Can you hit the same notes as iconic singers?
Hit the High Notes, a game from Vole.wtf, mostly involves shrieking into your computer's poor, overworked mics. The game is entirely browser-based, so there's no need for add-ons. It starts with a warm-up note, and challenges players with progressively higher notes from history's groundbreaking artists to pop stars, each one more difficult to hit.
"You get to scream at your browser and feel a bit silly," game designer Matt Round said in a Twitter DM. "Whether you're a good or terrible singer, you're probably going to hit your limit, start making weird noises, and feel ridiculous."

Round himself can't sing, which made testing his code for pitch detection "rather tricky."
"Whenever I tried it myself it upset the dog," he said.
He got around it by using a synth app on his phones and using records of singers themselves. All in all, he says he still turns to browser games for a fun, easy way to have fun since coding and maintaining apps takes too much effort.
"I'm stubbornly trying to help keep the daft-web-game genre going," Round said, referring to silly browser games.
If you have a need to scream — because really, who doesn't — check out Hit the High Note.
