Carillon

A marble-music machine you build by hand — drop emitters, chimes and ramps, then let gravity carry marbles down to play the melody.

How to play

Lay out a contraption on the canvas: emitters release marbles, ramps and deflectors steer their fall, and chimes ring a note whenever a marble strikes them. Place and angle your parts so the marbles bounce through them in rhythm, and the whole machine becomes an instrument that plays itself.

• Place emitters to spawn marbles and chimes to sound notes.
• Use ramps and deflectors to route and time where the marbles land.
• Run the machine and tweak part positions until the melody clicks into place.

Game modes

• Daily — a seeded starting layout or theme to build around each day.
• Practice — a free sandbox to construct and tune your own contraptions.

Controls

• Desktop: click to place parts and drag to position them; pointer dragging is fully supported.
• Phone & tablet: tap to place and drag to move parts — touch friendly.

Tips & strategy

• Small angle changes shift a marble's timing a lot — nudge ramps rather than rebuilding.
• Stagger emitters to layer notes into chords and rhythms.
• Let one run finish before adjusting; watching the full fall shows where the timing drifts.
