The Drum Master Scratch
Do you know about the game “The Drum Master” made by Bandai Namco Entertainment Inc.? It’s a super fun rhythm game. The best parts of this game are definitely its simplicity and the wide variety of music.
First off, the controls are really easy. There’s this big drum, and you just hit it with sticks according to what’s on the screen. As the musical notes flow, you hit the drum with a “Don” or a “Katsu”. It really boosts your sense of rhythm.
What’s more, the game features a wide range of music. From poppy J-POP, to classical, to anime songs, it’s truly diverse. Finding your favorite song and getting absorbed in drumming it out is so much fun.
Plus, playing alone is fine, but it’s even more enjoyable with friends or family. When everyone is drumming in rhythm together, it gets really lively and enhances communication.
I think it’s a perfect game for those who love music games. You can enjoy music, improve your rhythm skills, and have a great time, whether alone or with friends. Once you try it, you’re sure to get hooked!

The Notes and Credit section includes a record of bug fixes and improvements made by the author, and you can learn quite a bit just by reading it.

Summary of the author’s notes
Ultimate Sister Flandre S in Taiko no Tatsujin Easy Mode
– Tap ‘f’ and ‘j’ for Don (drum sound).
– Tap ‘d’ and ‘k’ for Ka (rim sound).
– Made with 100% pen scripting.
– Score, hit count, combo, and judgement? Too complex to explain.
– Off-sync at the end? Not sure.
– Likes appreciated but not asked for.

At first, it starts slow but gets faster and faster. The score increases with each combo, so you get a lot of points early on. But when it gets faster… Man! It’s like Taiko No Tatsujin met a clicker game – such a cool combo! The game sparks lots of creative ideas. Also, seeing Scratch characters like Gobo on the notes is hilarious lol.

Translation:
Hearing the catchy “Te-Te-Tette-Tette~♪” as Kirby runs is so cool! Kirby running is just too cute! But when I’m watching Kirby, I can’t play the drums! I want to watch him run forever, but I also want to hit those drums… This game is the perfect collaboration between Taiko no Tatsujin and Kirby. By the way, isn’t the instruction section below the game screen super easy to understand? I was impressed. Such a great idea.

A rhythm game in the style of Taiko no Tatsujin. The music is the Final Demon Sister Flandre S.
I’m not good at this type of games, but there were many comments that gave it a pretty high score, so the difficulty level would be normal for this kind of games.

Taiko Drum Master, itself!
It’s so complete you can’t tell it from the real Taiko Drum Master!
The only difference may be the difficulty level, even in “easy” mode.
Still, it’s a very good reproduction and I’m desperately addicted to it.
I think this is worth remixing in various ways.

Taiko Drum Master made by a 5th grader! So, wow. Don Kang’s illustrations are tasteful and wonderful.
They also incorporate original elements, which makes me think this kind of Taiko Drum Master Scratch is great.
I also like that it starts the moment you hit the green flag!
It is quite hard if you set the variable “level” to 10.

Difficulty! Kagero Days’ Taiko Drum Master.
Since only one difficult or devil level is provided, I personally can’t beat the score at all…
I heard that Don-chan’s background changes when you clear the game, so please try.
I wasn’t able to practice, but I heard that if you can achieve 100 combos, it adds 10000 points to your score.

The author here has recently divided each song into separate projects, so there is no song selection phase and you can suddenly select a difficulty level and hit it!
Anyways, I want to beat the drum as fast as possible, and if I don’t beat the drum within 5 seconds, I get withdrawal symptoms! I highly recommend it. It didn’t fail to load either.
By the way, there is also an auto mode, where you can press the Q key during the difficulty selection phase, and it will automatically pound away at you. The replay video above is also in auto mode, of course (laughs)

.
There are many keys that can be struck. As for the finger set position, I think I would place my left index finger on the G key and my right index finger on the H key, and from there I would keep touching the keys while shifting each finger one at a time.
