    Both tunes as notes falling onto a keyboard per voice — mute one, slow it down.

    The same two tunes as scores, read bar by bar — every note out of the cartridge.

    The score of Track 1 (jingle)The score of In-game (carrier → flight)

Will Wright's first game: a helicopter off a carrier, bombing the Bungeling Empire's factories. Its level editor grew into SimCity — and its music is two short tunes.

Nothing here was transcribed by ear: every note was read out of the cartridge and is played by an emulated NES sound chip — two pulse waves and a triangle, each on a keyboard of its own.

The music and the game belong to their composers and publishers; this site only shows how the cartridge plays it, for learning.
