Scratchin' Melodii

Scratchin' Melodii is, put simply, an Indie Rhythm Game in the style of PaRappa the Rapper.

The story follows the titular Melodii, a child who is contacted by government agents for, of all things, spray-painting graffiti on a wall. After having a vandalism charge slapped onto them, Melodii is made to gather "Community Service Points" through — what else — community service to pay off the damages.

With their trusty AGES NoteStar in hand, not even the scariest and most hostile of rivals can stand against Melodii!

Gameplay is similar to that of PaRappa, but with more buttons; the Rival spits some bars, and depending on the color of the bar, the player must either REPEAT or SUPPORT the Rival's notes.

"If the LINE stays BLUE, you REPEAT the bar. If the LINE turns PINK, you SUPPORT the bar."
 * Bait and Switchː During the intro for "Grease Poppin'", Synthz McWave comes out of the male restroom, and the female restroom is in clear view. Not one second later, the camera suddenly pans to the right, revealing a third restroom with a musical note. No points for guessing who comes out of that restroom.
 * Childhood Friendsː If the picture of a baby Melodii being babysat by the Sweetz Siblings is anything to go by, Melodii, Cinnabay, and Biggie Cheesecake were all childhood friends.
 * Color-Coded for Your Convenience: During DJ Battles, the musical bars are colored either blue or pink depending on whether you must REPEAT or SUPPORT the Rival's notes. Say it with me:


 * Disappeared Dadː Melodii, while giving Jamtine romantic advice, offhandedly mentions that their father had abandoned them shortly after they were born, and warns Jamtine against having children if she wants to keep her lover.
 * Expy
 * To paraphrase TV Tropes, Synthz McWave can best be described as "Ronald McDonald with an easygoing demeanor and a funkier look".
 * Melodii's design seems to take some cues from Frisk, the protagonist of Undertale; both Melodii and Frisk are nonbinary children with similar hairstyles.
 * Face Plant: There's a girl laying face-down on the road just outside Melodii's house. You can't interact with her, she's just... there...
 * "Simon Says" Mini-Game: The meat of the game.
