sounds
and the cars play the music
you gotta try Isle of Tune, you will love it

this weeks cutie is not a video
it’s something to make music with
Raindrop Melody Maker is a kindda supersweet sequencer
come on call the kids and spend some quality time with them
