Rhythm Mode, Android, Visual Improved, Add Smaller-Keyboard Support, Guides
Big updates to start the new year (as usual heavily-based on user ideas mostly from PianoGlow's Discord server):
Rhythm Training Mode: Train using rhythm, thanks @Nyx for the idea
Improved Visuals: Ocean notebeam style, flare light on piano keys and ocean-style effect on piano key presses. Some of the theme settings as a result has been reset for some users. The ocean theme looks best with dark backgrounds for now (either low background opacity or no background).
Mobile releases/updates:
Android version has released! With fixes and lower file size.
iOS will be updated in a few days with these updates.
Website improved with guides (www.pianoglow.com): You can also right-click on the game modes to open these guides. Thanks @Skillex and a few users suggesting guides.
Better Falling Notes - Notebeam, Improved Text Placement: Line guides, forced no Babel, clearer text while practicing, etc. Thanks @Kor who emailed me these ideas.
Support smaller keyboards:
Under Piano > Settings > Num Keys To Show you can now show 25/32/37 keys.
In QWERTY Type Mode you can click "Fit Notes To Keyboard" which automatically adjusts the QWERTY sheets to fit with these notes.
In the play icon (F2) you can also upload a MIDI and convert the notes to fit a smaller keyboard.
Thanks @Kor who emailed me feedback and ideas about this.
[ or ]: Auto-mode in the QWERTY type test mode to preview the notes in the game mode. Also renamed the difficulty setting to something more intuitive as it was not obvious. Thanks @andrii_gora for the ideas.
Setting Presets:
At the bottom-right corner of the settings page, you can set and rename up to 10 setting presets. Thanks @imuradi for the idea!
Appreciate the positive Steam reviews as it helps - the best reviews have been highlighted in PianoGlow's Steam Store Page!
Happy new year! 新年快乐! С Новым Годом). May the new year 2026 bring happiness, good progress in life and be full of great piano experiences and practice!
Best,
