Referred to me

Describe the scope of work in detail. Please include a summary of key deliverables.

Recreation of a game's functionality and UI as a foundation point.
1 - Global Clock - ball in the middle of the screen that functions as a clock sending out pulses that act as triggers for samples when present.  
2 - Game Mechanic -  when the player taps the screen a meter overlay shows the incoming audio level via microphone from device or external microphone. Once meter reaches a certain level in amplitude the recording starts. The recording only stops once two conditions are satisfied. first condition is the sound falls below meters threshold. and second condition is that player removes their finger from the screen. All this happening while the clock is running. The recording is then represented as a ball rolling around the clock on the screen.  
3 - Preset Backing track - if you watch the video there is musical note icon with 3 options. The icon serves as a audio backing track for loops recorded to play over.  Addition features:  
4 - Panning for each recorded loop (the same loop that is rolling ball, panning can be represented by tilting the axis the ball is rolling on left or right)   
5 - Local Loop playback speed: "Control over the playback speed for each individual audio recording" (or each rolling ball).  
6 - Global tempo Control: adjusting the clock coming from the ball in the center. Slowest BPM: 60 and fastest BPM: 300  
7 - Loop Export: each individual loop (Rolling ball) recorded can be exported to wav file  
8 - Global Save File: The game can be saved and exported as a profile. (this would allow other people to play each others levels and hear the sounds made   
Platform is for android and web. Overall goal is to create a game mechanic that could also function as a tool. A fun, yet functional approach on modern video games that leverage excitement while sacrificing real world utility. Target audience is Sound designers, Music Producers, composers, musicians, and artists.

The most impressive quality was the professionalism in character or Customer service. Many companies will use mistakes as an opportunity to charge more fees. Elogio Interactive used those mistakes as an opportunity to display character and developement high trust relationship. This Company never once blamed me for my short comings, but instead provided actionable recommendations, and in some cases took the initiative to preemptively fix issues. Issues that I would then be notified about via project updates/demos, for approval.
