It's a bit of a belated update, but on September 28th, Midinous turned 2! More specifically, it turned two from the date I put it on Steam, but I had been working on it since about 2019. If you've been following the development for awhile, you'll know that Midinous started out as a small-ish app built with the Ruby programming language. It was an absolute pain to develop and deliver to users. Most people simply couldn't get it running, which inspired me to rebuild it in C#. The repo still exists on my github page (Open Midinous Repo here) if you dare trying to get it to run or want to fork it. I've given up on that version, solely focusing my efforts on the C# .NET version these days.

I never thought I would release an app that so many people have used, or even looked into! My stats show that over 8000 people have used, or are using, Midinous. That's amazing! I know it doesn't seem like much when you have software like Baldur's Gate 3 pulling in over 300k reviews in its first few weeks, but I think people have to remember that this was a solo project. I do everything: marketing, development, bug fixing, support, media, licensing, etc.

I just wanted to say thank you. What I love most is seeing people who maybe have lost the drive to create pick up Midinous and feel reinvigorated. That's such a wonderful thing to hear from people and it helps me with my motivation to continue development.

That's where you come in. I've started a Patreon to help fund future features and updates. I don't ever want Midinous DLC or micro-transactions, so anything additional to the purchase of the program is completely optional through the Patreon process. Even if no one ever became a patron, I still would not plague my app with such things. Your added support is absolutely voluntary, but wholeheartedly welcomed.

Become a Patron

Your contributions, however small, help me build a better app and help me fund otherwise previously-impossible features. I appreciate all the support, patience, and kindness you've given me over the past two years. Keep creating.

Cheers,
Jae

-Added a trail to Pollution Crab during the escape.
-Fixed a few bugs with Gullcrab.
-Added a sound to checkpoints being acquired.

Simply go to the library tab and select "As Long As It's Not Illegal: ACT I"
From there, Locate the DLC area on the right and select "Manage My DLC"

To play ACT I Again:
• Uncheck ACT II and Last ACT

To play ACT II Again:
• Check ACT II
  
• Uncheck Last ACT

To play The Last ACT Again:
• The Last ACT behaves as expected and all three can be installed by this point without issue
  

This doesn't effect the carry over of choices and the game will still record what you've done in previous ACTs smoothly

Happy Gaming!
